Profile guide - simplicity and reliability
Just a few years ago, when erectedpartitions masters had to suffer for a very long time, because wooden bars were used as a frame. And not the best quality. And if it was required to make a wrong-shaped design, then, as they say in the common people, at least
When manufacturing interior partitions inAs a basis for them a rigid frame made of metal profile is used. It is produced by the method of cold rolling a tape made of galvanized steel with a thickness of up to 0.8 millimeters. The galvanizing layer protects the guiding profile for drywall from external factors. This measure is necessary because the partitions and ducts are sometimes assembled in wet rooms, for example, in bathrooms or shower rooms.
The guide profile is produced in the mainlength of three meters. In order to withstand heavy loads, for example, when facing the partitions with ceramic tiles, stiffeners are made on the profiles.
When assembling frames, profiles of different types are used, each of which has its own purpose.
The first type is a rack-mount profile
- It has an «-shaped shape and abbreviation PS. The main function is the fastening to it of drywall sheets or other finishing materials used in the manufacture of partitions and boxes.
The second type is the profile
- Also made in the form of a channel and brieflycalled PN. When assembling the frame, it serves as a guiding profile for the rack. Throughout the length it has eight-millimeter holes for dowels for installation to the floor or wall.
The third type is the angular profile
- It is intended for strengthening of corner joints atinstallation of plasterboard. Perforated with 5mm holes for best bonding with drywall sheets when applying putty. Short name - PU. It is also produced in length of three meters.
The fourth type is the arch profile
- It is used for manufacturing curvilinearsurfaces from gypsum board. For its production, the profile of the ceiling guide PP-6027 is used. With its help, you can specify any bend radius, but not less than fifty centimeters.
Of course, in the manufacture of partitionsnot only the profile of the guide is used. For this purpose, various insulation materials are used to insulate or create noise insulation. Plasterboard, cement-particle boards, plywood and other materials can be used as the plating.
Modern technologies have greatly facilitatedmany construction work. A large amount of material allows you to create partitions of various shapes in the interior in a short period of time, and, most importantly, using a guide profile, you can do it yourself, without attracting expensive specialists.
