A fallboard is the hinged cover on the front of a piano that protects the keys and internal components when the piano is not in use. It can be lifted or lowered to access the keyboard. When the fallboard is closed, it helps keep dust and debris away from the keys and prevents accidental damage. It also serves as a safety feature to prevent fingers or objects from accidentally getting caught in the piano. The fallboard is typically made of wood or a similar material that matches the piano’s exterior.
