FAQs

What is the warranty period for these panels?

The Knotwood Aluminium Cladding Panels are backed by a 15-year warranty.

Can I cut these panels with a standard wood saw?

It is recommended to use a saw blade specifically designed for cutting aluminium to ensure a clean, burr-free edge.

Are these panels fire resistant?

Aluminium is non-combustible, making these panels a safer choice compared to traditional timber cladding.

Do I need to paint or seal the panels?

No, the panels come pre-finished with a durable, weather-resistant coating and do not require further painting or sealing.

How many panels do I need for my wall?

Divide your total surface area by 0.848m2 per panel, then add approximately 10-15% extra to account for wastage and trimming.

Troubleshooting

Visible expansion or buckling of panels

Ensure that the recommended expansion gaps were left at the ends of the boards during installation.

Surface debris or dirt accumulation

Use a soft cloth or sponge with a mild detergent and water solution to wipe down the surface; rinse thoroughly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to rot, termites, and common wood pests
  • Color-stable finish prevents fading over time
  • Lightweight aluminium construction simplifies handling
  • Environmentally conscious design and manufacturing
  • Backed by a comprehensive 15-year warranty

Cons

  • Requires professional installation tools for cutting and fastening
  • Higher initial material investment than traditional timber
  • May require specific framing systems for proper ventilation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Knotwood installation, follow these guidelines:

  1. Substructure: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and flat before installing the framing system.
  2. Thermal Expansion: Always leave the recommended expansion gaps at board ends to account for thermal movement, as aluminium expands and contracts with temperature shifts.
  3. Fastening: Use compatible, non-corrosive fasteners as recommended by the manufacturer to prevent galvanic corrosion.
  4. Cleaning: Periodically wash the panels with mild soap and water to remove salt or dust buildup; avoid harsh abrasive cleaners or steel wool.
