Installation of platbands - special additional elements, allows to improve the external performance of the door construction, hide from the eyes cracks and traces of the use of building materials and give a look completeness. Before mounting platbands must be cut off. The most common way is to trim parts at an angle of 45 degrees.
At the same time, it is almost impossible to independently trim the platbands at an angle without using special tools. To guarantee a positive result, you need to use special equipment that can be purchased at any hardware store. When using a miter box, which, if desired, can be made independently, the level of accuracy during trimming increases and the resulting elements reliably fit together.
Common mistakes
Many novice craftsmen perform cutting platbands on the reverse side. It is worth remembering that the cutting of wooden elements, as well as ceramic tiles, should be performed exclusively on the front side. Thanks to this approach, you can protect the product from chips and cracks on its surface.
Also, many beginners often confuse the sides on which to cut the slats. For their aesthetic and durable connection, one bar must be cut at an angle to the right, and the other to the left.
The upper platband should be fixed only after installing the side strips and measuring the distance between them. In this case, you can further insure yourself, because if you cut off the upper clypeus at the initial stage of the work, you can get an unreliable connection. It can be the result of a skewed door structure, uneven wall surfaces, or other external factors.
Fastening platbands
Fix platbands with ordinary or liquid nails. Recently, the second method is more popular, because it allows you to hide any defects obtained by mechanical action on the surface of the clypeus.
If small gaps remain when joining the upper and side platbands, they can be eliminated by using special wax for furniture. The color scheme of wax must be selected so that it is as close as possible to the color of the platbands. Avoiding common mistakes, you can independently mount door platbands, which will have a neat appearance, making the interior of the house more original.
