Fences in suburban areas can be built from different materials. But recently, for this purpose, in most cases, professional flooring has been used. Fences collected from this material have a long service life, reliability and aesthetic appearance. Reviews fences from corrugated board from the owners of suburban areas have earned just magnificent.
What are the advantages, according to summer residents, have such hedges
The main advantage of this type of fence is the owners of suburban areas, judging by the available reviews, consider them a relatively low cost. Since the weight of this material is not too large, it is not necessary to fill the foundation when assembling the fence from it. Budget options of such fences are mounted simply on supports from a profiled or ordinary pipe, concreted into the ground.
Good reviews about corrugated fences also exist because these structures are very durable. In the manufacture of metal sheets of this type, manufacturers cover them with a special polymer composition, significantly increasing their service life. Such material is not susceptible to corrosion. Accordingly, the fence from it can be operated for more than a dozen years.
The owners of suburban areas relate to the advantages of corrugated board and ease of installation. It is not difficult to assemble a fence from this material with your own hands. Sheets of this type are attached to the runs of the fence using conventional roofing screws. On supporting poles they are fixed through mortgages using the same fasteners.
Are there any negative reviews about fencing from corrugated board
The opinion of summer residents about the hedges of this type was actually very good. Such structures cost, of course, a little more expensive, for example, than the same picket, but they protect the space from prying eyes and the penetration of uninvited guests better.
The owners of suburban areas attribute some of the disadvantages of budget designs of this type to the fragility of their frame. After all, the supporting pillars of this type of fencing, like the runs, are assembled from ordinary rolled steel. They do not have a polymer layer. And therefore, over time, they begin to rust.
Reliability, according to summer residents, fences of such a design, of course, are inferior to concrete and brick fences. In any case, experienced owners of suburban plots recommend choosing a thick corrugated board for the construction of this type of hedge. Thin material can be easily cut with metal scissors. That is, country thieves on a site with such a hedge will be very easy to penetrate.
What sizes can be
Of course, many summer residents and owners of country houses are interested in including which corrugated board is best for the fence. Reviews of the fence made of this material have earned good. But they perform their functions well, of course, only fences assembled from suitable material for this purpose.
Professional flooring is being made today by many companies, unfortunately, not according to GOST, but according to TU. Accordingly, the sizes of such sheets can be very different. The width of corrugated board supplied to the market ranges from 800-1850 mm.
The length of this material, according to GOST, should be equal to 1060, 1200, 2300 or 6000 m. But for sheets made according to TU, this parameter, of course, may be different.
In thickness, there are also many varieties of this material. Such sheets are made by manufacturers of steel from 0.35 to 1.2 mm.
When choosing a professional flooring, the owner of a suburban area needs to pay attention to all these parameters. For example, fences made of very thin material of this type, reviews from the owners of summer cottages did not deserve too good. When operating on any hedge, serious wind loads act. And thin sheets during a hurricane can simply bend or even come off the frame.
It is believed that for the manufacture of fences only corrugated board with a thickness of 0.6 mm or more is suitable. Sometimes hedges from thinner material are also collected in the plots. In some cases, the territory of summer cottages and country houses can be fenced using even a 0.35 corrugated board for fence. Reviews such designs, as already mentioned, deserve not too good. But areas located in low-wind regions, fencing with such fences is still allowed.
The height of the future fence depends on such an indicator as the length of the material. Vertically, such fences are made without joints. This significantly increases their service life. And therefore, for the fences usually choose rather long sheets.
The distance between the fence supports depends on the width of the selected corrugated board. The smaller this figure, the more expensive the construction of the fence will cost.
What can be the height of the fence
In many cases, the owners of suburban areas for the collection of hedges choose corrugated board 2300 mm long. From such material, taking into account the foundation and location of the lower girder, a fence up to 2500 m high can be erected. Such a fence will protect the site from penetration by intruders as reliably as possible.
Quite often, for the construction of fences from corrugated board, the owners of cottages also choose a smaller material manufactured according to the technical specifications, for 1500 mm or 1800 mm or in accordance with GOST for 1300 mm. Fences 1.8 to 2 m high are constructed from such corrugated board. Such fences are bypassed 2.5 meters cheaper than the option. Moreover, they protect the territory almost as reliably. It is these fences that have earned the best reviews from summer residents. And it is precisely fences of 1.8-2 m in suburban areas that are erected most often.
Material Grades
The reputation of the manufacturer, of course, must also be taken into account when choosing material for the fence from corrugated board. In any case, you must first familiarize yourself with the reviews of the companies issuing such sheets.
For domestic summer residents and owners of residential buildings, for example, the professional flooring of brands is very popular:
- "Ural Roofing Materials Plant".
- MetalProfil.
- Tegola.
Most often, for the construction of hedges, the owners of summer cottages choose, of course, the material covered with a colored polymer protective composition. But sometimes such structures can also be built from galvanized corrugated board. Reviews fences collected from such sheets from summer residents also earned good. However, the life of such structures, as noted by the owners of suburban areas, is still lower.
Are fences built on 6 meters?
Such high fences in suburban areas are, of course, extremely rare. Sometimes designs of this type are installed around various kinds of industrial complexes. In some cases, such fences can also be erected in private areas. Such constructions are usually built by the owners of those country houses, which are located, for example, next to forest plantations. In such zones, as you know, all kinds of dark personalities can gather. A fence of 6 m will almost completely protect the site from the penetration of such people.
Distance between supports
Poles during the construction of fences from corrugated board can be mounted with different steps. Most owners of suburban areas consider optimal the distance between supports of 3 m. Such fences, judging by the reviews, are not very expensive and can be considered quite reliable. But sometimes the supports when assembling metal fences are mounted more often - with a step of 2.5 m. This is done if the sheathing of the fence is supposed to be done using a sufficiently thin corrugated board.
Joints between sheets vertically are allowed. That is, for the assembly of fences, you can use a fairly narrow material. However, when choosing a corrugated board for a hedge, the step between the supports should still be taken into account. The width of the material should be such that it subsequently does not have to be cut.
Some helpful suggestions
Reviews fences from corrugated board from summer residents and owners of suburban residential buildings have earned good. But to assemble such structures, of course, it is necessary in compliance with all the required technologies. When designing a fence from a profiled sheet, one should correctly choose not only this material itself. Pipe for support poles and runs should also be purchased taking into account standards. So, for example:
- for a fence 2 m high, supports 60 x 60 cm and runs 40 x 25 mm are installed in 2 rows;
- for hedges 2.5 m high - respectively pipes 80 x 80 mm and 60 x 40 mm in 3 rows.
For a fence with brick supports, owners of suburban areas are advised to choose a wider material. In this case, the supports can be positioned less often. Accordingly, the fence will be less expensive. In addition, he will look in this case not so bulky.
Many owners of suburban areas collect such hedges on their own. But sometimes this work is entrusted to specialists. Such owners of private houses, of course, are interested in including where it is better to order a fence from corrugated board. Reviews about organizations involved in the assembly of such structures, of course, there are different. Such companies operate in each more or less large settlement. In order to determine the best, it is worth first of all to visit the city or regional portal and get acquainted with the opinion of other summer residents about such companies.
For example, after reading reviews about fences from corrugated board in Tyumen, we can conclude that the best companies involved in the construction of such structures are Zaboroff, Fence Tyumen, etc. in this region. When choosing a company specializing in conducting of this kind of work, pay attention to her reputation, of course, be sure.
Wave height
Reviews about fences from corrugated board in Omsk, Yekaterinburg, Moscow, etc. from the owners of suburban areas, there are only good. But for such a design to turn out reliable, among other things, it is worth paying attention to the wave height of the material. The strength of the sheets depends on this indicator. Currently, manufacturers supply the market with two types of professional flooring - wall and roofing. The first type of material can have a wave height of 4 to 44 mm. For roofing material, this figure exceeds 44 mm.
In most cases, wall fencing is used to assemble fences. At the same time, summer residents consider such a material with a corrugation height of 10 mm to be the best option for a fence. Roofing sheets are usually used only for high fences enclosing production facilities in windy regions.
