Measure twice - cut once

First we need to make a calculation PVC panels to the amount of material was correct.To accurately calculate the wall is measured horizontally, i.e. in length.The result is divided by the width of one bar.For example, the length of the wall is 500 centimeters, then 500 divided by 25 (strap width) and the number of turns 20. Since the material is calculated for each wall.Then look at the height from floor to ceiling and in accordance with the height of the buy strips.

Important!Do not buy the amount of material back to back, needs some margin, suddenly meet contingencies.

Doing calculations amount of material required, from the total length subtract the value of all the openings, doors and windows.Separately calculated the amount of material for finishing around windows, top and bottom, and above the door.Taking into account the specifics of finishing of window and door openings, corners, interior and exterior types, counts the number of configuration elements.

frame - the basis of all

Assembling PVC panels is carried out on the supporting structure, crate.To this end, the wall is marking the distance of 50-60 centimeters.Further on there are established guides for PVC panels, which are fixed with screws and dowels.Vertical and horizontal rails are exposed to using level.If you do not achieve the vertical guide, the corners are curved.Reiki bearing design type necessarily mounted at an angle of 90 degrees to the panels, ie:

  • If the installation is done horizontally, then vertically;If
  • vertically, then horizontally (parallel to the floor).
  • If the installation is carried out at an angle, the angle of 90 degrees relative to the slats.

should also take into account other aspects, without which the framework for PVC panels may fail:

  • In rooms with high humidity are used instead of wood, galvanized metal profiles;
  • In places where the supposed installation of add-on elements are made auxiliary frame bars.

Important!To fix the ceiling moldings need to use a special fixture.

installation PVC panels with their hands

Now let's talk about how to fix the PVC panels.Internal angles at the corners are fixed clamps.Profile for PVC panels mounted to the side openings on the left side.The assembly begins with the fact that the plastic strip is inserted into the corner of the socket.Thereafter, the bar is fixed shelf mounting brackets.Follow strip is directed into the groove already mounted panels and brackets fixed to the sheathing.The third and the following are mounted similarly.While working to secure the necessary follow some rules:

  • slats are sealed until completely fit;
  • position of the first panel is regulated by level.

held cutting PVC panels if necessary.The question may arise, than to cut PVC panels?There are several ways.You can use a jigsaw or a simple knife, a ruler who made the cut, and it breaks down the profile.

Note!The most effective way to cut the panel - is to cut them with a knife and break along the cut. last panel plant in the corner groove and can be replaced on the end element.Concludes the whole work of installation of plinths which close as the joints between the floor and panels, as well as cables and wires.
