What Should You Know Before Installing Veatro?

Installation begins with the wall, clearances and room conditions before the frame reaches its final position. A collector-led guide grounded in material, evidence and lived experience.

Check the wall, not only the measurement

Concrete, masonry, timber framing and hollow partitions need different fixings. Confirm hidden services and wall condition before drilling. Record the selected hardware.

Plan how the silk will leave

The work needs enough clear space for safe release and return. Furniture, switches, corners and circulation can make a centered wall position impractical.

Observe light and airflow

Direct sun and a forceful vent can make an otherwise attractive wall unsuitable. Check the location at different hours and under normal room operation.

Install the system before the textile

Veatro should be secure, level and inspected before ArtSoie approaches it. This keeps wall work and loose tools away from the silk.

Complete the handover

Photograph the installation, demonstrate release and provide care, component and installer records. The owner should know who to contact if alignment or wall conditions change.
