INSANELY COOL PANELS!!!! Much like Brad, I wasn't much into Vacuform Panels due to their price but you definitely have opened the market up a lot wider!

One mans junk is another mans kick-ass new prop...
Here are the Flip panels for 2 of the doors. Flip means that these 3 walls can be put in any order side by side and can also be flipped upside down and still match up for a ton of different combination's. To make them more versatile they can be painted either for the bulkhead door (Ship) or freddy (Boiler) scene. We will add a fourth wall for even more variety.. a porthole.
We will trim out the black vents for our haunt and have fog drip through them. Add the spike wall with the same paint scheme..... add boiler and chains!!!!
Again these panels are displayed unmounted and not trimmed. Hung with a few pieces of tape. They have not been trimmed so we did not push them together. Shown as shipped.
Website...ugh! I am for some reason trying to build it myself...give me a week.
Mounting
You can attach several ways and depending on traffic. If people are going to hit or bounce into them you want a solid back of wood. If its a permanent haunt I would just screw or glue to walls. If it is backing a display where you are not going to have a lot impact I would do it like they do on movie sets. It is super fast, super light. My little daughter can move them easily and they can screw into each other. You could get a room up in minutes . I use scaffold in my haunt so I will zip tie them to the post and fire retardant material. So it depends on the abuse they are going to take.
Here are examples of one from the set of the Movie the Mummy and how they mount them for fast setup and tear down. They are stapled on the outside edge, so the staples can not be seen from the front. One of the reasons its nice to have the hard edge we don't trim off........ that's my dog Zero..not for sale.
