How to fix the Euro lining correctly?

When planning the decoration of the inner and outer surface of the walls, you can use various materials, each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages. The easiest to install and not too expensive will be the lining. It is this material that allows you to create a beautiful appearance of the surface, despite any problems with the surfaces of the walls, which will be completely hidden behind it.

Euro lining is a more modern variation of the usual wooden lining, but with a number of advantages. The accuracy in the dimensions of this material is as high as possible, therefore it is possible to correctly calculate the amount required for work. Unlike wood, the eurolining is not afraid of moisture, and it does not change its properties under its influence. In addition, modern material has a much more convenient mounting system, which makes it easy and quick to handle installation.

Euro lining has special grooves on each edgewhich help this material to breathe, especially in conditions with a changeable climate and high humidity. In addition, it is convenient to lay wiring or any wires that need to be hidden in such grooves. In this case, it is very important to carefully check the insulation of all wires that will fit behind the Euro lining.

The advantages of this finishing material include:

• stable dimensions of each canvas;
• preliminary antiseptic surface treatment;
• smooth surface, without significant roughness;
• a relatively simple way to mount on a wall or ceiling surface.

All this allows you to accurately calculate the amount of material required to complete the work, the absence of additional strips and a small amount of construction waste.

The material itself is created according to European designs and standards., has good characteristics for both indoor and outdoor use. The material is environmentally friendly, so it can be used in any premises.

You can fix the lining with self-tapping screws, staples, nails, dowels and clamps.

In order for the process of installing the euro lining to be fast and of high quality, you cannot do without a certain set of tools.

Among them must be:

• puncher;
• jigsaw, it is better if it is electric;
• drill;
• hammer;
• ruler and level;
• thread for checking the plumb line;
• self-tapping screws that are suitable for woodwork;
• kleimers.

With the help of a punch, it will be possible to prepare holes for dowels, into which the screws will enter while screwing the board. A jigsaw can be used to cut off the necessary pieces of material, especially if there are windows or other non-specific protrusions on the wall. For more efficiency and a quick pace of work, it is better to use a jigsaw.

A drill is required in order to mount wooden slats or metal profiles on the wall, into which the lining will be driven. You can hammer in the dowel-nails with a hammer, if they are used in work, or tap the slats so that they completely sit in place, without forming gaps and uneven seams. You need to work with such a task carefully so as not to spoil the edges of each rail. The ruler is necessary to draw a straight cut line of the material to minimize inaccuracies. In addition, sometimes you have to upholster a wall with windows, switches and other additional elements that need to be bypassed on both sides.With the help of the level, guides are built under the Euro lining. The result of the finished masonry on the wall depends on their evenness.

When a part of the lining is installed, it is necessary to check it with a plumb bob with a thread, if everything is fine, then you need to continue working, but if there are strong deviations, you need to get rid of them. The very fastening of the boards to the guides is done using self-tapping screws. Their size is selected taking into account the thickness of the lining and the distance to the wall.

One of the mounting options is a kleimer, which is a small bracket into which the lining is driven. With the help of a cleaimer, you can fix one board to the crate and install a second one on top of it, which will fit into the groove of the already fixed part. Such a fastening turns out to be reliable, because each part is attached to a solid base. When planning the installation of euro lining, it is best to initially decide on the installation method and purchase only the necessary materials. If the procedure is for the first time, then you can try each of the methods in a small area and determine for yourself the most convenient option for fastening materials, in accordance with which it will be necessary to select tools.

Laying eurolining is not difficult if you know all the nuances and patterns that you will have to face in the course of work. In order for the new material to appear on the wall and decorate it, and not spoil it, it is important to do everything without undue haste. Even a beginner can do the work with his own hands, but you need to properly prepare, collect the necessary tools and materials, find basic information on laying the lining.

Sheathing with this material can be made both on the wall surface and on the lathing made of wood or metal profiles. Without lathing, usually laying is done on brick and concrete walls, which are separated from the external material using roll insulation. The lining interacts most favorably with insulation made of cork, expanded polystyrene and polystyrene foam.

Before the facing material is installed on the wall, it must be treated with an antiseptic. To avoid deformation from moisture, it is necessary to level its level, withstanding the entire euro lining for 24 hours in the room where it will be laid. When installing adjacent panels, it is necessary to make small gaps, while the spike that connects the component parts is placed at the top, which will help to avoid the formation of condensation. In addition, a vapor barrier film is used for work, which must be made of high-quality polyethylene, which is laid on top of a roll of insulation.

Fastening of euro lining to uneven or wooden walls is carried out by installing the lathing. Despite the great laboriousness of the work, this option has its own advantage, the boards can breathe. The interior decoration can touch the walls in any of the rooms, it can also be used for the balcony. It is also possible to sheathe the ceiling with eurolining, if there is such a need.

For working with walls and ceilings, it is necessary to divide the surface on which the boards need to be installed, into rectangular areas, so that it is easier to determine the principle of laying the material. It is important to prepare the required amount of fastening materials. About thirty clamps are usually used per square meter, but it is better to purchase them with a small margin. It is very important to look at the quality of these elements, they should not be damaged, uneven, and the thickness should not exceed one millimeter, in addition, the clamps must be coated against corrosion.

The lining is installed from the bottom corner, where there are no windows or doors.If the room is small, you need a horizontal slope of the boards when laying, which will visually lengthen the room, if the ceilings are low, then the material must be laid vertically. In the event that, in addition to the walls, work will be carried out on the floor, laying the coating or plinth, then the lining is recruited from top to bottom, and if the work will be carried out with the ceiling, then you should move in the opposite direction.

The work on finishing the walls with eurolining should begin with the installation of wiringif needed. All wires must be placed in corrugations that are flame resistant. After this procedure, it is necessary to add the material itself and leave it for a day for acclimatization, at this time taking care of the fasteners. Often, preference for one type or another is given by the manufacturer, and he indicates this information in the instructions.

When everything is ready for work, it is necessary to determine the direction of laying the board, there are different ways that it can be laid on the wall:

• horizontally;
• vertically;
• fit diagonally;
• have a combined type of styling.

When the idea is formed, you need to start real action. The first point will be to create the crate. It can be assembled both from wooden boards and from metal profiles, which is less common. If wood was chosen as the material, it must be impregnated with protective agents in order to increase the service life of the entire structure.

It is necessary to fasten each lathing log no more than 80 cm from each other, in the direction from bottom to top or in the opposite direction. Before you start sheathing with Euro planks, you need to check the crate with a level. This is the most important stage on which the entire future result depends. The location of the lathing depends on the option of fixing the boards. If they are located vertically, then the boards for fastening must be nailed in the horizontal direction and vice versa.

For this process, you can use:

• nails;
• self-tapping screws;
• kleimers.

The latter are considered the most suitable option, since they are not visible after installation, unlike all previous options. Usually they are made of a material that does not rust or deteriorate, so you can use clamps in any room. The cost of such elements is much higher than that of the others, but the result of the work is many times better.

When planning the facing of a separate wall or an entire room with eurolining, it is important to know not only the basic requirements, but also small but important nuances that will help in the work and make the result an order of magnitude better.

When making calculations for the material that will be needed in the work, it is important to use the correct parameters. If the real width of the board is taken for the calculation, then in the final result the error will be more than five percent. This is due to the grooves that partially enter the previous board, which reduces the working surface.

If the room in which the lining will be installed has small dimensions, then this material on the ceiling should lie along the window, in addition, you can use combined masonry by making some kind of pattern or combination on the ceiling surface.

When attaching the lining, it is also important to be careful, if the laying goes in a horizontal direction, then the spike should be located at the top, but not on the back side. Do not forget that the level must constantly check the correctness of the laying of the material. If it is laid correctly, then the room will have even corners and the correct shape, which will visually expand it.

After installation, the finished material can be painted in any colorif necessary. The room can be filled with sunlight from the euro lining under natural wood, or the space will receive a new breath and lightness when painted in light colors. The correct selection of the type of installation, the appropriate color scheme can make any room with Euro-lining cozy.

The rooms in which this material can be used are completely different, the options for their design also differ quite strongly. It is important to use only the required amount of material so as not to burden the room with monotonous material. If you cannot get away from this, then by toning the walls in different shades, you can remove some tension that can arise from a room completely upholstered with wood.

In the bedroom, eurolining helps to create a warm atmosphere, and the transition of boards from wall to ceiling blurs the boundaries of the room, leading away from the usual corners that remain invisible, although they are present in the room. The use of soft colors in textiles helps to make the room light and airy.

Hallways are characterized by the use of horizontal laying of the board, which visually lengthens the space, which is very necessary in small apartments, where corridors and hallways have very small dimensions.

You can use the lining even in the bathroom, where there is often not enough space, and it is difficult to find a good wall covering so that it is both beautiful and functional. Light tones add space, while dark and lighter woody accents add zest to the interior.

The balcony sheathed with Euro-lining has a very neat look, and the imitation of wood creates the impression of a natural finish of the room. Due to the horizontal arrangement of the boards, the room seems large, despite its standard modest dimensions. It is important that materials imitating wood were used in the decoration of the entire balcony, and the floor and ceiling continue the line defined by the walls of this small room. It will be pleasant to relax on such a balcony, having installed an armchair and a small coffee table, and devote some time to yourself.
