Where can I use my slat panels?

What size slat panel will I need, and how many?

An easy way to work out how many panels you will need to fill a wall is to divide the width of your chosen space by the width of our panels. By default, our slat wall panels are 600 millimetres wide, so if the wall you are intending to cover is 3 metres, you would need 5 panels.
