KILTER BOARD FAQ
How Much Does a Kilter Board Cost?
You can see basic cost structure (and place a deposit) for both Original Kilter Board and Homewall Kilter Board systems on our site, depending on the size and options you choose. These costs do not include frame, mats, shipping or installation, but should give you a good idea of expense.

What size Kilter Board Should I Choose?
Plan the 16'x12' adjustable if you can fit it. If you can't, don't despair, 12'x12' and 8'x12' sizes are also good and share problems with the 16'x12'. If you can't fit these, we have a 7'x10' home size frame available with both the Original Layout and the new HW Fullride Layout. The HW Fullride Layout also comes in 10'x10', 8'x12' and 10'x12'. Sizing is stated as width x height, so 8'x12' is 8' wide and 12' tall. All the 12' tall versions also have a kickboard.
Should I Choose a HW Fullride Layout?
Featuring two overlapping layouts - get one for a lower price point entry or get both for a denser board! The 7' wide x 10' tall wall can be built at any angle from vertical to 70º overhanging. It is designed to fit under lower ceilings - you can build one at 40º in an 8' room! EXPANSION PACKS available for 10'x10' size, 8'x12' size, and 10'x12' size. All the larger sizes include all 7'x10' layout problems + additional rows or columns. The 10'x12' includes all the problems from all the smaller sizes.
What about the Original Kilter Board Layout?
The vast majority of Kilter Boards in gyms have the Original Layout. This layout with a fully adjustable frame means climbers of all abilities can climb on it. The lights make it intuitive for even non-climbers, and the most veteran climbers stay entertained at 45˚-60˚. Gyms reported the same - newer climbers, kids, and groups on the low angles and advanced climbers when it gets steeper. This means the Original Kilter Board can serve your entire customer base, from beginner to expert.
What about Texture?
We don't have texture on our boards and don't suggest it but there are some textured Kilter Boards in the world and they still work out fine.
