INSTALLATION NOTES
Whether Benchmark handles your installation or someone else, here are some things you’ll need to know:
Most commercial grade wallcoverings are quite thick and have a canvas backer for dimensional stability. The reason for the thickness is it helps hide blemishes in the wall surface and also increases durability. Thinner self-pasted or self-adhesive materials, are less forgiving when wall surfaces are below par. There are also new “Green” non-vinyl coverings to help your project stay on track with its LEED targets. Your Benchmark Rep can help you through the jungle.
Wall Prep – Walls need to be clean, smooth, and have surface characteristics that optimize the adherence of the paste used to hang the wall covering. There are some paints used in commercial environments that degrade adherence. The easiest way insure a good install is to prime the wall with Shieldz® Universal Wallcovering Primer. This is a Rustoleum product readily available at retailers. It’s also adds mildew resistance which is important because vinyl coverings actually dry through the wall.
Matched Panels – Installing matched panel graphics isn’t a lot different than working with repeating patterns. If you can do one you can probably master the other. One issue that is a little different is making sure the overall placement on the wall is correct. The first panel up completely dictates the placement of everything to come. Since the image panels aren’t continuous (like a repeating pattern would be), the top and bottom placement is more critical, and checking verticals against a rise or fall of the horizontal (floor or ceiling) is an extra step that needs to be taken to insure proper placement. If you prefer, Benchmark will handle the installation for you. Our installers can get the job done with a minimum of fuss and concerns. Benchmark installers are also expert with standoffs, individually framed graphics, and lettering installs so you can rely on one source to do it all.
