Guardian EXT – Indoor and Outdoor Sound Control Panels

Indoor/Outdoor Panels for Noise and Surface Protection

When noise, physical contact, or everyday activity begins to impact a surrounding space, Guardian EXT Indoor/Outdoor Sound Control Panels provide a fast, practical solution. Each lightweight, modular panel combines a 2-inch acoustical fiberglass core with rugged, UV-resistant facings to absorb reflected sound, reduce noise transmission, and provide a cushioned barrier against incidental wall contact. Perimeter grommets allow the panels to be installed vertically or horizontally on fencing, structures, masonry, or interior wall surfaces, while durable materials withstand temperatures from -40°F to 180°F.
For exterior/outdoor applications, Guardian EXT is well suited for construction perimeters, generator enclosures, rooftop equipment, and temporary machinery barriers. Indoors, the panels can be used as acoustical wall padding in gymnasiums, recreational facilities, training areas, workshops, and other spaces where a padded wall surface may be beneficial. They can also serve as temporary protective panels inside elevators, corridors, loading areas, and service spaces to help guard finished surfaces during deliveries, construction, maintenance, and everyday use. Wherever adaptable sound control, cushioning, or surface protection is needed, Guardian EXT delivers a durable solution for both indoor and outdoor environments.
