Why should you invest in Custom Displays?
-
Attraction and Engagement
Custom displays are visually appealing and can capture the attention of customers more effectively than standard shelving. Unique designs, vibrant colors, and thematic elements related to hobbies can draw in both casual browsers and serious enthusiasts.
-
Creating an Experience
Hobby stores often cater to niche markets where the shopping experience is as important as the products themselves. Custom displays can create an immersive environment that resonates with customers' interests and passions, enhancing their overall shopping experience.
-
Maximizing Space
Hobby stores are often challenged with limited retail space. Well-designed custom displays can optimize the use of available space, allowing stores to present more products in an organized and accessible manner leading to increased sales per sqft.
-
Building Brand Identity
Custom displays can be tailored to reflect the store’s brand identity and aesthetic, creating a cohesive and memorable shopping environment. Strong branding helps build customer loyalty and differentiates the store from competitors.
-
Encouraging Impulse Buys
Strategically placed custom displays near checkout areas can prompt impulse purchases. By highlighting small, enticing items that customers might not have initially intended to buy, stores can increase their average transaction value and drive higher margin sales.
-
Social Interaction
Custom displays that incorporate seating areas, tables, or play spaces can encourage players to gather, play, and socialize. A welcoming environment where players can meet and engage with each other can foster a strong community and increase foot traffic and business growth.

What do I need to begin the custom display process?
We require a registered wholesale account, active business license, an active commercial lease, and a floor plan of your commercial location.
What does Hobby Guard need to help customize our displays?
In order to effectively customize displays, we will need Adobe Illustrator files of your businesses logo, as well as any brand guidelines your company may have in place. We also have examples of various displays we can share with clients to help decide on the types of displays they would like. We also more than welcome example photos from businesses you have seen.
Do you offer contractor / installation services?
Hobby Guard is strictly a designer and manufacturer of hobby supplies and retail display solutions. We do not provide construction or installation services, but do have experience working with contractors for new store buildouts.
How are custom displays shipped and delivered?
Displays will be shipped through Ocean Freight and will arrive at your nearest port. Final delivery will be made through FTL/LTL tailgate delivery unless customers have a loading dock available.
Is there a Design Fee?
Each unique customized display will have an associated design fee.
Do you have a minimum order quantity for custom displays?
This is decided on a per project basis. If Hobby Guard is developing multiple custom fixtures for a store buildout, there is no MOQ per unique display. If Hobby Guard is developing a few custom displays, typically there is a MOQ of 2 per custom display.
How soon in the process can you provide a ballpark project estimate?
Once we have a copy of your floorplan and an idea of how much of your store you are looking to cover and what types of displays, we can then provide ballpark costs for displays and shipping.
