STACKING PANELS
To allow temperature and humidity to equalize, stack
panels at least three high in work area. Do not stack
directly on concrete floor.
SUGGESTED TOOLS
24" level, tape measure, pencil, chalk line, circular saw,
cordless or corded drill with screwdriver attachment.
SUPPLIES
1½" to 2" drywall screws or equivalent, panel adhesive,
(optional) roundhead screws for metal inserts.
NOTE: Ensure that screw heads fit easily into
grooves.
GENERAL
1.
Install over studs, plaster, furring strips or drywall.
Panel adhesive recommended.
2. Use drywall screws of proper length.
3. Install screw in every other groove on each stud.
4. Drive screws into grooves. Be careful not to damage
edges of grooves.
STARTING OFF
Snap chalk line at desired height on wall. Mark location
of studs on floor and ceiling (for mounting panels later).
To ensure clean installation on projects requiring more
than one panel, begin with a narrow panel first and
finish with full panel.
FIRST PANEL
Following manufacturer's directions, spread adhesive
vertically on back of panel (half-tube of adhesive per
panel). Raise first panel to chalk line and install screw
through top of groove into stud near one of upper
corners.
REMAINING PANELS
Repeat process on bottom row of panels, ensuring that
grooves and factory edges line up from panel to panel.
On installations without drywall (such as garages), make
sure end of each panel is centered in middle of stud.

GENERAL INFORMATION
METAL STUDS
Wood screws do not hold well in metal studs. Use
wooden blocking whenever necessary.
BLOCK OR CONCRETE WALLS
First mount vertical or horizontal furring strips on wall.
Installing slatwall directly on concrete or block walls is
not recommended.
INSTALLATION
CUTTING PANELS
When using circular saw, use a straight edge guide for
saw to follow. Never cut freehand. Always cut from front
(finished side) of panel.
CUTTING PANELS WITH ALUMINUM INSERTS
It is not necessary to remove aluminum inserts from
grooves when cutting panels.
CLEANUP
Remove any adhesive or marking on face of panels with
a solvent, such as lacquer thinner. Clean panels with
mild household cleaner and dry with soft cloth.
