Installing Stone Exterior Cladding Faster, Safer, and More Securely: A Case Study






 User Had to Say About The Installation Process






How do RG STONE VENEER Panels Compare to Similar Products?


Taylor definitely preferred RG china STONE VENEER Panels over a similar product he had used before. Here is what he had to say:


“We used a different stone panel product before with a honeycomb and fiberglass back on it, but you couldn’t just attach a screw to it. You had to order it with the T nuts already installed. That’s a big problem when field modifications are needed. With the other product, if you wanted to install the anchors in the field, you had to lay everything out, mark the backs of the panels exactly where you wanted your anchors, drill your holes, clean the holes, make sure they were dry, mix the epoxy, set these little T nuts, and then wait for everything to dry overnight. And then if they were even a tiny bit off, the epoxy didn’t set, or it rained, you had to do it all again. It was messy and slow. With RG STONE VENEER Panels I can just screw a Z clip or tab anywhere on the back of the panel. I get a positive, secure connection in seconds. It’s so much faster and easier to adjust to any variations in the field or in the plans”.
