FAQs
Is this panel compatible with all 1600mm baths?
It is designed for standard 1600mm baths, but since installation methods vary by bath model, you may need to adjust the mounting points.
Can I paint this panel?
The panel comes with a finished matt grey coating. While it can technically be painted, doing so may void the warranty and affect the moisture resistance of the surface.
What tools do I need for installation?
You will typically need a tape measure, spirit level, pencil, fine-toothed hand saw or jigsaw, and a screwdriver or drill for the fixings.
How do I clean the matt finish?
Use a damp, soft cloth with mild household soap. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or acidic cleaners which can damage the matt surface.
Is the material waterproof?
Yes, the panel is specifically constructed to be waterproof to prevent warping or discoloration from bathroom moisture.
Troubleshooting
Panel is too tall for the space
Measure the gap carefully and trim the excess material from the bottom edge using a fine-toothed saw.
Panel appears loose or wobbly
Ensure that the fixing clips or screws are properly tightened against the bath frame and that the panel is level.
Water spots visible on the surface
Clean the panel with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, then dry immediately with a microfiber cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Balterley panel is straightforward and designed for standard 1600mm baths. To install, first measure the height of the bath rim from the floor and mark the panel accordingly. If your floor is slightly uneven, use a spirit level to draw a straight cut line across the panel. Trim the excess material using an appropriate saw, ensuring you wear protective gear while cutting. Once trimmed, secure the panel to the bath frame using suitable clips or screws compatible with your specific bath model. For ongoing care, simply wipe the matt grey surface with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals to preserve the finish and prevent micro-scratches.
