Floor plastic skirting boards are designedespecially to hide the installation gap between the floor covering and the walls. They replaced more traditional wooden products. Floor plastic skirting boards can be made as thin as possible, since in combination with carpet or laminate they perform only decorative functions. The thickness of these products remains relevant only when laying the parquet, because in this case the gap often reaches two centimeters. Everything is in direct proportion to the floor area.
Floor plastic skirting boards are often used forprotection of walls from various damages: moisture during cleaning or blows with furniture, cleaning equipment, legs. In most cases, these products are made of foamed polyvinyl chloride. The process of foaming makes it possible to make the skirting mass minimal. In the composition of this substance special stabilizers are added, which makes the product as resistant to moisture, ultraviolet and aggressive chemicals that you can use for cleaning.
As plinth floor plastic, heightwhich can be up to three centimeters, does not absorb moisture, it is not afraid of rot and corrosion. Such a product is easier to choose according to the color that will be optimal for the selected floor covering. The plinth can be painted under a tree, imitating a natural structure. Under the plastic skirting, you can lay a cable, for which in its design a special channel is provided.
It is important to take care that the cable,placed in the plinth, was not accidentally punched with a nail or a screw. However, it is not necessary to lay the cable during the installation of the skirting board, this can be done later. It will be necessary to loosen the screws to install it in the groove.
The installation of skirting starts from the cornerroom. They are screwed with screws at a distance of approximately 40-70 centimeters. When there is a need to connect with the angle, a suitable piece is measured and installed in its place. It is worth considering and millimeters covering technical gaps in the connectors.
Plinth floor plastic wide, as well as narrow, can be fixed by one of the ways:
If the installation skirting is assumed to be largea period of time, while it is not planned to change or dismantle, then you can use glue. Clip clips are appropriate to use only in cases where the skirting does not provide cable channels. When installing this way, you need to remember that the cost of the clips is not included in the price of the baseboard itself. The surface of the walls should be smooth, otherwise the product will not hold. The most aesthetic and practical is the method of fastening with self-tapping screws, since in this case there is a special cable channel.
As you can see, floor plastic skirting boards are a very useful invention of modern industry.
