Description
Create stunning large-format feature walls with our 2x3 grid template optimized for 36x72 inch slab installations. This professional DXF template divides the expansive surface into six precisely proportioned panels with 1/4 inch grout spacing, perfect for high-impact commercial lobbies, luxury residential accent walls, and architectural showpieces. The larger format maximizes material utilization while creating bold geometric statements in contemporary interior spaces. Designed specifically for fabricators working with jumbo-sized slabs including porcelain, sintered stone, and large-format quartz materials, this template ensures accurate panel dimensions of 17.875 x 23.833 inches each. The quarter-inch grout lines provide visual definition between panels while maintaining the dramatic scale that makes large-format installations so impressive. Compatible with all major CNC cutting systems and suitable for both vertical wall cladding and horizontal surface applications.

Installation Overview
Large-format feature wall installation demands precise substrate preparation and robust mounting systems capable of supporting significant weight. Begin with thorough wall inspection to ensure structural capacity for six large panels, then establish laser-level reference lines for accurate grid placement. The 36x72 overall dimension requires careful handling procedures during panel transport and positioning. Professional installers typically use mechanical anchoring systems with supplemental adhesive bonding for vertical installations. The 1/4 inch grout spacing allows sufficient tolerance for field adjustments while maintaining clean sight lines across the six-panel array. Consider using vacuum lifting equipment for safe panel handling and positioning during the installation process.
CNC Cutting Notes
This template requires CNC equipment capable of handling large-format materials up to 36x72 inches. Program cutting paths to produce six panels at 17.875 x 23.833 inches with precise 90-degree corners and consistent edge quality. The 0.25 inch grout spacing is factored into panel dimensions - verify measurements before cutting production runs. For materials with directional veining or patterns, plan your cutting layout to maintain grain consistency across the grid. Edge profiles should be specified based on installation method - polished edges for exposed perimeters, standard cut edges where grout will conceal panel edges. Label each panel clearly with grid position identifiers to prevent installation errors on the jobsite.
Material Compatibility
This large-format template excels with jumbo porcelain slabs, sintered stone products, and oversized quartz materials that accommodate the 36x72 overall dimensions. Natural stone options include granite and quartzite in appropriate slab sizes, though availability of adequately sized natural materials may be limited. The panel sizes work well with 3cm material thickness for substantial presence and structural integrity. When working with book-matched or sequence-matched materials, the six-panel grid allows for dramatic vein continuity and pattern flow. Lighter-weight porcelain options may be preferable for installations where wall loading is a concern, offering similar aesthetics with reduced structural demands.
Where to Buy
