On a whim whilst decorating a small dining room, I decided to put shaker panelling beneath an existing dado rail. I was slightly anxious however I’d used CutMy for similar panelling for the ends of our kitchen island and it had worked out wonderfully.
I measured the three walls, the fourth wall was glass doors leading into the conservatory, and chose the primed MDF, 80mm wide. They arrived in one complete package, with the MDF for the three different sized walls all mixed together. I do think that a copy of the measured view, with the chosen dimensions included in the delivery would have helped considerably.
However I did manage to sort the boards out, and they fit amazingly well. Getting the boards to meet seamlessly wasn’t as easy as I thought, but some judicious sanding after fitting made the joins almost invisible. I thought I would have needed panel pins or a nail gun to secure them in addition to the glue however a proprietary glue that did away with any more nails worked brilliantly. I did use a lot more glue than I’d imagined so factor that into your budget.
The boards were delivered punctually, they were of great quality, the primer assisted greatly, and it saved hours of measuring and cutting, with no need for the injurious MDF dust inside the house. I am delighted with the service and I’m looking where I can use CutMy products elsewhere.

Excellent and promt service
I ordered a self-measured kit of mdf wall panel parts, which had to fit exactly in a bedroom alcove of 2.585 metres. The measurements were made to half a millimeter to ensure the project fitted. The parts arrived quickly, and very well packed and protected against transit damage. Measurement of the individual parts showed them all to be exact! The quality of the mdf material is first class. The project is now fitted in place and primed, waiting for the choice of top coat. We are very happy with the service 😀

Great service when our strips arrived…
Great service when our strips arrived slightly damaged (not their fault, probably the courier), but they offered a more than reasonable offer of a compensation discount, with no hassle at all. Very pleased with the service, and the panelling in our bedroom now.

5mm Mild Steel Sheet Applications
Vehicle/Trailer Flooring: A 5mm sheet is thick enough for flooring in utility trailers, flatbeds, van conversions, or DIY campers. The smooth mild steel takes spray liners well.
Metal Ducting: HVAC ducting, dust collection hoods, and fume exhaust pipes can be fabricated from 5mm sheet steel and welded or riveted.
Boxing In: For capping off exposed pipes, beams, or utilities, a 5mm sheet provides clean rectangular covers to "box in" unsightly elements.
Kick Plates - 5mm works for kick plates on the bottom of doors to prevent scuffing and damage. The sheet can be cut to size and screwed on.
Base and reinforcement plates.
Garden Screens: Custom-cut mild steel panels can be used to create decorative screens or partitions in gardens or outdoor spaces, adding privacy and aesthetic appeal.
Replacement panels.
Furniture Parts - For legs, braces, shelving, and other furniture parts, 5mm has enough strength without excessive weight. The edges take nicely to grinding/finishing.

Cannot fault the product itself, the cut corners option is very cool. Am uncertain if I ordered out of stock as the two week wait time for a UK delivered product was bad. Tried to purchase another plate and every single piece no mater what grade or thickness was out of stock. Went elsewhere!
