metal siding installation

3. siding panels Ship board inserted into the slots on top, we bring them down to the limit.The first bottom panel is secured after it is locked with the help of home plate.Fasten it with the screws with the press washer 16 by 4.2 in the vertical guide along the upper edge;
4. Similarly fasten the other siding panels, continuously measuring the accuracy of the horizontal during the installation and while checking the coupling between panels.Panel length such that its ends can be designed not to reach the stop bar okolookonnoy in outer and inner corner of 8-10 mm;
5. If decorate the walls are windows, then we reach the beginning of the window opening, and make securing panel.If the length of the panel turned up the base of the opening, then it is cut at the top of the window width with the addition of 8-10 mm on the sides and on the depth of the window to create a slope tide;
6. After proceed to the mount frame of the window opening.Start by creating a tide window at an angle from the window.Reflux should be wider than the window opening of approximately 50-60mm per side.Edge windowed tide folded upwardly over the whole width of the outside of the metal siding.After doing the installation side sloping strips and the end of the top bar mount;
7. sure to check well Is Imported profile window trim, and if water gets into the flowing;
