This variety of structures is a great solution to the issue of saving a useful area of a small -sized apartment. But how to install the interior door of the compartment yourself? Firstly, you need to prepare accordingly for the installation process. For this you will need:
corresponding canvas;
mechanism of this design;
guide profile;
Self -tapping screws (on wood) or finish nails;
Anchor;
roulette;
platbands;
hammer;
screwdriver;
level;
a wooden beam of a square shape (section – 50 mm);
special fittings;
nail;
ticks;
chisel.
When all of the above is ready, you can start.
Step -by -step installation process
The first stage is the removal of the old door structure. By the way, it is better to perform this operation together. And more convenient and safer. First you need to remove the platbands. If they were nailed with nails with hats, then we use a nail, if without ticks. A nail is also necessary in order to raise the door. After the canvas is removed, the box is removed. The old door hinges should be dismantled without fail: we will definitely not need them anymore. Check the opening using the construction level. If necessary, it will have to align. If cracks or cracks are detected, you need to thoroughly put them in.
When the opening is prepared, we go to the second stage. Here you need to work with a door panel. In its lower part, using a chisel, you need to cut a groove. We put the guide in the resulting groove, which is made in the form of a “P” letter and fix it. The guide rollers will move inside this element. We insert them into the lower bar. After that, you can install the canvas on the lower guide, simultaneously attaching it to the rollers. It is quite simple to do this: you just need to start the door to the grooves that are in the bases of the rollers. Keep in mind that it is quite difficult to cope with this operation. Therefore, the help of a partner will be as well as possible.
In accordance with the position of the doorway, the doorway should be determined where the upper guide is located, that is, on the plane of the wall exactly above the opening. Now we leave the door at rest and apply marking to the place where we will have this guide (upper).
We take a pre -prepared timber and fix the metal guide on it. Then we attach it to the upper end of the structure using anchors. Be sure to check the slope with the level. The location of the timber should be perfectly horizontal. To prevent spontaneous opening or closing the canvas. Install it a little devoid of the upper part from yourself. We start the upper rollers to the upper guide, raise a slightly design and perform a similar action with the lower rollers and the corresponding guide.
So that our new door does not fly outside the guides, you need to install the limiters of movement. We fasten the handle to the canvas. The upper guide can be closed with a decorative panel. Simply put, platbands. We will need finish nails or screws in order to attach them to the beam. Decorative panel can be masked with special buttons. Also decorative.
And here we are on the finish line. It remains only to conduct the final “tests”: we open and close the door structure several times. Thus, not only the smoothness and softness of its stroke is checked, but also the reliability of fixation. If everything is in order, then you can safely congratulate yourself on a successfully completed task.
