Installing your WallDesign Panels

The following are illustrations of all the tools and accessories needed

to successfully install your WallDesign panels.

A simple precaution will guarantee

the problem-free installation of your

long-lasting panels.

Take into account the humidity level

of the room where you will

be installing your panels.

Above all, store your WallDesign

panels for a period of 48 to 72 hours

in the room where you plan to install

them. It is essential that they become

acclimatized to the room temperature

and humidity.

For wood-based products, the humidity

level has an impact on the wood’s

expansion and contraction. The relative

humidity of the room must not be less

than 30 % or more than 50 %.

Reinforce each joint with this helpful hint. Apply adhesive to the joints to prevent them from separating. Then, simply remove the excess adhesive.
