How can we help?

Yes, so long as it’s within the zone created by the hangers.  The installation guides give precise information on permitted loadings, although if your proposed fitting is heavier than the allowed amount shown, it must either be independently suspended, or it may be possible to support the fitting from grid fixed to the back of the Solo. Contact our Technical department for advice in this case.  The other point to consider is the thickness of the Solo. Several spotlight manufacturers list the ceiling thickness that their fittings will work in. Ensure that you choose one suitable for a 40mm thick ceiling. 

These vary according to size and shape of the Solo and are clearly shown in the installation guides.  Each Solo box comes with a template to enable you to mark the positions accurately without having to use a tape measure

Using standard fixings, Solo panels can be installed at up to a 45 degree angle. 

Solo panels can be supplied in special colours (minimum order quantities and set up costs will apply) or printed upon by specialist printers, and this has been done successfully. However, we would not recommend painting the original panel as this may affect the product’s acoustic qualities. 

No! Our Solo and Akusto One solutions are quick and easy to install by any competent DIY’er, as they need minimal fixings. We provide installation guides with all purchased products or visit our YouTube channel for our installation videos. 

The Hook trim is our standard fixing, and the simplest to install. With this fixing, the panel fits almost flush with the wall. If you require precise alignment of the panels, the Connect One Trim is a better option, as the positioning of the fixing within the panel can be controlled more exactly. There will be an air gap behind the panel if using the Connect One Trim. Both options are safe and will hold the panels. 

Our Akusto One comes with fixings provided; however, these fixings are designed to hold the panel on a vertical wall. If you want to hang your Akusto One on an angled surface, please contact us to discuss your installation, and we can advise on if best way to fix the panels. 

No, our panels are designed to absorb the noise/echo within the room you hang them in. Insulation of sound from outside requires different solutions, usually within the wall construction. 

If you have ordered Akusto’s for several walls, it is best to hang them on two adjacent (non-opposing) walls in order for the most sound to be absorbed into the Akusto. 

No! Our solutions are quick and easy to install and can be installed by anyone competent with a drill and screwdriver! We provide installation guides with all purchased products or visit our YouTube channel for our installation videos. 

The glass wool core of the tiles have been tested and classified as non-combustible according to EN ISO 1182

No, we do not currently have any fixing method that allows you to fit the panels to glass.

Yes, although we suggest Akusto One’s are fitted to the wall, they are as effective if you wish to fit them to the ceiling. However you will need to buy alternative fixings in order to do this. 

We do not provide screws as part of the fixings,  as this depends on the material you are fitting your panels to, we advise that you speak to your local hardware store about this, they will be able to advise correctly.
