Frequently asked questions
Q. How does Boardmate reduce the effort of board installation.
A. By virtue of it’s unique locating and supporting capabilities.
Q. Will Boardmate increase my productivity.
A. On site field testing has measured increased productivity levels in some cases exceeding 100%. In many situations Boardmate enables tasks to be undertaken single handed that would ordinarily require a second person.
Q. How will Boardmate help to install board on ceilings.
A. With a Boardmate in place on one edge of the previously fixed board you can rapidly and accurately position the next board as Boardmate provides full support to one edge of the new board. When a pair of Boardmates are employed so that two edges are supported, the remaining weight of the board can comfortably be managed by one hand. Once a strategic fixing is made, both hands are then free to check alignment and make any final adjustments before the remaining fixings are driven home.
Q. Is Boardmate suitable for sloping linings.
A. With a pair of Boardmates in place on the previous board, the next board is quickly and accurately located and held in place along the lower edge. Once again the board can easily be held in place with one hand.
Q. Is Boardmate suitable for vertical linings.
A. By employing a pair of Boardmates, one at the top of the long edge and one in the middle of the short edge of the previously fixed boards, the new board is rapidly located and held securely leaving both hands free.
Q. What thickness of board is Boardmate suitable for.
A. Any.
Q. Can Boardmate be used for multiple layer work.
A. Yes.
Q. What is the working life of Boardmate.
A. Boardmate is robustly made of non wearing ABS Plastic. Designed to last indefinitely.

"I don't mind saying that my remodel of this condominium is going to be a much nicer experience due to the Boardmates. They are easy to use and a real joy to hold. Hefty, well machined and finished, no rough edges - I expect them to go 20 years or more. It's not easy for a normal sized woman to work alone doing drywall, the Boardmates really make a difference.
