Full Height Shaker Wall Panel Kit
Shaker panelling is a decorative wall treatment created using evenly spaced vertical and horizontal strips. It can be installed as full-height feature walls, half-height wainscoting or framed panel designs. MDF is the most commonly used material for painted interiors due to its smooth finish and stability, while timber is chosen for natural wood finishes. Proper measuring, symmetry and surface preparation are key to achieving a professional result. Our MDF Shaker Wall Panelling Kits include all the strips you need to create this affect. We also can provide single MDF wall panelling strips.
Take a look at our guides for Shaker Panelling Kits, a step-by-step guide to both kinds and how to achieve the best results in your home.

What Is Shaker Panelling?
Shaker panelling originates from traditional shaker-style joinery, characterised by clean lines and simple geometry. Modern shaker wall panels are typically made using MDF strips fixed directly to plastered walls, then filled, primed and painted for a seamless built-in appearance.
Types Of Shaker Panel Layouts
- Full-Height Grid – Covers the entire wall from skirting to ceiling for a bold statement.
- Half-Height (Wainscoting) – Extends to approximately one-third or half the wall height, often finished with a top rail.
- Feature Frame – One or two large rectangular frames used behind beds or sofas.
- Modern Narrow Panels – Smaller, closely spaced rectangles for contemporary interiors.
Why Use MDF for Shaker Panels?
Advantages of MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard):
- Smooth paint-ready surface.
- Cost-effective.
- Easy to cut and install.
- Moisture-resistant grades available.
Please Note:
A back board is not included in this kit, you will only receive MDF strips to create the panel effect. If your wall has imperfections and you need a back board to cover them purchase MDF sheets cut to size separately.
