The edges of our wet wall panels are square and these can be finished in a choice of satin anodised aluminium (SAA), chrome, white, black, brushed black or brushed brass to complement the panel and its surroundings.

Perform Panel typically deliver within 3 - 7 working days.
We recommend that all panels are stored horizontally for a minimum of 48 hours in the room they are being installed in. this allows them to acclimatise to the conditions. Please dry fit the panels together to ensure they lock together without issue.
Nu-Lock panels can be face fixed to a wall or bonded to the wall. If bonding, a high-quality adhesive must be used, we recommend using our Perform Panel adhesive.
Whether face fixed or glued, the grooved edge of the panel must be screwed to the wall to keep this flush and rigid, to allow the next panel to interlock. If face fixing and not using adhesive, then these should be placed at 400mm centres.
Nu-lock panels are supplied with one tongued edge and one grooved edge as standard.
When fitting extrusions, the tongue or grooved edge must be removed to allow the extrusion to fit correctly onto the panel. The first panel is bonded to the wall or frame using the Perform Panel adhesive, with the grooved edge visible. Non-corrosive No 6 screws are used to fix through the bottom flat part of the groove at 600mm centres, ensuring care is taken when drilling to avoid splitting the panel.
Care must be taken not to bend the panel by overtightening the screw in any void on the framing. Screws are fitted flush to avoid any obstruction to the next panel to be located.
A fine bead of silicone sealant should be applied along the top (front edge) of the tongue of the next panel being fitted which is then fitted into the groove at 45 degrees, and once inserted fully it should “pop” into place when pushed back against the wall.
Our recommended sealant is our Perform Panel silicone which is available in white, clear or colour matched.
Continue with the same process as above, until the fitting of the last panel, finishing off with an end cap (removing the groove first to ensure extrusion is fitted neatly).
For a shower or “over a bath” application the panel should sit some approx. 4mm above the tray with the gap filled with silicone ensuring there is no risk of movement. Alternatively, a panseal bottom trim may also be used. A separate installation guide is available for the Panseal bottom trim.
In a wetroom situation we recommend the use of an end cap to seal the base of the board ensuring that a silicone bead is applied before the extrusion is fitted and, in all situations, any exposed timber must be sealed.
Perform Panel has a warranty of 35 years provided the installer follows recommended guidelines.
