How to install your Max Media Wall — free DIY guide

Install your Max Media Wall in a day.

Free DIY guide. Basic tools. One panel takes ~30 min. A full wall takes a day.

What you’ll need
  • · Cordless drill
  • · Level (24″ or longer)
  • · Stud finder (we include one with every order)
  • · Pencil
  • · Tape measure
  • · A friend (helpful but not required)

Step 1 · Find your studs

Use the stud finder along the wall where the panel will sit. Mark each stud with a pencil, top and bottom. Panels mount into studs for solid hold — no drywall anchors needed.

Step 2 · Mark mounting holes

Each 24″×118″ panel mounts with 4 screws — 2 at top, 2 at bottom, into the closest studs. Hold the panel against the wall (or use a friend to hold it), level it, then mark 4 hole positions through the pre-drilled mounting points.

Step 3 · Pre-drill the wall

Use a 1/8″ drill bit. Pre-drill all 4 marks. Cleaner final screw-in. Prevents splitting if you ever move the panel later.

Step 4 · Mount the panel

Hold the panel up to the wall (friend helps). Drive the 4 included mounting screws through the pre-drilled panel holes into the studs. Tighten until snug — do not over-tighten or you’ll compress the felt backing.

Step 5 · Add the foam top-cap

Each panel ships with a matching acoustic-foam top-cap. Slide it onto the top edge of the panel — hides the top mounting screws and softens the ceiling transition.

Step 6 · Multiple panels side-by-side

For a wider wall, panels butt directly against each other — the slat spacing matches across panels so the look is continuous. Level each one against the previous before drilling.
