Bathroom Wall Panel Size Guide

Bathroom Wall Panel Size Guide

Bathroom wall panels come in various sizes, shapes, and thicknesses. This blog explores some of the options available to you and the best ones for your bathroom renovation.

Do Wall Panels Need to be Cut to Size?

They do, but due to their unique structure and lightness they are extremely easy to cut. The crucial part of the installation is the stage before the cutting – the measuring! Ensuring you measure your wall and panels correctly before making any cuts is key to a professional finish – and making sure you have enough panels to finish the project.

It may appear confusing, but our step-by-step video guide takes you through the entire installation process, with clear, concise advice.

What Standard Sizes are Available?

There is not really a ‘standard’ size of bathroom wall panel, with different manufacturers and brands creating their own ranges. Here at National Plastics our bathroom wall panels come in four sizes - 375mm x 2,600mm, 350mm x 2,600mm, 250mm x 2,600mm and 200mm x 2,600mm – each with varying thicknesses.

As mentioned above, wall panels are extremely easy to cut to size and with such a wide range of sizes to start with, you are sure to find a bathroom panel that fits your bathroom and your needs.

Wider Panels

Our range of wall panels come in a variety of different widths with the widest being 375mm. This wider width enables you to cover more space with one panel and is perfect for those larger spaces – reducing the time and money you need to spend on your bathroom transformation!

Wall Panel Length

All our wall panels are 2,600mm long, which enables you to cover a lot of wall space with one panel. Obviously, the design of the panel may incorporate a number of individual ‘tiles’ but rather than having to fit each individual tile and grout it into place, our wall panels help you achieve the look you desire quicker and far easier.

Wall Panel Thickness

Our bathroom wall panels come in three thicknesses – 5mm, 8mm and 10mm – depending on which design you choose.

All our wall panels are extremely lightweight, but obviously the thicker the panel the slightly heavier it will be. A thicker panel will also take up more room – even though just millimetres!

So if your room is slightly smaller it may be worth choosing a thinner wall tile. The condition of your walls may also have an impact on the thickness of panel you choose, with the 8mm and 10mm wall panels having the ability to cover flaws more effectively than their thinner 5mm counterpart.

Wall Panel Height

Our wall panels come in a variety of panel heights (or widths) including 375mm, 350mm, 250mm, and 200mm, enabling you to find the perfect panel height for your project. Usually the style of wall panel you choose will dictate the height of your panel, but you may be working with a space that demands a particular wall panel height – in that case the choice is yours!
