Regency faux panels will bring a beautiful touch to any exterior or interior wall. Here are user-friendly instructions to make sure you can install your Regency panels without a hitch. These instructions apply for installing ANY flat surface, even concrete or a steel building.
The Regency panels install the same way as our Oxford panels. They are both applied with glue and screws. Please follow these directions below.
1. Apply glue to the back of the panel in a zigzag pattern.
2. Make sure the panel is level and fasten the panel to the wall with screws in each corner.
3. For the next panel, repeat steps 1 and 2. Then slide the panel in place.
4. Tap in for a snug fit. Make sure you install the panels tightly, as they may expand and contract with temperature changes. Repeat these steps until the first row is complete.
5. Now you can start the next row. The panels were designed to lock into each other top and bottom.
6. Tap panel in for a snug fit.
7. For a seamless look, offset each row by one half sheet. This will make it impossible to notice any seams.
8. Make sure to keep the panels level. You can use a chalk line (or pencil lines) on your wall to make sure the panels are staying straight.
9. Remember to fasten all corners with screws.
10. Continue to glue, fit and fasten.
11. Caulk all the seams. The color matched caulking we provide looks like real grout. It will seal out the moisture, hide any gaps, plus it expands and contracts with the weather.
12. Now you can enjoy your maintenance free panels for a lifetime.
Tip...
The screws you use can be for interior or exterior (depending on your application). Be sure that the tongue portion of the panel is on top of the panel, groove portion on the bottom. All joints should be butt joints on straight runs, and mitered joints in corners. All joints will need to be glued. The panels may require additional shimming and trimming for alignment.
MAKE SURE to observe and obey all safety rules and recommendations set forth by tool manufacturers
and local,
state, and federal authorities for any building project including all applicable building codes.
