Slatwall Installation Techniques


We recommend professional installation of Slatwall Panels, by a licensed and insured General Commercial Contractor. However, if you chose to install panels yourself, following are some helpful tips.

Always consult your local and regional building codes and obtain the proper permits.


Preparation

Panels are installed with 2 1/2" to 3" long drywall screws into the wall studs. First, determine the type of wall stud material you are applying the slatwall panels to. For wood studs, you will need Coarse thread drywall screws, for extra holding power. Use self-tapping (self drilling) drywall screws for metal studs. Always level each Slatwall panel before installation.

Cutting Panels

Slatwall panels can be cut very easily. For straight cuts use a table saw and cut the panel face UP, or use a circular (skil) saw and cut the panel face DOWN. Use a sharp blade with 60-80 teeth.

For irregular shaped cuts, use a jig saw with a medium blade, approximatly 10 teeth per inch.


Installation


Drill screws THROUGH the Slatwall grooves INTO the studs. It will be necessary to locate and mark the lateral position of the wall studs prior to installation. Use a minimum of 24 screws, spaced evenly for each panel. For a more permanent installation, also use a general purpose panel adhesive, applied to the back of each slatwall panel.

If your slatwall panel has mil aluminum extrusions (groove inserts), use 2 1/2" to 3", #6 or larger, pan head screws. It will be necessary to first pre-drill a pilot hole through the groove insert.


Masonry Walls

Masonry walls should first be framed with wood studs, to meet local building codes. Then slatwall panels can be attached directly to the newly installed wood studs. slatwall tips
