What do I need to assemble my kit?
For assembly, you'll need a drill to attach the accordion door frame to the panels. No other tools required!
Can I hang art from the panels?
Yes, the panels are strong enough to hang standard pictures and paintings and are perfect for creating gallery walls and displaying your favourite pieces. You can either drill into the panel to place a mounting screw, or you can use wire to hang art using loops placed around lugs/finishing caps inserted in the top of your wall. We do not recommend hanging art that projects far off the wall (such as animal busts) and anything that could create a weight imbalance.
Can I paint or apply wallpaper to the panels?
It is not recommended to paint the panels as the surface is not conducive to painting and is difficult to adhere to. However, it is possible to use standard peel & stick wallpaper to create endless customizations of your wall divider. To avoid seeing seams between panels when applying wallpaper, we recommend applying standard seaming tape between panels before wallpaper is applied.
How is this kit shipped?
To keep shipping costs as affordable as possible, the kits are shipped on 48"x40" pallets. When your order is on the way, the courier will call you before your delivery and schedule a 2-4 hour window where you'll be home and able to receive the order. When they arrive, they'll lower the kit to the ground in front of your driveway, (curbside) where you can begin bringing the panels inside your home.
I'm renting. Am I allowed to install a Partition Wall in my home?
Because it's freestanding, this partition may be allowed by your landlord. However, every landlord is different and it all depends on your agreement with them.
We wrote a blog post on the topic to make things as clear as possible! If you're unsure, we recommend contacting your local bylaw office and/or landlord association.
How are your products priced?
All of our products are proudly designed and manufactured in the USA, which ensures top quality but does result in higher costs. However, they are still comparable to or even less than the cost to hire a contractor to build a new wall or room in your home.
Unlike traditional walls, our modular system can be moved, reused, and reconfigured endlessly, providing a lifetime of value no matter where life takes you.
Why not just build a regular frame wall?
For those who have tools, carpentry expertise, permits, and are ready to make permanent alterations to their home, this may be a better option.
However, if you don't have carpentry experience, having a wall built professionally can cost anywhere between $2500-$10,000, depending on location and size of your project.
In addition, there are often required building plans, permits, cleanup costs and demolition costs if you ever change your mind.
If you prefer a solution that can be disassembled, moved and taken with you when you move or repurposed when your needs change, our temporary modular wall kits are perfect for you!
