Tileable Wall Niche 210, Art. No. 12796

The tileable wall niche 210 is a high-quality expanded polystyrene installation element for creating generous storage areas inside walls.

With internal dimensions of 50 x 30 x 18 cm, the niche provides ample space for care products, bathroom accessories and decorative items. Its external dimensions are 56 x 36 x 21 cm. The model is particularly suitable for wall depths of 17.5 cm in new construction and installation situations up to 21 cm in renovation projects.

The prefabricated wall element is manufactured from stable expanded polystyrene, or EPS. An integrated honeycomb structure provides high stability and low-distortion installation despite the low approximate weight of 0.3 kg. The material is resistant to ageing and moisture and can be cut and processed easily.

Installing the tileable wall niche 210 in drywall and masonry construction

The tileable wall niche 210 is suitable for appropriate masonry structures and aluminium stud walls. Depending on the substrate and installation situation, it can be fixed using adhesive or screws. In new construction, the niche can be incorporated directly into the planned wall assembly.

When retrofitting the element into an existing wall, a suitable wall opening must first be created. Any protruding section can be trimmed flush with the plaster surface after installation. The wall depth, pipework, electrical cables, substrate and fixing options must be checked before work begins.

Tiles, plaster and LED lighting for the tileable wall niche 210

After professional installation, the tileable wall niche 210 can be tiled directly using the thin-bed method. Alternatively, suitable plaster, filler or coating materials can be applied. This allows the integrated shelf to be coordinated with the tile layout and overall room design.

The EPS material can also be modified for suitable lighting tracks and LED profiles. Depending on the design, these can be fixed to the surface or recessed into a matching cut-out. Electrical connections, cable routing, protection rating and heat development must be planned professionally.

More storage with the modular tileable wall niche 210

The tileable wall niche 210 can be joined to another element to create a wider storage area. This makes it possible to produce individual niche widths for showers, washbasin areas and other suitable interior spaces. When combining several elements, the fixing, alignment and surface finish must be coordinated with the relevant wall structure.

According to the available product information, additional waterproofing inside the element is generally not required. Connections, transitions and adjacent areas must nevertheless be completed according to the project-specific waterproofing concept and applicable installation requirements.

The tileable wall niche 210 is particularly suitable for professional tilers, drywall contractors, sanitary installation companies, construction companies, renovation contractors and interior fit-out specialists. Where increased chemical, mechanical or continuous moisture loads are expected, the suitability of all materials and components must be assessed for the specific project.
