The four things to check

01

Pre-assembled

Panels of several slats: installation goes four times faster than with individual battens.

02

10 mm relief

Deep enough to cast a clean shadow, thin enough not to encroach on the room.

03

Acoustics

The irregular surface breaks up reverberation in a bare room — a real but moderate effect.

04

Lighting

Plan a grazing LED strip: without light from the side, the relief does not read.

It is probably the most requested wall covering of the last five years, for one simple reason: a slatted wall transforms a room without furnishing it. Behind a sofa, as a headboard, in an entrance hall or behind a reception desk, it brings a verticality and a texture that paint will never produce.

The format

Our Slat Board panels measure 2900 × 159 × 10 mm. Each panel carries several slats already joined with their grooves: you do not fit slats one by one, you fit pre-assembled panels that interlock. A 3 m wide wall goes up in under two hours, against a full day with individual battens.

Nine finishes

On the wood side: natural blond oak (KM-9), light oak (KX-158-03), sandy pink-beige oak (KM-148-02), limed linen oak (KM-148-03), golden-brown smoked oak (KM-11) and warm walnut (KM-41). On the plain side: textured white (KC-148-10), off-white (KX-27) and anthracite (KC-6), which works remarkably well behind a bookcase or a TV unit.

Lighting, the condition for the effect

A slatted wall lit head-on is flat and disappointing. Lit from the side — an LED strip in the ceiling tight to the wall, or a lit skirting at the base — each slat casts its shadow and the relief appears. That is the detail separating a correct wall from a remarkable one, and it has to be planned before installation.

Vertical, horizontal, or as a headboard

Fitted vertically, it makes the ceiling look higher: that is the default orientation. Fitted horizontally, it stretches a wall and suits corridors well. As a headboard, limit it to the bed width plus 40 cm each side, over roughly 1.20 m in height.

Frequently asked questions

What we get asked most often

Do slats really improve acoustics?
They reduce reverberation by breaking up reflections off a flat surface, which noticeably softens an empty tiled room. It is not professional acoustic treatment: for a home cinema, add absorbent felt behind the panels.
Can slats be fitted onto plasterboard?
Yes. Bonded directly if the board is flat, or screwed into the frame studs if you later want to hang something on it. Locate the studs before starting on a wall that will take a TV.
How do you clean a slatted wall?
A vacuum with a soft brush along the grooves, once a month, is enough to stop dust building up in the channels. For a local mark, a barely damp microfibre cloth.
How many panels for a 4 m wide wall?
With a 159 mm effective width, allow 26 panels for 4 m of width at 2.90 m high, plus one spare for edge adjustments. We calculate the exact quantity from your dimensions.
