PDQ™ Panel & Frame

Key Features of the PDQ™ Panel & Frame

1. Fast and Simple Installation

Our PDQ™ Panel & Frame system dramatically reduces on-site installation time, making it twice as quick to fit compared to traditional timber-built or IPS panel systems. Pre-fabricated holes and slots are positioned precisely, ensuring all system components are perfectly aligned every time, streamlining the installation process.

2. Perfect Panel Alignment

The Dowel Dock system enables panels to be hung quickly and securely, ensuring flawless alignment.
Cross Brace Brackets provide added stability, maintaining the shape of the entire framed system and ensuring a professional finish for your washroom.

3. Ease of Maintenance

Maintenance is safer and more efficient with our optional top-hinged access panels, which lock at a 90° angle for easy access. For high-security environments, an optional anti-vandal locking system ensures durability and peace of mind.
