Install Instructions
Install Instructions
- Recommended Installation: Mechanically fasten with screws
- The easiest way to install BlocknZorbe™ sound panels is to screw them into drywall, wood, metal, or concrete. All screws should be at least 3/4" from the edge of the panel.
- Our recommended adhesives can be used as an optional installation method
- If field cuts are needed, use a table saw. Set blade to cut half the thickness of the BlocknZorbe™ acoustic material. (i.e. for a 2" thick panel, cut 1" and then flip the panel over and cut 1" again to complete the cut)
- These steps can be found in the BlocknZorbe™ Install Guides: (Direct Attach).
BlocknZorbe can also be installed with adhesive. We offer the P329 Spray Adhesive (BlocknZorbe™ Install Guide (P329 Spray Adhesive)) or adhesive can be bought locally (BlocknZorbe™ Install Guide (Construction Adhesive)).
