Acoustic Panel Installations
Acoustic panels are increasingly popular in residential and commercial interiors. Their slatted, grooved, or perforated surfaces create unique challenges for mounting electrical hardware flush.
The Challenge
Slatted Acoustic Panels
Vertical or horizontal slats with felt backing create deep relief patterns. Power points mounted directly will rock between slats, creating an unstable and visually poor finish.
Grooved Acoustic Panels
V-groove and channel profiles in MDF or timber acoustic panels present similar issues to architectural cladding - gaps, rocking, and unsightly installations.
Common Applications
- Home theatre and media rooms with acoustic treatment
- Office fit-outs with acoustic wall panelling
- Restaurant and hospitality acoustic feature walls
- Recording studios and podcast rooms
- Residential living areas with decorative acoustic panels
