Here you’ll find everything you need to know about our real wood wall panels — from installation tips to maintenance and product details. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, our team is always ready to help.
Are the wall panels made of real wood or synthetic materials?
Our wall panels are made from 100% authentic, exotic woods sourced from around the globe. The quality of our products is evident in the smell, texture, and color of each panel.
Do the panels have a UV coating for protection?
Yes, our panels have a subtle, almost imperceptible UV coating on both sides to ensure durability and protection against the elements.
What if my wall is in poor condition?
Before installation, clean the wall with a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris. Make sure the surface is completely dry before proceeding. Test adhesion by applying a plank to a small, inconspicuous area and checking for proper adherence after 48 hours.
Is FWW a DIY-friendly product?
Absolutely! Simply follow the installation instructions provided on our website. If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to contact us.
Can I remove the panels if I change my mind?
While it’s hard to imagine growing tired of FWW panels, they can be removed if desired. Removal may require some effort and may necessitate wall repairs and repainting afterward.
How long do the panels last?
The premium adhesive used for our double-sided tape is rated for 10 years, but it may last even longer with proper care.
Are FWW products environmentally friendly?
We are committed to using eco-friendly materials and sustainable practices. Our advanced machinery reduces wood usage by up to 25% compared to competitors and 85% less than traditional wood paneling. We also repurpose 100% of our wood waste by creating biomass briquettes. All of our wood wall paneling is made from responsibly sourced wood, and our packaging is 100% recyclable and made from recycled cardboard.
Can FWW be applied to textured walls?
FWW can adhere to most standard wall textures, provided the surface is painted, dry, and free of dust. For uncommon or excessively textured walls, you may need to sand down the bumps and paint the sanded areas. If you’re unsure about whether your walls require sanding, please contact us for guidance.
Can FWW be installed on ceilings?
Yes, FWW can be used for ceiling installations. If your ceiling has a rough texture, like a popcorn finish, it should be sanded and primed before applying the panels.
Is FWW recyclable?
Yes!
Can I hang items on FWW panels?
Yes, once installed, FWW panels can be treated like a regular wall. Just ensure that your screws or nails are long enough to reach the underlying wall.
Can FWW panels be used outdoors?
We generally do not recommend using FWW panels for outdoor applications.
How do I clean and maintain FWW panels?
To clean FWW panels, simply use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dust or dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive materials, or excessive water, as they may damage the wood’s finish.
Can FWW panels be cut to fit around outlets, switches, or other obstacles?
Yes, Feeling Wood panels can be easily cut to accommodate outlets, switches, or other wall features. Use a utility knife, handsaw, or jigsaw to trim the panels as needed.
Are FWW panels suitable for use in high-moisture areas like bathrooms or kitchens?
FWW panels are designed for use in most interior spaces. However, they are not recommended for areas with high moisture levels or direct water exposure. To protect your panels and ensure their longevity, avoid installing them in areas prone to dampness or humidity.
How can I calculate the amount of material required for my project?
Begin by measuring your wall’s height and width in inches. Multiply the two measurements, then divide the result by 144 to obtain the square footage needed. To account for potential waste, add an extra 5% to the total. Here’s an example of this calculation, or you can consult this guide for more comprehensive, step-by-step instructions:
Example:
Wall Width = 96 inches
Wall Height = 108 inches
96 inches x 108 inches = 10,368 inches
10,368 inches / 144 = 72 square feet
72 square feet + (72 x .05 waste) = 75.6 square feet total
Can I install FWW panels on curved walls or surfaces?
FWW panels are designed for installation on flat surfaces. Installing them on curved walls or surfaces may be challenging and could result in poor adhesion. For best results, we recommend installing the panels on flat, even walls.
Are FWW panels resistant to scratches and dents?
FWW panels are made from high-quality wood and are reasonably resistant to everyday wear and tear. However, they are not immune to scratches and dents, especially if subjected to heavy impacts or sharp objects. To maintain the appearance and longevity of your panels, handle them with care and avoid contact with abrasive materials.
Can I paint or stain FWW panels to match my existing décor?
While FWW panels come with a beautiful natural finish, it is possible to paint or stain them to match your existing décor. However, doing so may alter their appearance and texture. We recommend testing the paint or stain on a small, inconspicuous area or a spare panel before applying it to the entire installation.
