The invention relates to a method for laying and mechanically connecting panels (10) in rows (40, 42, 44) parallel to one another, the panels (10) having locking means on their side edges (12, 14, 16, 18), which locking means are embodied essentially in the form of a tongue and groove connection and allow the panels (10) to be connected by pivoting them into one another. In the method according to the invention, the procedure is as follows: Initially in a first step a plurality of panels (10) of a panel row (44) to be newly laid are connected to one another in pairs. Later in a second step the panels (10) connected to one another of the panel row (44) to be newly laid are connected to the panels of the panel row (42) already laid by pivoting the locking means into one another, working in one or more sub-steps beginning at one (46a) of the ends of the panel row (44) to be newly laid, utilizing the torsional flexibility of the panels (10), in sections to the other (46b) of the ends, whereby the panels (10) are connected to one another in a zipper-like manner.
