Description

White River Hardwoods · Tambour Collection

1/2″ Double Bead Tambour

Solid Wood · Flexible & Solid Backing · Made in the USA

Twin beads on a 1/2″ slat — the double bead profile at a scale that balances detail and presence. A versatile choice for accent walls, cabinetry cladding, and any application where refined texture is the goal.

Two beads at half an inch — enough scale to be felt across a room, enough detail to reward a closer look.

Why This Profile

The Profile in Detail

●●

Double Bead at 1/2″

The 1/2″ slat width gives the double bead profile a comfortable mid-scale presence — more visible than the fine 1/4″ version, more refined than wider profiles.

↩

Flexible Backing

Available for curved installations as well as flat walls — this is one of the most versatile double bead options in the tambour range.

🌲

7 Species Available

Red Oak, Paint Grade, Hard Maple, Walnut, White Oak, Cherry, and Alder — sanded and ready for your finish.

🏠

Residential & Trade Favorite

A consistently popular choice among interior designers for its balance of detail and scale — works in both contemporary and transitional interiors.

Before You Install

Storage, Handling & Acclimation

Acclimate First — Always

On receipt, store flat in a controlled interior environment. Allow 24–48 hours to acclimate before finishing or installing. This stabilizes moisture content and reduces post-install movement. Before you begin, lightly roll and unroll each panel to flex the backing — hold the rolled position for 5+ seconds, then return flat.

Interior Use Only

Tambour panels are not suitable for wet or high-humidity environments including showers, bathrooms, or pools. Always install in a space with standard room temperature and humidity.

Installation

Step by Step

Prep the Surface

Wall must be clean, sound, and free of dust, grease, or debris. Apply primer to porous substrates for better adhesion.

Dry-Fit First

Always dry-fit before committing adhesive. Install vertically or horizontally — confirm your layout before you spread anything.

Apply Adhesive

Use PVA, contact, epoxy, or a quality panel adhesive (e.g., Titebond Fast Grab FRP). Trowel for 80–100% coverage to within ¼″ of edges. With a gun, run beads around the perimeter and horizontal beads every 4–6″.

Press & Secure

Apply firm, uniform pressure across the full panel. Use a ¾″ sacrificial board when tapping or hammering. For curved applications, temporary bracing until the glue sets ensures clean contact.

Leave Micro-Gaps

Leave a hairline gap between adjacent panels — roughly two stacked business cards — to accommodate natural wood movement over time.

Clean Up

Clean any adhesive squeeze-out immediately to avoid residue on slat faces.

Installer Advice

Pro Tips

Pre-Stretch Inward

Before attaching, roll the panel inward to stretch the backing. This makes it more compliant and easier to handle, especially on curved surfaces.

Flex Outward with Intent

Follow up by flexing outward firmly to fully stretch the paper backing. A properly stretched panel lays flatter and adheres more evenly.

No Cabinets Through Tambour

Never mount cabinets or furniture through the panel into the wall. Wood movement can cause buckling and will void the warranty.

Warranty Reminder

Warranty may be voided if panels are installed in high-moisture environments, or if cabinetry or furniture is mounted through the tambour panel into the wall. Always follow adhesive manufacturer's instructions and allow full acclimation prior to installation.
