Installation Guide

WARNING:

Cutting, sanding or machining wood products produces wood dust. While wood

products are not hazardous under OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29CFR

1910.1200), the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the State of

California has classiﬁed wood dust as a human carcinogen.

EXPECT THE NATURAL VARIATION OF WOOD:

All our wall planks are designed to highlight the natural variation of wood on structure

and in color. Each wood piece is different, but all together they create an ensure

consistency of the ﬁnal product visual. Sunlight or intense artiﬁcial lighting can cause

color changes.

SURFACE REQUIREMENTS:

The surface must be clean, dry, and structurally sound. The surface must be ﬂat to

within 1/4” over 48”

FIREPLACES & HEATERS:

NOT recommended the use of Holey Wood wall paneling around an open “ﬂame”

places. The wall planks are made from wood which is ﬂammable material.

BATHROOMS:

Wall planks may be used in bathrooms as long as they are NOT installed at high splash

areas.

CEILING APPLICATIONS:

Ceiling applications are possible as soon as you’re following the corresponding builder

codes. The length of the planks is exactly matching to the size of Armstrong grid

structure for suspended ceilings.

TRIMS:

Use trim of the same color range as wall planks for outlet trim, window trim, framing,

corners, etc.

We recommend square edge trim, which is commonly used when installing any wall

panels. Use WellDone thermo-treated S4S Poplar 1x2” or 1x3” as an option.

HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED?

Calculate the total surface area of the wall and add 10% for cutting and waste. The

coverage for each box is approx. 10 SF.

WALL PREPARATION:

Installing planks over existing true walls requires no preliminary preparation. Sanding

high spots on the wall is generally about all you have to do.
