How to stick to the ceiling moldings Stretch ceilings - the technique from A to Z

worth just to clarify that the ceiling plinth is glued directly to the stretch ceilings - quirk (the name of this kind of skirting) to the most web does not stick only to the wall.We will not go into details, for whatever reason, because we are interested in the very method of fastening.The main thing to understand is that this is the feature of the installation of these products.

Plinths are mounted on the final stage of finishing the ceiling and serve to cover the gap formed between the surface and the suspension elements of the structure (usually a metal profile rail, are "fastened" to the walls around the perimeter of the room and keep the fabric).

Materials for the production of fillets enough.That is why all the ceiling moldings are divided into "light" (plastic, polystyrene and its variants) and "heavy" (plaster moldings, wood).We will not consider the question of how to choose a ceiling moldings which have advantages and disadvantages of its varieties.Let us directly on the technology of the work in relation to the plinth of the foam, as most people prefer to buy it of them.

What is the main problem?Fit skirting boards to each other so as to form a thin, smooth weld joints in place.Of course, you can try to cut the fillet at an angle "by eye", but the connection quality is low - after their fixation on the wall between the slits, and quite large, can not be avoided.Yes, and material consumption will be appropriate.Therefore it is better to use one of the following methods.

Manufacturing "standards»

Whatever type of skirting is chosen, you need to buy 1 - 2 rail fillets foam.For the purse is not burdensome, as the cost of the cheapest 1 m somewhere within 100 rubles.The width of the samples in this case irrelevant.Our task - to prepare 2 pairs skirting pieces that will fit perfectly when connecting its corner cut each other.Here on the acquired products and foam should be trained.Why does it need 2 pair, of course.One - as a model for inner corners, and the other - for external.

By definition, they are all equal in the room 900 (although in practice this is not the case).Here it is necessary, and navigate.It is not necessary to be a great expert in geometry to understand that every piece of skirting board to cut the edge at an angle of 450, and then attach them to each other at the place of installation.

Immediately it becomes clear where and how much to trim.After an exact match of the end parts of such blanks should be fine for the role model.

Naturally, in some places (not only at the corners), after fastening between the baseboards can be, though small gap.This is due to the fact that it is absolutely smooth walls do not exist.Therefore, focusing on the same exemplary couple, a perfect fit will not work.But it's not scary.Joints excellent "masked" sealant white (or acrylic sealer).Given that the plinth at a height under the ceiling, it will be virtually unnoticeable.

cutting with miter box

This device can be purchased at the same points of sale (it is "penny").It is a plate, the sides of which are nailed two more.They - prepared slits where the web is placed on metal hacksaw.The figure itself is clear and device design, and methods of cropping fillets.

Mitre can be done independently, but does it make sense to spend time on it, given the cost of the finished product?And if it is not commercially available, in principle, nothing terrible will happen.What makes this device?A minor time savings, which will have to spend on the "training" in the first method.For a perfect fit skirting boards must also ensure, as with its purchase of the wall will not be smoother.

use of prefabricated parts

If skirting boards are purchased from a retailer, then they probably have for sale.This problem is somewhat simplified, since the plinth have to connect with them, therefore, cut at an angle 900, which is much more convenient.

mount "easy" skirting

Action Description of the algorithm takes up little space, since the technology - simply nowhere.

Layout

If the top of the left slot (between the door and the plinth), it will be noticeable.The main thing is that the lower edge of the fillets lying on the same row.No need to explain that the curve of the strip skirting appeal will not add a room.Here the horizontal line, and should identify.What and how - a pencil, stretched fishing line or otherwise - each owner decides himself.

Fixation adhesive is applied only to the part of the plinth, which will be adjacent to the wall.It is also understandable.Thereafter fillet applied to the substrate and held for a few minutes (to "setting").Features mounting must be indicated on the package with glue (or embedded in her instructions).in fact the technology is not much different from the bonding ceiling moldings.

Mouldings "heavy»

general principle of securing a little different, so we note only nuances.Selection techniques depends largely on the weight of the moldings (their material, width).

first option

mount is made directly to the substrate.Therefore, a place that will lay the fillet should be "bare", since it is not advisable to glue on the wallpaper.Trim them in line with a sharp knife will not make difficulties.The peculiarity is that the plot (band) need further primed to improve its adhesion.Plus - glue applied not only to the back side of the plinth, and on the bare substrate.It will provide high-quality "setting" material.

second option

According to the planned line, with a certain interval, set wooden corners, to which are attached the fillet.

few tips

• If between the top edge of the ceiling moldings and cloth leave a small gap, it is possible to "hide" LED tape.This is a fairly original solution of the room lighting.
• With skirting desirable immediately purchase and recommended for their adhesive.Navigate to the fact that "I have some old stocks" is not worth it.Especially if it is a quirk of the foams.No one knows how they "react" to this adhesive.After all, this type of skirting boards must be used for the bonding agent to the recommended chemical composition.
• walls are different.Therefore, the method of attachment is chosen based on whether they are made of any material.For example, if it is wood, there is no reason to install wooden corners (under not too massive plinth).
