Panel Battens

What is the Panel Battens system?

Panel Battens combine cladding coverage with batten detail in one system. The interlocking panel design creates an effective rainscreen while delivering durability and visual appeal. The system allows you to mix and match colors for the battens and panels to create a unique, layered look.

What installation method does the Panel Battens system use?

Panel Battens use a 3-step quick install method. Panels overlap and screw together, then battens press into integrated brackets until you hear a click. A rubber mallet may assist with batten installation. The system features adjustable spacing between battens.

What substructure is required for Panel Battens installation?

Panel Battens require a support surface with substructure to ensure appropriate support and attachment. This may include top hat section, metal hollow sections, or timber sections. The system is designed for easy installation, retrofitting, and weatherproofing over existing materials when the underlying structure is sound and properly prepared.

What batten profiles are compatible with the Panel Battens system?

Panel Battens are compatible with multiple batten profiles including 25mm, 50mm, 75mm, and 100mm widths across various bracket configurations. Available panel options include 25x9mm, 25x25mm, and 50x50mm bracket sizes, allowing flexibility in design and spacing.

What fasteners should be used for Panel Battens installation?

Use 304 or 316 grade stainless steel fasteners for Panel Battens. In non-marine zones, hot-dip galvanised fasteners may be used. Panel overlaps are secured by screwing through both profiles.
