OUTDECO USA Indoor/Outdoor Panels

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Follow these instructions and recommendations for a professional installation within

warranty, and to avoid damaging the panel.

PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

We recommend following best building practices for installing OUTDECO USA panels

in accordance with their intended purpose. Examples shown in this document are installation suggestions. Adjust installation

congurations to meet your specic project requirements. If in doubt, consult a professional. We recommend checking with proper

authorities about building codes/standards that may apply to your project.

OUTDECO USA panels have a 10-Year Limited Warranty for material integrity when installed on a vertical plane, as on a wall or fence.

Installations on a horizontal plane, as a roof or ceiling, are not covered by the warranty. Installers assume responsibility for the installation.

Frames &

Support

Structures

OUTDECO USA panels must be mounted to a frame or an existing surface or

structure. They are not a stand-alone structural product.

Timber or metal frames can be attached to walls, fences, and other ﬂat surfaces, or

built as free-standing structures with panels mounted.

BENEFITS OF USING A FRAME

Using a frame allows for the sturdiest and most versatile panel installation

and results in a professional, polished look. Frame structures can be built

to almost any size, orientation, or form – as simple or sophisticated as your

project requires.

• Facilitates precise panel alignment and squared edges before attaching.

• Prevents damage to surfaces when adjusting, adding, or removing panels.

• Minimizes the number of fasteners going into an existing structure and

reduces the number screws or nails visible along the edges of your panels.

• Offsets panels from surfaces, allowing for airﬂow and expansion/contraction space;

creates a dimensional shadow effect and provides space for backlighting.

Surface-Mount

Mount panels on fences, walls,

and other ﬂat surfaces.

Free-Standing

Create a divider or fence on a

frame with posts set in cement.

Fence/Wall Extension

Mount panels above a fence

or wall for additional height.

FRAME TYPES – For installations with multiple or single panels
