One, what is the skirting
The skirting is used in the junction of the wall and the floor of the decorative nodes, can protect the wall, reduce the deformation of the wall, but also to avoid the destruction of the wall of external forces. The common floor skirting has wooden floor skirting, aluminum alloy floor skirting, PVC floor skirting, stainless steel floor skirting and so on. Wooden skirting looks softer, installation is also very simple, the disadvantage is easy to deformation. Aluminum alloy skirting is relatively durable, not only moisture-proof fire, and solved the problem of skirting easy to deformation. pvc skirting cost is low, rich style, but the surface of the surface layer is easy to fall off the impact of beauty, visual effect is relatively poor compared to wooden skirting.
Second, how to install the footer line is better
1. Drilling: drilling holes should be observed before the direction of the wiring of the water and electricity, to prevent mistakes. Drilling intervals can not be too large, or skirting is difficult to stick to the wall. Use special tools to drill holes in the wall. The common length of skirting is 2m, in order to fix the skirting more firmly, the drilling interval should be about 40cm, and the interval at the interface should be smaller. Nail small strips of wood into the holes you have just drilled. The nails for fixing the skirting are nailed to this wooden strip, and the nails are easy to loosen when nailed directly to the wall. Note: As the pipe of the plumbing project is buried in the wall, directly below the switch socket is the location of the pipeline, punch holes to calculate the location to avoid damage.
2. Fixed: Fixed skirting before the wall should be leveled, cleaned up, or skirting installed, can not be completely tight to the wall, it will leave an unsightly gap. Look at the location of the drilled holes, and then fix the nails to the skirting. When fixing, pay attention to whether the skirting and the wall are tightly adhered to, and the nails should also be completely missing into the skirting, not visible. Note: Whether polymer, density board, wood material skirting, have the characteristics of thermal expansion and contraction, so by the corner of the skirting should also be like the floor, leaving about 1cm expansion gap.
3. Corner treatment: corner of the wall, skirting intersection, skirting the edge of the 45-degree angle of the cut, so that the interface will not leave unsightly traces. The cut skirting will be fixed. Note: the corner of the skirting should be cut at a 45-degree angle before splicing and installation, otherwise it will affect the beauty.
4. Installation points: the nails to fix the skirting to use a special threaded nails, so that the fixing effect is better, not easy to loosen. We should pay attention to whether the manufacturers cut corners. Skirting was originally designed to cover the expansion joints of the floor, so that the ground is more beautiful. Therefore, the intersecting edges of the skirting should be scraped flat with a planer. Skirting is more aesthetically pleasing when it is completely tight to the wall, leaving no gaps, especially in the corners. The flatness of the wall should be tested right before installation.
The above is what is the skirting, skirting how to install better all the content, I hope to help you understand the skirting installation related knowledge, more decoration knowledge, decoration company evaluation, decoration cases please continue to pay attention.
