Platbands are integral parts of door structures, allowing to refine their appearance and hide various defects. Platbands are mounted immediately after installation of the door leaf and accessories. They should fit snugly to the wall surface, hiding any crevices and bumps.
In some cases, the installation of the clypeus is not exactly possible. Most often this happens due to uneven corners or walls. Also, the cause may be initially incorrect installation of the door frame or lack of space for installing a one-piece platband.
In order not to spoil the general appearance of the structure, you should saw it along. Many builders, especially beginners, are wondering which tool to use for cutting. After all, any inaccurate actions or insufficient pressure can cause damage to the product.
Tools for cutting platbands
For even cut platband along, you can use both manual and mechanical tools. It could be:
- Wood hacksaw;
- Manual jigsaw;
- A circular saw;
- Sandpaper.
Most often, the cut platbands are made using hand tools. Thanks to this approach, accurate cutting and preservation of the wood structure can be guaranteed. After all, the use of a circular saw requires experience and relevant skills to work with mechanical tools.
It is necessary to dissolve the platband, working with a hacksaw on the front side of the product. If you do not follow this rule, you can get uneven edges and an unaesthetic appearance.
Without fail, the product must be placed on a solid, level support. This will allow you to independently adjust the pressure level and provide for the appearance of cracks and chips on the surface.
Restoration of the place of cutting
After the work, the place of cutting must be carefully cleaned with sandpaper. This will allow you to polish the surface at the end of the clypeus and make it smooth.
At the final stage, you need to give the trimmed edge of the clypeus an appropriate color shade. To do this, use paint, varnish, sealant or a self-adhesive tinted film. With the correct conduct of all actions, it will not be possible to notice the place of cut with the naked eye. The most important thing is to carry out work with the utmost accuracy and only using the required tools.
