MDF Wall Kit (WPKT4) Fitting Instructions
Measure up from top of skirting board to your preferred panelling height. Mark
position and draw horizontal line across.
Check with spirit level (Fig 1).
Measure length of wall. Mark and cut enough strips to run across top of
skirting and across horizontal line previously drawn.
Apply adhesive to backs of strips (Fig 2)
Offer strips into position and secure with nail gun (Fig 3).
To work out how many panels you require, measure wall length and subtract width of 1 panel strip. (Fig 4).
Example:
- Wall length = 2000mm
- Width of wall panel strip = 97mm
- 2000mm – 97mm = 1903mm
- Divide this dimension by how many panels you prefer. In this example we are using 3 panels
- 1903mm divided by 3 = 634mm centres
- The actual distance between panel strips will be 634mm minus width of 1 panel strip
- 634mm – 97mm = 537mm between strips
Measure distance between top and bottom strips and cut 4 vertical anel strips. Apply adhesive to back of strips. Offer 2 strips between horizontal strips , placing one of them at each end of the run. Secure with nail gun (Fig 5).

figure worked out in Fig 4 ie 537mm between strips. Secure with nail gun (Fig
