- Find high point of floor, check to see if the project has a pre-set horizontal benchmark. If not set your own horizontal benchmark.
- Using string lines or a laser, shim, glue, and screw all horizontal furring into place. Furring is not required if the walls are reasonably flat.
- Layout the perimeter of the panels on the walls with a blue chalk line. Confirm that the panel layout is workable with field alignment, electrical and any other requirements.
- The reveals can be quickly painted, or you can use 1/32†plastic laminate with contact cement.
- 224 Galaxy should be drilled about 2” off the panel corners to firmly hold the panels. Drill the holes with a 911 Carbide Tipped Drill 1-1/4”, Forstner Drill, 3/8” deep (in the field) or with a CNC (in the plant).
- Install the 224 Galaxy using a Dead-Blow Hammer. The 224 Galaxy is flush with the panel surface.
- Insert the 229 Galaxy Alignment Pins into the 224 Galaxy.
- Set the panels on top of the reveal strips and push them firmly into the drywall to mark the locations for the Mounting Bolt.
- Drill a 1/2 hole in the positions indicated by the 211 Alignment Pins and press in the 349 Upholstery Mounts.
- To install the panels they must be carefully realigned with the mounting screws. Then push them straight into place firmly, you should hear them lock in position. (TIP: Use the reveal spacers to quickly locate the position of the panel. Panels remain permanently removable.)
