Step 2

Decide at what height and location you would like your Proslat panels section.

You must start & finish on studs. Studs should be centered 16 in (40.6 cm) apart in order to supports 75 lb (34 kg) per square foot.

In order to support 75 lbs (34 kg) per square foot, your studs must be a maximum of 16 in apart.

Step 3

Once you have choosen your location, verify that you are starting and finishing on a stud and locate and mark all studs between starting and finishing with your stud finder as you will need to screw each panel into each stud.

Step 4

Use snips to cut one of your J trims at 96 in (2.44m) for the bottom horizontal trim.

• If you are installing only one section (4 ft high), go to step 5A.
• If you are installing more than one section high, go to step 5B.

Step 5

5A (One section) – Cut one of your J trims in two pieces of 48 ½ in (1.23 m).

5B (Two sections high) – Cut your second J trim to 96 ½ in (2.45 m). Open your second box and retrieve one of the J trims and cut it to 96 ½ in (2.45 m)

Step 6

For this step, it is best to have two (2) people. Install your bottom horizontal J trim at desired starting height (the wider side installs against the wall), level and screw into the middle 5 studs. Do not screw into the first and last studs.

Step 7

Overlap your vertical trim with your horizontal trim (the wider side installs against the wall) and screw through both. Level vertical trim and install one screw at the top. Repeat on the other side. Your panels will be screwed through the J trims holding both in place.

Step 8

To install the first panel, insert one end of your panel (left or right) into the vertical J trim and slightly curve the panel so it will insert into the other vertical J trim. Make sure your panel is seated into bottom J trim and is level. Screw through the upper cavity of the panel into each stud (16-in apart). Drive screws at either end of the panel through the J trim and into your stud. This will hold your vertical J trims to the wall.

Step 9

Insert the next Proslat panel into one of your vertical J trims, interlocking the panel with the one below it. Curve your panel and insert into the J trim on the other side, again interlocking the panel with the one below it. Push down on the panel to overlap with the panel below it, making sure it is properly seated and level. Make sure you screw into every stud before installing the next panel.
Repeat until your section is done, verifying level every 3 panels.
Properly interlocked panels will conceal previous panel’s installation screws.

Properly overlapped

Step 10

Install your top L trims by simply clipping them into the lip above the screw cavity.

Installing wider than 8 ft (2.44 m)

Some kits contain an extra J & L to install in a 2’ x 16’ configuration.

If you are installing two 4 ft (1.2 m) panels side by side, you will need to use two J trims back to back to hide the joint. Or, you can order additional H trims from our website.
