Step-by-Step Installation

Please review all the steps before starting the installation.

Installation Tip:

If your wall or ceiling size cannot be divided evenly by 30cm, begin tiling from the centre. This ensures that the tiles finish evenly on both sides, giving a professional look.

1. Frame the Area

Measure and cut the edge beads to create the frame for the section to be tiled. Depending on your preferred look, cut the ends either straight or at a 45° angle.

2. Prepare Railings for the Frame

Cut the railings to fit inside the frame.

Snap both ends of the drywall brackets and attach them to the railings. Place brackets 150mm from each end and then every 400–500mm (depending on stud locations).

4. Fix the Frame

Fix the frame to the wall or ceiling. Secure through the bracket holes.

Important: all corners must be exactly 90°. A laser level is highly recommended.

5. Cut and Prepare Remaining Railings

Measure and cut the rest of the railings for the longest runs (vertical or horizontal). Attach brackets as before in step 2 — 150mm from each end and then every 400–500mm.

6. Fix the Internal Railings

Snap one tile next to the end bead, then add the railing prepared in step 5.

Snap in a few tiles before fixing the railing with screws — this ensures the rail stays perfectly straight.
