I am working on an extension and considering how to attach paneling to the inside of the exterior walls. It will probably be fine-sawn exterior panel board 17x120.
The walls consist of vertical 45x220 studs, plastic, horizontal 45x45. We also need OSB boards to stabilize the walls since there are no boards on the outside. (requirement from the constructor who calculated the house)
If we just go ahead and attach OSB and then horizontal paneling, you won't be able to attach the paneling to the underlying studs. It doesn't feel very stable for the paneling to just hang on the OSB. So my question is if this will be good? Or do I need to install noggins between the horizontal 45x45 to then attach the paneling to them?
Does it work to fasten the paneling with a nail gun? Again, it feels better/more stable to screw into the OSB. But the screws will be much more visible.
What type of panel is it? You can attach it with panel clips or do as I did, screw at an angle downwards into the groove of the panel. Then no screw heads are visible.
Then there's no problem with just attaching to OSB. Our new-old kitchen was only hanging on the OSB boards.
The last time I installed paneling, I used a nail gun through the back part of the tongue. It will probably be difficult to remove without causing damage, but you can't see any nail heads. There are also so-called panel clips, but I felt it was unnecessary...
When I last installed paneling, I used a nail gun through the back part of the groove. It will probably be difficult to remove without damaging everything, but you don't see any nail heads. There are also so-called panel clips, but I thought it seemed unnecessary..
There's no groove on the panel we were thinking of using.
There is no groove on the panel we intended to use.
I should have read up on that.. Do you want to be able to take it down easily or is it more important for the setup to be 'invisible'?
If you nail crosswise, i.e., one slanted upwards and one slanted downwards, it should hold, right?

Some feedback on how we did it.
We used 15 mm tongue and groove inner paneling instead of what I previously wrote. Kept the 11 mm OSB and didn't add any extra battening. The paneling was nailed with a finish nailer into the groove. It turned out stable enough, it gives a little if you tackle the wall. We can live with that
