Installation Advice:

AquaGuard panels are suitable for horizontal or vertical alignment and have been designed with easy installation in mind.

You can mount the panels to most interior surfaces including brick, concrete, plasterboard, and battens - providing the substrate is sound, dry and dust-free. Simply secure using either a high-strength Easy Panels cladding adhesive or 38mm black drywall screws.

To fix the panels to the wall using adhesive, we recommend using Easy Panels High-Strength Cladding Adhesive. You will need 2 tubes for each panel.

Apply the adhesive liberally to the reverse of the panel in a vertical zig-zag formation before securing it in place. To prevent the adhesive exuding, maintain a distance of around 50mm from the panel edge. 

When screwing the panels to timber battens or plasterboard, we recommend purchasing a pack of black drywall screws and fixing through the felt base at 200mm intervals across the width, and 800mm intervals down the length of the panel. Ensure outer screws are kept at least 50mm away from the edge of the panel. Black screws provide a discreet fixing against the black felt backing.

If you are wanting to install the panels over wallpaper, we’d suggest screwing them to the substrate. Wallpaper paste cannot guarantee to provide the necessary strength required for the wood panels to adhere to. 

To begin installing your panels, align them from left to right along your wall, ensuring the half lap joint is on the right and the first slat is flush with the edge of the wall. The lip on the base has been designed to interlock seamlessly with the adjoining panel to disguise any joins and present a flawless finish.

When cutting the panels to size, we advise using a fine-toothed handsaw for higher precision in place of powered tools. A finer cut will help to eliminate any spurs and splintered edges. A sharp safety knife can be used to slice the backing vertically.

To install lightweight fixtures, such as picture hangings, you will need to pierce the backing and affix to the substrate. Do not use the slats on the panel to support any decorative fixtures. For heavy fixtures, such as TV mounts or shelving, please install these prior to fitting the panels and later cut the panel to accommodate such features. 

To finish any exposed edges on the panel, we recommend purchasing and installing our End Trim. These finishing trims are available in a range of colours to match your chosen panel, and they will hide the exposed edge of the black backing, giving the impression of a solid slat edge.

To keep your panels looking great, we recommend using a soft cloth or sponge (non-abrasive) and a mild detergent such as washing-up liquid, diluted in warm water. Dampen the cloth with the cleaning solution and wipe down from top to bottom. Rinse thoroughly before drying the panels with a microfibre cloth to avoid any streaks.

Note: Avoid using abrasive textiles or chemical cleaning products, as these will damage the protective coating and surface appearance of the panel.
