Slatwall Installation

Level - all panels before installing.....when installing horizontal panels always level the bottom panel first.

For installation on walls, horizontal panels provide a longer more seamless appearance than vertical slatwall, because they are installed in pairs with the seam hidden in the channel where the panels are butted together.

Directional - arrows or lines on the back or side of the panels must all be facing in the same direction.

If slots do not line up, see note about directional - arrows or lines above.

Cut panels face up with a table saw, face down with a skill saw.
Use a sharp blade with at least a 60-80 teeth count.
Slatwall panels may be affixed over existing walls (i.e. Drywall or wall paneling) or directly to studs in new construction (if local codes permit).
Use 2-inch drywall screws (or larger) installed through the grooves.
For panels with extrusions, use 2-inch or larger #6 pan head screws, first drilling a pilot hole through the extrusion.
Use at least 24 evenly spaced screws throughout the panel.
Panel - adhesive may also be applied to the back of the panel for a more secure or permanent installation.
