Wooden Map Installation and Care
A wooden world map looks most convincing when the installation is planned before the package is opened. Treat it as a wall composition: confirm the surface, mark the layout, keep the supplied instructions close and allow time to place the main sections and smaller pieces carefully.
Before you buy
Check that the intended wall is suitable for the selected mounting method and that the finished map will have room around furniture, switches and doors. Read the current product-specific instructions before ordering, especially for LED versions, larger maps and walls with textured or delicate finishes.
A practical installation sequence
Mark the centre line and outline the selected map size.
Use the supplied templates and instructions for the main continents before smaller pieces.
Place islands, compass, Antarctica and optional accessories only after the main map reads correctly from normal viewing distance.
For LED maps, plan the power route and check the current installation notes before fixing the final position.
Care after installation
Keep cleaning simple and follow the current product guidance. Avoid introducing aggressive cleaners or a lot of moisture to natural wood surfaces. If you are unsure about a wall, an adhesive or the care method for a selected finish, contact support before proceeding rather than testing it on a visible map area.
The goal is a calm, accurate layout. Work from the main map outward and check the composition from normal viewing distance before placing smaller island and accessory pieces.
