What are shutters
Shutters - it is fashionable, modern and elegant. Thanks to the innovation and improvement of models today, such structures can be monolithic and impregnable, as the defenders of private property, and can serve as a decorative blinds or curtains. The attractive appearance of shutters can decorate any interior.
Shutters are eight classes of proof - it all depends on the material from which made the design:
- P1-P2. Classic and plumbing shutters hardly will save from penetration, but they serve as an excellent means of protection from the wind, noise and dust. Basically this roller rolling profiles.
- P3-P5. If you need protection against penetration and vandalism, pay attention to the extruded or steel profiles - the gate and grilles are made of this material.
- P6-P8. This is the most reliable defense, since such roller shutters are most often armored and bulletproof.
In addition, roller shutters are mechanical and electrical. In turn, mechanical roller shutters are divided into inertial and gear - depending on the drive, which ensures the rotation of the canvas.
The roller shutters are installed on the doors and windows, on the gate and showcases, as partitions in the room instead of protective shirms, on inclined roofs and winter gardens, and also - as a protective awning on the trailers of the "Pickup" type vehicles.
If you need using a roller shutdown to cover a large opening, choose a profile of increased strength. In addition, we note that there is a specific roller shutter for inclined planes.
Installation of roller blinds is a difficult matter, since the process itself requires increased qualifications from those who will perform work. It is from how work performed and will depend on the durability of the structure and, which is important - its performance.
Installation of roller blinds: Instruction
If you decide to install rolling shutters with your own hands, carefully examine the installation instructions for ordinary rolling systems. Knowing the basics of this process and a little practice, you can independently carry out the installation of rollers on the windows or on the door.
The most important thing is to properly prepare the opening before starting to install profiles: it must be smooth, without cracks and influx.
Types of Montaja
- Installation built-in. Mounting roller shutoff is carried out inside the opening - directly the mount is performed to the end of the opening. This method has a basic advantage - the box where the profile is located, is hidden inside the opening, not speaking beyond its limits. But it is precisely this advantage and is a disadvantage, as it decreases the lighting of the opening (just at the height and width of the box).
- Installation of the invoice. Installation is carried out on the opening, and the attachments are performed on the facade, so the box is above the opening. Advantage: There is no reduction in the light opening, when the roller shutters are not visible from the room. Disadvantages - the box can actually act relative to the facade.
- Installation when the box inside. In this embodiment, roller shutters are attached to the end of the opening, but in such a way that the box turns out inside. Advantages: The appearance of the building does not deteriorate. As for the shortcomings, the roller shutters are far from the opening - just this place is ranked.
- Installation when the box is embedded. Installation is carried out directly in the opening, while the box will start in a niche created specifically for these purposes above the opening. Advantages: Due to the fact that the roller shutters fit tightly, the facade has an aesthetic appearance, as well as this type of installation significantly increases the protective function of the profile, since the rolling shutters are firmly mounted in the facade. As for the shortcomings - during installation it will be necessary to "squeeze" the facade and interior of the room.
- Installation built-in (internal). Installation is carried out exclusively indoors. Advantages: aesthetic appearance, high degree of sewn. Disadvantages: Unfortunately, the glass remains unprotected.
- Installation of the invoice (internal). Roller shutters need to be built into the opening, but so that the light space is preserved. Advantages: Increased reliability, attractive appearance. Disadvantages: unprotected double glazing.
How to choose fasteners
Depending on which type of installation will be used and from which the opening is made, various fasteners are applied. Installing the roller shutter on the door or windows is possible when using the following fasteners.
- Concrete, stone, brick.
- Hollow brick: anchors Steel depth of at least 65 mm.
- Metal: Screws self-tapping.
- Tree: Studs of coupling or screws.
Stages of work
The kit includes: one box, one rolling canvas, two tires for sliding and equipment.
Once you make sure that the opening is prepared, you need to start directly to the installation.
- Measure the opening where rolling shutters will be installed.
- Prepare lateral rails - check the places where fasteners will be.
- Drill in those places that you noted through holes.
- on one side of the rails to make one hole that will be used for the decorative knob knob.
- Insert the fasteners that will fix the side rails.
- Side rails fix in the box.
- Design to attach to the wall (OPERA).
- Do not forget to check all the work with a level.
- Where holes for fastenings are made, it is necessary to hold the mount.
- Block fix on the wall.
- In the event that roller shutters have automatic drives, you will need to make a hole in the wall, where the cable will be held. It is best to do it directly through the box - then the cable will not have "access" to the street.
- Connect the cable to the block that will control. It is basically fixed to the wall or to the base station - it will catch the signal from the control panel.
- If the roll is manual control, then it is necessary to pull the cable to the block and install the handle, securing it the cable.
- The bar to which the profile will be filled, it is necessary to wind up the package - it will save the web from damage and scratches.
- To wind the rolling of the rolls on the bar.
- At the end of the web to attach clamps.
- For roller shutters, located on the outside, a rigle is needed. It will be a good block. Thanks to the riglel, shutters will not be possible to raise.
- Now it is necessary to install a bar - it will hold the rolls tightly.
- If the roller shutters are located on the outside, you need to drill the head with a drill in the head bolts so that they cannot be unscrewed. Then you need to install plugs on them.
