DIY Installation Guides
Akupanels are designed for DIY installation. Most walls take an afternoon with a saw, a screwdriver and a tape measure. Pick the guide that matches your project. Each one lists the tools you need and walks through every step with a video.
Choose your guide
- Standard wall installation: fix Akupanels straight onto a flat wall with screws or mounting glue. Start here for feature walls, TV walls and headboards.
- Ceiling installation: mount panels overhead on battens, spaced about 40cm apart.
- Installation with mineral wool: add mineral wool behind the panels on studs for extra sound absorption in home cinemas, offices and music rooms.
- Garage door installation: clad a garage door for a flush, seamless facade.
