Interior doors for the interior have the same meaning as furniture. They give the interior a special chic. But only in the case of correctly selected and high-quality installed doors. Some experts believe that repairs should begin with their installation. Everything is exactly the opposite: all dirty and wet work is done, and only after that the doors are installed.
Choose the door
So, the decision to replace the doors made. First you need to decide what to buy. Color and patterns are usually chosen to match the furniture to the taste of the owner. Standard sizes of interior doors: height - 2000 mm, width - 600 mm, 700 mm, 800 mm. According to the material, there are three options:
- Canvas from the array. The structure of the tree is clearly visible, beautiful, practical. The disadvantage is a change in linear dimensions depending on humidity. For installation in the opening of the bathroom is not recommended.
- Laminated canvas. Large selection of colors, patterns, moisture resistance. The disadvantage is that damage is noticeable on the surface, you need to be careful during operation.
- Veneered. The best option, combine the advantages of the first and second, without having their drawbacks. Aesthetic and durable in use.
Merim accurate to millimeter
Firms selling doors are involved in their installation. Therefore, a visit to a specialist is important. After the customer has chosen the color and model of the canvas, the company sends a measurer to him. To avoid errors, this procedure is required to be carried out on site, and details should be clarified.
The standard dimensions of the box of interior doors are 75 × 35 × 2100 mm. You may need to install additional strips and transoms. It is necessary to accurately calculate the required number of box profile, casing, seal. In any case, consultation with a specialist is required, who will then install the door. If he makes a mistake, then he should correct everything, and not for you.
Remember that prices are set for standard sizes of interior doors. If they are different, the canvas will cost about 30% more expensive. This is explained by the fact that you have to stop the in-line production process, reconfigure the equipment to an individual size (after again reconfigure it to standard). With the width of the interior opening from 1300 mm, interior double doors are installed . Their sizes are the same as ordinary standard canvases.
We set the door
To be more precise, consider the installation process itself. Two canvases are taken, loops are installed on opposite sides. It turns oar double doors. For example, if the opening is 1300 mm, two sheets of 600 mm wide are used. This design will require 1.5 times more linear products, as well as a mock bar, which visually hides the gap between the elements. A gap of 2 to 5 mm is allowed between the door and the frame along all four planes, as well as between the canvases in a double-leaf construction.
The common standard sizes of interior doors are 800 mm, openings less than 900 mm wide are usually found in bathrooms and closets. In addition to swing opening, the “accordion” option and sliding models are also possible.
The first is inconvenient if there are small children in the house. The second is possible if you have standard sizes of interior doors in your house. In addition, sliding products do not provide tightness and sound insulation between rooms. And it should be remembered that such doors are not closed.
