Formula & assumptionsceiling(wall_width_inches / panel_coverage_width_inches)

Assumes one horizontal run of equal-width panels using effective coverage width. It does not account for openings, panel height, pattern matching, or extra waste.

Guide

Decorative wall panels add depth to a flat wall using applied molding or flat MDF boards. Instead of full sheets of paneling, our kits build the panel look from trim, which is lighter, cheaper to ship and easier to install on existing drywall. This page shows our wall panel kits in frame, shaker, arched and grid designs, with real photos, prices, material specs and a calculator.

Molding panels versus panel sheets

Sheet paneling covers the whole wall and hides the drywall. Applied molding panels sit on top of the painted wall and create the outline of each panel, so the result looks like traditional paneling at a fraction of the weight. Our molding panels use a 2.5 cm polystyrene profile; shaker and arched panels use primed MDF.

Choosing a panel style

Frame panels suit classic and transitional rooms, shaker grids suit modern and farmhouse interiors, and arched panels work well behind beds and in reading nooks. All kits arrive cut to length and ready to paint.

Is paneling outdated?

Dark wood sheet paneling from past decades is dated, but painted molding panels are a current look in bedrooms, dining rooms and hallways. Painted in the same color as the wall, they add texture without overpowering the room.

Questions people ask

Is paneling outdated?

Dark wood sheet paneling is dated, but painted molding panels and shaker panels are a current look. The difference is the finish: painted, tone-on-tone panels read as architecture rather than as a retro material.

What is MDF paneling?

MDF paneling is made from medium density fiberboard, a smooth engineered board that paints cleanly. It is used for shaker and board and batten panels. Keep MDF away from wet areas unless sealed.
