Installing Living Walls
What you'll need:
- Living wall panels
- Drill
- Screws and plugs
- Black Membrane Or Black Paint
Step 1
The first step to installing your wall is getting the membrane in place. Measure the size you need and drill it into the wall/area where you are installing the living wall. Alternatively, you can paint the wall black, which will look best.
Step 2
Next you want to measure out where the walls are going to go and mark the wall. For the best results, you can use a spirit level and a string line to ensure it's straight the first time.
Step 3
Step 3 is where you'll want some to help hold up the living walls. Get your helper to hold the living walls ups with the drill holes over where you’ve marked and install the first wall. To install every subsequent wall, you'll want to do the same. Each wall has a best orientation that will clip into the previous wall to help eliminate gaps. Repeat this step till the entire area is completed.
We told you installing living walls was simple. There isn't too much that goes into the installation of living walls. However, you want to ensure you follow this guide and install it straight with the backing first time. Install it right first time, and you'll never need to take it down.
