Fixing Through The Wall Panels

Once the panels are installed there might be many items that you need to fix to the walls, such as soap dishes, shower curtain rails, etc.

For very lightweight items you can fix directly through the panel into the wall behind as in figure 1.If you use this method for larger or heavier items you can crush the honeycomb structure of the wall panel, as shown in figure 2.

To avoid this happening you should use spacers fitted between the wall and the surface of the fixed panels. This will stop any item fixed to the surface from deforming the wall panel.

The easiest way to aceive this is to use wall plugs that are cut to length (as shown below) flush with the surface of the panel (figure 3.). This method is suitable for medium duty fixings, but for a very heavy duty fixing use wood or metal spacers - see figure  4 and also see the following page if you are thinking of fitting a wall hung toilet pan
