For example, if the width of the door leaf is 90 cm, then the arch will take at least 45 cm up from the edges of the design.
- The arched opening in the modern style is the optimal option for finishing the integral door opening. In such a constructive solution, the bending radius must exceed the width of the opening, and the angles can be decorated both with acute and rounded edges.
- Romance - this kind of arch has a direct arch in the middle part of the opening, which is spinning along the edges of the structure. Thus, it resembles a portal, only with more elegant, smooth faces.

- originality and the ability to experiment with different types of material;
- universality, since the stone is harmoniously combined, both with the opening door, and interior structures.
The principle of finishing such material is similar to the technology of laying ceramic tiles. The only difference is that the stone does not need to use a special adhesive composition, which is obtained from a dry mixture and water. For a stone decor you can use "liquid nails" or adhesive sealant, which can be purchased at any construction store.
Finishing the doorway door with artificial stone is produced in such a sequence of actions:
- Initially, it is necessary to prepare the surface. To do this, remove the remains of the old finishing coating, align the existing irregularities and recesses, as well as stick the cracks and wall defects.
- Then you can proceed to the surface treatment of the primer, which will increase the adhesion of glue and lining of the walls.
- Prepaid and grouled the decorative stones tiles so that the material is fully prepared for fixation.
- If some fragments do not correspond to the size of the opening, cut them and skill the edges using coarse sandpaper.
- Then apply glue on the wall. If you use the glue composition of "liquid nails", then it is applied directly to each stone tile.
- Apply the stone to the surface and press the hand tightly. Starting the work follows from the lower angle of the opening. If the door is the door, then you should retreat from the edge to such a width that the platband will later take.
- If the door canvas in the design is not provided, then in the angles of the slope, put the stone tiles as closely to each other as possible.
- Depending on the type of chosen decorative material, it is possible to leave or leave the gaps between the fragments, which are subsequently filled with the grout.
- At the end of the process, process the stone elements with a rigid brush to eliminate the surplus of the solution and dust.
