Installation Using Screws

Step 1: Preparation

Prepare the Surface:

Ensure the mounting surface (wall or fence) is clean, smooth, and stable. Clear away any dirt or loose materials and repair damage as needed.
Level the surface if necessary to support panel installation.

Measure and Plan:

Measure the height and width of the installation area.
Plan the layout for even spacing. A quick sketch will help avoid errors and achieve a polished, aesthetically pleasing result.

Step 2: Installing the Outdoor Panels

Installing the First Panel:

Start at the bottom, positioning the first panel flush against the wall or fence. Make sure the grooved side faces inward.
Leave a minimum ⅜-inch gap (10 mm) between the panel and the ground to allow for ventilation and drainage.
Use self-tapping screws to fasten the panel to the wall. Pre-drilling is recommended to prevent potential damage.

Securing Additional Panels:

Horizontal Installation: Place the next panel horizontally beside the first.
Vertical Installation: Place the next panel directly above the previous one.

Continue Installation:

Repeat these steps until the entire wall or fence is covered.
Maintain close panel contact, allowing only for the necessary expansion gaps.

Step 3: Finishing Corners and End Pieces

Securing Corners:

Use L-shaped corner trims to finish outer corners. Position the trim and secure it with self-tapping screws.
Ensure the trim is flush with the panels for a neat, professional look.

Adding End Pieces:

For areas around windows and doors, use fascia boards. Cut boards to size and secure with construction adhesive.
Leave a ⅜-inch gap (8 mm) between the panels and surrounding structures to account for expansion.

Step 4: Inspection and Finishing Touches

Final Check:

Verify that all panels are secure and that ventilation gaps are in place.
Ensure all screws are tightened and panels are aligned.

Cleaning:

Wipe down the panels with a soft brush or cloth to remove any dust or dirt.

Safety and Maintenance

Safety Precautions: Wear protective gear such as gloves and safety goggles while installing panels.

Maintenance: Composite outdoor panels require minimal upkeep. Regularly rinse with water and a soft brush to keep panels looking fresh.
