Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

The optimum fixing method depends on the wooden slat and the surface. For solid walls, you can plug and screw the strips directly. For invisible fastening, mounting adhesive or nailing with fine pins (if necessary with a pneumatic nailer) are suitable, the small holes of which can then be filled.

We recommend a high-quality mounting adhesive for bonding wooden strips. This compensates for slight unevenness in the substrate and offers high initial adhesion. When selecting the adhesive, make sure that it is suitable for wood and the respective substrate (e.g. plaster, tiles). Read the manufacturer’s instructions on the cartridge.

Yes, this is easily possible with the right adhesive. Use a strong mounting adhesive that is explicitly suitable for smooth, non-absorbent surfaces such as tiles. The tiles must be absolutely clean, dry and free of grease before applying the adhesive to ensure permanent adhesion.

No wood is completely free of movement, but woods with a stable stability are much more dimensionally stable. These include in particular hardwoods such as teak or oak. It is important that the wooden slats are well acclimatized before installation, i.e. they should be allowed to adjust to the room temperature and humidity of the installation site for a few days.

In principle, yes, but the unique grain and natural beauty of precious woods such as teak will be lost. If you still want to paint the slats, you should sand the surface lightly, apply a suitable primer and then use a high-quality wood varnish in the desired color.
