Instruction for installing the wall panels in the kitchen.Step 1: Calculation of the number of wall panels

calculation errors are unacceptable, because the warehouses can not be given after the colors or shades of the parties will be different.It is necessary to measure the width of the wall and divide the width of the selected panel.Accordingly, the length of the room we share in this by the length of the sheet material.So you calculate the number of panels needed to ensure that tightly sew up the wall in the kitchen.

Note!Do not try to calculate the number of panels, dividing wall area per leaf area, as this type of calculation is not considered the amount of scraps, which will be suitable for installation, and as a result the material is not enough.

If the wall is not necessary to sew up tightly and leave openings for doors and windows, consider the above-described method, calculating the first large sections of the wall, and after a small (part of the wall above the door, above and below the window).If you have to cut the panel, it is likely that these scraps would be enough to sew up small areas.If pruning much smaller or not, expect the material on the whole wall, and then just carve openings in the place.

second sheet is attached to the first.Retaining edge fixed to the purlins.According to this principle is carried out following installation of the panels.Strict panels fixed line location level.
