There are many swing type doors that have differences not only in manufacturing materials, but also by exterior characteristics. The installation of such structures does not represent difficulties.
Single swing door
Installation of a new single-door swing door involves the completion of work on finishing and painting of walls, so that they dry. If the repair in full swing and timelines do not allow it to postpone, then the canvas remove and cover the box with a film (preferably from polyethylene). Installation of hintage products are carried out after laying the coating on the floor (linoleum, laminate). For mounting, use tools - a square and plumb.
Preparatory work
The installation with your own hands begins with the determination of the floor level. To do this, insert the box to the mounting compartment, strengthening the wedges as in the photo. The level is measured by the radius of the web. If there is a nonconformity of the floor levels, the length of the rates will be adjusted to the size of such inconsistencies.
Double door
Next, it is necessary to inspect the horizontal location of the crossbar, and the racks are their vertical placement. The distance of the opening between the box and the wall should be symmetrically, as well as the distance between the racks. On the canvas with a special cutting tool "mint" the place where the canopies will be attached to the door.
Under the end of the racks should be placed a piece of cardboard or other similar material. Next in the opening anchor bolts fix the box. Bolts make it possible to adjust the racks along the vertical axis.
Completing box parts are placed according to the opening direction. Standards for apartments say that the lumen should not exceed 1 cm. When assembling the box, the upper edges of the racks are cut, passing the looped grooves. If the seal was placed in the box, then the range from the end of the loops to the gun is increased by 1.5 mm.
The slice at the edges of the crossbar should be made at an angle of 45 degrees. The side strut interval must be more width of the canvas by 0.5 cm. Box fastening is produced by screws. The door canvas insert into the box, while observing the enlighitives as on the photo shown, to make the markup for the loops.
Installation
The next step is to cut the excavation on the box and the end of the canvas in the thickness of the loop. It is possible to carry out special equipment: chisel either milling.

Next, disassemble the loops. We fix them with self-draws and wear the door on the loop, along the way choosing the required position. The box is exposed with the participation of wedges for mounting, observing the vertical and horizontal axis. By standards, the length of the wedges should exceed the depth of the box profile by 2 cm.
The gaps between the slopes and the box are filled with foam for mounting, we note that such gaps should be less than 5 mm. Foam for mounting requires professional circulation, it is important to choose such where the small filling factor (expansion) will save the block of deformation. The dried foam that fell to the surface will leave the trail, while the time of frosting the foam varies from 3 hours to days. The ability to choose a foam and handle it - the guarantee of the quality and aestheticness of the installed door.
The next step is the installation of platbands that are designed to mask the slots between the wall and the box. This will give the door a neat look. Preparation of the platband occurs in several stages:
- measured the length;
- dried up with a snack saw, with a knife, a stub at an angle of 45 degrees;
- Fixed on the finish-nail box in pre-drilled recesses 1.5 mm with a diameter. If the platband has a "beak", part of such a "beak" is cut up, insert into the groove and fasten on liquid nails.
In the case of a competent installation of a swing type door, its cloth in the open position is still, but the opening (closing) occurs without effort. And the fulfillment of the entire list of works can be viewed on our video.
Installation recommendations
Since the bivalve door consists of two canvases, it opens and closes extremely easy in any direction. The convenience of such structures and in the fact that when opening, you can go ahead, without departing a sideway, as it happens with a single door.
Bivalve doors are usually equipped with seals around the perimeter of the door jammer, which will provide the room with high-quality sound and thermal insulation, protects from third-party odors. Installation of such designs with your own hands is somewhat different from the usual one. The calculation of the magnitude of the horizontal crossbar occurs by measuring the width of two cloth plus 7mm for lumets.

The vertical side of the box is exhibited by level, wear a canvas, where the handle and the keyboard will be located. At the upper point, as in the photo, another side rack is fixed, to which the cloth with a latch-retainer is attached. The location of the vertical racks should allow the doors to be placed symmetrically and necessarily in a single plane. The transverse crossbar is fixed with only 1 screw. The mounting gap will necessarily close a similar latch latch.
Before mounting and fixing the double door, it should be carefully fired. When spraying a mounting foam, remember that during the cooling process, its volume may increase to 5 times.
Upon completion of the installation of a double-screen swing door, it should be checked for smoothness "walking" when opening and adjusting the bar.
Considering the features of the installation of hinting doors, their installation at home is an interesting, cognitive and not complex occupation.
It is important that the result is aesthetically pleased, regardless of the type of disintegration door and the way it is mounted. The installation must be competent, "from the soul", which will be the key to high quality and continuous operation of the swing door.
