Open Square Wall Panelling - half-height 800mm x 600mm (readymade wall panels)

Open backed square readymade wall panels. Perfect for traditional interiors. Moisture resistant and ideal for bathrooms, halls and reception rooms.

These premade Shaker style panels are designed to be "stacked" one above the other to allow it to be taken to any height. The large open squares can be further enhanced by simply inserting softwood beading pre cut to suit - ideal for dining and other reception rooms.

​A useful shortcut to create period style panelling in your reception rooms that would otherwise be much more time consuming to create. ​They are made from moisture resistant MDF.

The panels with a perforated design (we call this Open Backed) require a reasonably good condition surface as this will still be seen where there square/rectangular cut outs. However this allows the panels to be “handed” so that installation is much easier (and cheaper!) than using a solid backed system. It also means that the panelling encroaches less into your room space. If the wall surface is not ideal it can always be lined first with a 6mm sheet of MDF glued to the wall and then our panels can be applied to this, but often a bit of surface filler and, of course, the eggshell paint finish will normally suffice. 

Half-height is wall panelling which usually rises to around waist height – the same height as a dado rail in period buildings (sometimes refered to as chair-rail). Oringinally panelling was sometimes used to hide damp which occured on ground floor of old buildings.

NB: Dado, skirting and edging sold separately.
