Large Acoustic Panel by LovelyTeik.jpg 4

Have you ever wanted to do a bigger acoustic panel to upgrade sound quality? Or, you are drafting a design plan that comes with a number of panels in different sizes for your room? If yes, you are at the right place by reading this.

What are Main Materials of Our Large Acoustic Panel?

Before laying out the benefits of our own-brand large acoustic panel, you need to know about the core acoustic materials first. The main acoustic material is acoustic foam and fabric, Rockwool is an alternative choice. There are two types, one is with plastic plywood, one is without plastic plywood at the back of foam material.

Top 5 Benefits by Using Large Acoustic Panel

1. Cheaper, Cost-Effective

The price of panel itself may sound still a bit steep to some people but it is cheaper for the cost per square feet. With exclusively large size, it would help you reduce installation time. This indirectly saves your cost or could stay within budget.

2. Higher Sound Absorption

We have many kinds of acoustic sponges which in different grades, range from grade AA to grade C. But for acoustic wall panel, we only use premium grade as refill material. You would be well-advised to install our panel with premium foam as it has been receiving great feedback from our customers in the past many years. It could break sound waves and absorb more sound effectively. Each panel has excellent sound absorption properties as it has minimum height of 6 feets.

3. Great Acoustic Performance

Basically, refill materials such as Rockwool and acoustic foam are already widely known as acoustic treatments. But in this article, I will only specify one of our bestsellers – egg crate acoustic foam. It offers great acoustic because the pitch of foam can break sound waves easily which was just mentioned. The valley of foam can trap noises, which in turn the foam has a better ability to reduce reflection. This is why we use egg carton acoustic foam as refill acoustic material. Most importantly, the bigger of panel you have, the better acoustic you could enjoy.

4. Choose Your Own Fabric Color

While we are always committed to improving sound quality, we also make sure the choice of fabric is not affecting aesthetic appearance. We have more than 40 color options, you can choose any color that matches your design. Incidentally, our fabric is also good for acoustic.

5. Save Installation Time

Due to our panel is bigger, it could shorten installation time. It means you would not need to install as many panels as supposed to. If you have limited manpower or you are an individual, our large acoustic panel might suit your needs.

Why LovelyTeik The Foam Shop?

We are certainly not the first one to invent acoustic panel but we are proud to say that we are The First Foam Shop in Malaysia that produce these large acoustic panels. We are also the pioneer of acoustic foam panel. Therefore, it is our exclusive product.

Final Say

Before wrapping up, I would like to say that there are no products that will be one-size-fits-all. So, maybe our large acoustic panel is not the best choice for you. Sound quality could be very personal, it is up to what result you expect. Different materials, different expectations and different prices. For an enhanced acoustical experience, there are plenty of choices you can go for. Like, so-called soundproofing door seal to window tape, acoustic curtain to acoustic mat, acoustic carpet to acoustic ceiling, acoustic partition to soundproof blanket, acoustic fluted panel or even decorative acoustic panel which come with whole set.

How to DIY Soundproof Panel That Helps to Block Noises From Window?

Posted on 1 Comment
How to DIY acoustic panel block noises from window

Make a Flexible Soundproof Panel At A Cheap Price Using Rockwool.

One of most inquiries we received from house owners is they facing problems with noises outside of window. Sometimes it can be construction projects nearby, traffic noises or many other sources of noise that are beyond your control. But one thing is for sure, you can control the inside of your home. One of the best ways to deal with outside noises is to soundproof your windows. There are many ways to do it, but today we’ll show you the cheapest DIY way.

Materials and Tools

  • Wood sticks
  • Rockwool stone wool refill materials
  • Waterproof canvas/Fabric
  • L brackets
  • Handle stick
  • Screws
  • Steel band roll
  • Nails
  • Glue/Stapler/Adhesive spray
  • Drill

  1. Prepare Wood Sticks

    Gather 4, 8, or 12 beams. The number will depend on how big you want the panel. Usually, hardware shops and other home improvement shops like WoodMalaysia are selling pc by pc, standard lengths range from 5 feet to 12 feet, in many different sizes. So choose the right size for your panel. But for this DIY flexible panel, we recommend you to use 1×2, 1×3 or 1×4 wood beam.

  2. Putting The Frames Together

    You’ll need a drill and screws to put the frames together using L brackets. The procedure is kind of self-explanatory. Insert a bracket in each corner and screw it to secure the brackets. Then, assemble it into the frame.DIY Flexible Acoustic Panel To Block Noise From Window - Step 2

  3. Adding Steel Band Roll

    Add steel band roll on the back of the frame. You can have plywood to install as 2nd option but steel band roll is good enough to secure the weight if you install 1 layer of acoustic refill material only. Steel band roll is cheaper, easier to cut and bend. You can buy it from any hardware shop or Shopee, super convenient.DIY Flexible Acoustic Panel To Block Noise From Window - Step 3

  4. Install With Flexible L-brackets

    Install a set of flexible L-brackets on the top of the frame. Screw on each side of the frame, aligned with the middle of the support frame to further stabilise whole panel.
    This is not only that for holding the handle stick later, but it will also make the procedures easier in case of the need to take down the acoustic panel in the future.DIY Flexible Acoustic Panel To Block Noise From Window - Step 4

  5. Finalise The Frame

    Now, the frame is done.DIY Flexible Acoustic Panel To Block Noise From Window - Step 5

  6. Insulation Installation

    Let’s start sound blocking step. As insulation, we recommend you use Rockwool stone wool refill materials. This is because it comes with ready-to-make size, 4ft x 2ft, fire retardant, durable and cost-effective. If you are not expecting very high-absorbing, Rockwool stonewool insulation is already good enough to block noises in some degree. Fill it into panel and trim it down to size (If your panel happen to be smaller size). To keep your insulation from sagging later, pull the stone wool tight as you glue it.DIY Flexible Acoustic Panel To Block Noise From Window - Step 6

  7. Adding a Wrap to the Acoustic Panels

    Final step.
    The absorption coefficient of your panels will be affected by the fabric you choose. The most crucial thing is that sound may flow through the cloth and be absorbed by the insulation.
    If you want to be more creative, you may use interesting fabric designs. Lighter colours, in general, will make your studio feel more spacious. For this guide, our customer used waterproof canvas due to this panel was installed on the parking porch. So choose the fabric that will be the best for you. 
    Place the cloth on a firm, clean surface. Place your panel in the middle of the fabric piece and wrap it. After that, hang the panel on the window to block the noise. DIY Flexible Acoustic Panel To Block Noise From Window - Step 7

Conclusion

As picture shown, you need to make sure the panel closes tighter to window to try to block outside noises coming through the window as much as you can. Although this is not a 100% effective soundproof window noises, but it can help. As we all know, the most expensive way to soundproof your windows is to replace your existing panes with double or triple glazed windows. Of course, you can go for soundproof window if you don’t have any budget control.

All in all, this is not a bad DIY idea if you want a cheap and fast way to solve noises problem from window.
