Fence is an indispensable attribute of the country area. Each owner wants around the house stood strong, durable and beautiful fence. That is why fence, gate and gate from the professional flooring become increasingly popular. They have not only a neat, good view, but also very practical thanks to a long service life.

Professor - what is it?
The corrugated sheet is based on a corrugated metal sheet with an anti-corrosion coating. On each side, it lined with three more protective layers:
- passivational, creating a solid anti-corrosion surface;
- soil;
- the polymer coating, which is polyester, pouro, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl dentafluoride and acrylic.
The most commonly used polyester (PE), it has an average quality by service life, but has good plasticity, color resistance and a fairly low price. Matte material looks richer, in comparison with glossy coating, and costs more.
Pural (PUR) is considered the most resistant to mechanical exposure, and to corrosion - polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Proflists with this coating are considered the most expensive and usually used in elite country houses.
Professional flooring and wicket
Each material has its markings. For the fence, a wall professional flooring is used, which is indicated by the letter "C" or universal (NA) - it is used both for roof and walls and fences.
A digit that stands near the letter denotes the height of the wave (C10, C8, etc.). The next two numbers are the thickness and width of the professionalist, respectively. Dimensions are indicated in millimeters.
The best option for the construction of the wicket and the fence is made by braified stitching:
- C8 - has a large coating area and affordable cost. It does not differ in high strength, but it is perfect for the installation of temporary fence.
- C10 is the optimal option in the ratio of a large coating zone and rigidity.
- C20 - has the best properties for the construction of the fence and, accordingly, wickets. The stiffness of the material allows the fence to withstand wind loads.
- C21 - Suitable for mounting the fence from 2.5 m or more, as it has the greatest rigidity.
The most reliable and attractive will be wickets and fences for the cottage from the C20 and C21 professional flooring.
The main characteristics that should be paid to when choosing a material for wicket and fence:
- height of the corrugations;
- sheet thickness;
- type of coating;
- weight of the professionalist;
- coating color;
- material manufacturer.
Materials and tools
In addition to the professional flooring, the following building materials will be needed for the design of the wicket:
- square or rectangular steel pipe for 80x80 or 60x80 mm pillars with a wall thickness of 3-4 mm;
- profiled pipe 20x40 or 630x60 mm or metal corner from 2.5 to 5 mm for the manufacture of wicket frame;
- self-tapping screws with a straightener;
- round loops;
- metal primer;
- crushed stone of the middle fraction;
- cement;
- sand.
Instruments:
- screwdriver;
- bulgarian;
- lobzik;
- welding machine;
- hoven for metal;
- garden drill;
- scrap;
- solution tank;
- level;
- marking tools: marker, chalk and roulette.
Gate for the fence - manufacture and installation
Drawing
Setting the gate and gate, fences begins with the drawing.
Drawn gate circuit, which lists its parameters - height and width. The optimum size of the leaf 2x1 m. Sometimes make higher the gate, but it should be borne in mind that in this case the increased weight of the structure and, consequently, the load on the hinges and lock. As a result, they quickly wear out. To reduce the bearing load in such constructions provide separate upper portion with the bar.
Mounting supports
- The support tubes are cut off at the size indicated in the drawing, in view of their underground parts - 1-1.5 m, are stripped from the scale and are primed.
- Along the fence line is tensioned cord, the location of planned wells on the gate width plus 2 cm. They dig or selected using a garden drill to a depth of 1.2 m.
- Strictly according to the plumb line installed poles and backfilled with gravel that compacted scrap.
- Ready-mixed concrete, poured into the pit. Congeals the solution for 7-10 days.
Advice:
Bottom of the columns better be bridged in order to avoid fluctuations in the soil structure during the flood.
Making the frame
- Vertical and horizontal pipes are marked and cut at an angle of 45º. Their broad side must be perpendicular to the fence plane.
- Pipes are laid on a flat surface in the drawing construction and lightly grab in all corners.
- Vymeryat diagonally - they must be the same. If the dimension is correct, then the gap between the frame and the support will be 1 cm.
- Finally boil corners.
- Welded horizontal jumper. It is located at the gate handle. Usually this distance - 90 cm from the ground.
- Welded awnings.
- All seams are carefully are stripped and ready to frame coated with a primer.
installation of gates
- Ready frame is exposed on the solid foundation height, and canopies to grab pole.
- Checked the movement of the gate - if the canopies are not skewed, it is easy to open and close.
- Sheds are welded to a pole.
- On the frame is installed a lock or latch. For this purpose, any suitable structure for exterior doors. There are special locks for proftrub.
- The entire structure is painted over a layer of paint.
Advice:
When a warp gate corners frame bonded, welded additional stiffeners.
installation of profiled sheet
- Steel sheet is cut to the size of the frame. This is done usually by a grinder, but it leaves burrs and chips on the material. In applying handsaw metal cut edge is obtained evenly.
- After aligning the sheet, it is attached to the opposite corners into two screws.
- The gate is checked and if there are no distortions, then all other roofing screws are screwed - from 6 pcs. per square meter. Aluminum rivets are also used to fasten the sheet.
- Additional elements are installed: plates for lock, outdoor handle.
- Supports and frames are painted again.
The designs of the flaps from the corrugated floor are not limited to a simple rectangular form, but the installation of curly products is much more difficult. In this case it is easier to order and buy a gate for a fence in the finished form.
Often, a stone or brick is used in the reference column. In this case, the facing is laid out around the base - metal pipe.
It is welded in advance and are produced on the outer surface the bedding plates on which the loops are then attached.
