Using Wall Panels On A Shed

Using Wall Panels On A Shed

Can You Use Wall Panels on a Shed?

Yes, wall panels can be used on a shed, but only on the inside, not the outside. So what is the best way to use them? And how can they be used to enhance your shed? This blog aims to answer these questions.

What are the Best Wall Panels to Use in a Shed?

Most wall panels can be used inside a shed, but it’s advisable to use the lightest panels available. Wall panels come in a variety of thicknesses – here at National Plastics we offer wall panels in 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, and 10mm thicknesses – so choosing a 5 or 6mm thick panel will ensure your shed walls can safely support your new wall panels.

What Can You Use Your Shed For?

Whilst many of us may still use our sheds for storage, there are now so many other ways to use this ‘outside room’. They can be transformed into offices, outdoor bars, entertainment areas, and even a ‘posh’ storage space for prized possessions, such as bikes.

Wall panels on the inside of your shed will help to keep it clean, protecting your possessions from dirt and damp. They can also create a stylish, inspirational interior which is easy to look after.

Why Can’t You Use Wall Panels for the Outside of Your Shed?

Whilst wall panels are 100% waterproof and are ideal for rooms with high levels of moisture, they are not resistant to the elements. Wind, consistent rain, ice, and heat will all cause irreversible damage, which in turn will harm your shed. Most sheds, whether timber, composite, or PVC, will be specifically designed to weather the elements in their own way, so adding panels on to the surface will not add any benefit.

How Do You Install Wall Panels in a Shed?

Wall panels are extremely easy to install. They are very forgiving, which means they can be used to cover rough or uneven surfaces, and lightweight, so are easy to handle. Using our simple to follow video guide you should be able to install wall panels in your shed yourself. However, if you have any queries or require help, our team is always on hand to help.
