Specialization: Master in the construction of plasterboard structures, finishing work and laying flooring. Installation of door and window blocks, finishing of facades, installation of electricians, plumbing and heating - for all types of work I can give detailed consultation.
If you have a gazebo in the site, the question of protecting space from adverse weather influences and wind requires the most close attention. In this review, I will talk about several options for solving the problem, they are very different in design, both in terms of cost, and protective characteristics. You need to decide what solution will be optimal: or sliding windows for a gazebo, or deaf glazing, or simpler and cheap soft PVC materials.
Overview of basic solutions
I will tell you about several options, and they will consider them from simple to more complex and expensive. You need to familiarize yourself with everyone and choose one that will satisfy all your requirements and will not be too overwhelming financial plan. Of course, the appearance will vary, therefore the aesthetic side of the question is also not worth missing.
Option number 1 - structures from old windows
Gazebo do it yourself from the window frames, which were previously used - the cheapest solution, as the main elements can be found almost free or for the minimum money. The most important thing is to find a sufficient number of frames.And if you succeeded, this section will tell you how to build a place for summer holidays from them.
If almost all other options assume the presence of a ready-made arbor, then in this case it can be quickly built from scratch.
The following materials will be needed for the construction:
| Materials | Purpose |
| Old windows | It is best that they are one size, it will significantly simplify the workflow and improve the appearance of the final result. Products must be quite durable, the rotten frames are better not to take, as long they will not serve you |
| Wooden barber | With it, it will be built a framework frame, as well as connecting all the elements among themselves. The minimum cross section is 50x50 or more - it is important that the elements can withstand high loads and ensure the reliability of the future structures |
| Concrete blocks | They will serve as the basis of the arbor, the timber will be located, which will exclude his contact with the Earth and will extend the service life of the entire structure. The number of elements is calculated individually in each case, the size of the structure is taken into account. |
| Board | It is needed for the facilities of the floor, and can also be used to sewing the lower part, although you can use window frames from the bottom to the top |
| Fastener | To connect all elements to a single integer, screws and perforated corners with rigidity ribs are used. These modern solutions are much more reliable than ordinary nails, in addition, their use accelerates the construction process. |
| Paint | Since the work will use old frames and a wooden raw bar, then it is necessary to paint all surfaces to protect against atmospheric influences |
Also do not do without a certain set of tool:
- Manual hacksaw for sawing bar and boards or power tools of the same purpose;
- Screwdriver with a set of bits under the used screws;
- Roulette and coal for marking. Level will help to expose the design smoothly.
As for the workflow, it consists of several stages:
- Initially, the place of construction is cleared, the playground is cleaned from the garbage and aligns. The base should be strong that subsequently individual parts of the design did not seem;
- Then the concrete blocks are laid out, usually they are located at the corners and in the middle of the walls. So that the elements stood in their place, they can be slightly deepened into the ground;
- The surface of the blocks is covered with rubberoid, after which it is assembled - its lower part and vertical angular racks, the position of which is fixed using the dissipasses. All items are sealed with reinforced perforated corners and screws, it is reliable and fast;
- Next, the window frames are put and fixed, they are fixed to the bruster from above and below, if the dimensions of the elements are different, then the resulting emptiness is closed with a board or other grain material - for example, plywood. The top is another bar, after which the design is enhanced with jumpers. If the gap remains between the frames, they are easiest to fill in the mounting foam and close the rails;
- As for the roof, it can be of a variety of designs, from the simplest single-sided version and slate to two-tight systems or semicircular roofs made of metal pipes and polycarbonate. The last option is more complicated in the implementation, but you will get the original and that it is importantly transmitting the light of the roof;
- Lastly, the design is painted in a certain color - the construction of multicolored parts is not very good. If your gazebo is fully assembled from the windows, then the bottom of the glazing can also be painted.
Such a structure will cost you a couple of thousand rubles, and even cheaper, because you can adjust the materials that are at hand. Naturally, the glazing of the arbor from the old window frames is better to make it up to its assembly, I advise you to remove all the glasses, then put them on silicone and secure new strokes.
The frames between themselves can be quickly and secured with perforated plates, this is especially convenient if you need to additionally strengthen the design, the bar from above and the bottom may not be enough.
Option number 2 - Soft windows
This type of product is differently called "flexible windows" and has the following features:
- The openings are closed with an elastic PVC material, which, if necessary, can be quickly removed to admire the beauty of nature;
- The light designability of the structure is 90%, which is quite enough to ensure high-quality natural lighting;
- The service life of the material is about 10 years, which is also important;
- The price of the material is 1500-1800 rubles per square meter, it is much cheaper than other ready-made options;
- You can order a door from such a material that closes with zipper and provides excellent protection against mosquitoes and other insects.
Here, naturally, you must have a finished gazebo. To close it with flexible windows, you need to perform a few simple actions:
- First you need to perform measurements of openings in order to determine the size of future elements. They must come to the surface of the arbor, because the fasteners will be placed there;
- Next, the soft windows of the PVC required configuration are ordered, all the nuances will be prompting you in the manufacturing company, you only need accurate dimensions from you;
- Finishing windows is very simple: special metal elements are fixed on the canvases, which are inserted into the eyeles and fixed with the strap. The eyelet is attached to the base with the help of self-tapping and dowels - it all depends on what your gazebo is made. Work can be made on their own, it is easy, and the savings will be about 15,000 rubles, so much on average the installers for installation are taken;
- When the eyes are standing in their places, you can fix flexible windows, everything is very simple and very fast.
If you cannot decide how to close the openings in the gazebo, this option can be an ideal solution due to simplicity and practicality.
Option number 3 - Polycarbonate windows
This lightweight and inexpensive material appeared relatively recently, but already gained great popularity both in roofing works and when closing the openings in gazebos, this is due to several factors:
- The material is low weight, which simplifies work with it;
- The cost of the square meter is about 250 rubles, which makes polycarbonate affordable for the widest range of buyers;
- The range of colors is quite wide;
- The design looks very well and serves about 15 years.
As for the features of the use of this material, they are as follows:
- To assemble a reliable and attractive design, a special aluminum profile is used, it is possible to quickly build a durable and light frame in which polycarbonate is inserted. The profile is ordered in the route meters and is calculated individually in each case;
- If you are squealing completely, the material can be mounted directly to the frame using special self-tapping screws with rubber washers. In this case, the ends of the polycarbonate must necessarily close the end layers, which are glued to silicone, it prevents the mud deposition inside the voids;
- You can make sliding windows from polycarbonate for the gazebo, in this case the frames are put on the guides for which they will move in one or two sides. Many design options: from a simple plastic profile to roller systems, choose what is more convenient for you;
- The flexibility of polycarbon makes it the only option for semicircular arbors, because you can independently attach it to complex surfaces. So you can make a gazebo in the form of the dome.
The monolithic polycarbonate can also be used, which resembles glass, but in contrast to it flexible. It is better to use options with a thickness of 3-4 mm, a sheet of such a 2x3 meter size will cost from 6500 to 8500 rubles, as you can see, this type of product is much more expensive than budget cellular polycarbonate.
Option number 4 - Aluminum sliding frames
Such a type of structures as sliding aluminum frames is widely used in balconies, but in conversations they can be used with great success, because the design is easy to use, has a small weight, it looks very good and perfectly opposed to adverse atmospheric influences. And from aluminum you can make both windows and doors, which will allow the gaze to be ease and simplicity.
With regard to the implementation of the project, I will consider it in general:
- First of all, it is necessary to measure the openings, it is better that specialists have completed this work, as any errors will lead to the fact that they will have to order a new design;
- When ordering it is better to choose options on the rollers, they work much easier and much more reliably simple frames on the guides. It is better to familiarize yourself with the reviews of people about a particular company to choose the best manufacturer in your region;
- It is better to charge work on installing specialists, since any errors in the process lead to the design of the structure, and it will work incorrectly or the sash will not move at all. This is associated with additional costs, but for the sake of the best result it is better to spend a little more.
Option number 5 - PVC windows
I will say right away - this is the most expensive solution, but if you want to use the gazebo and in the cold period of the year, then this type of glazing is best suited. The thermal insulation characteristics of plastic double-glazed windows are much higher than any of the above options, so they should be placed on capital designs so that it is not that windows are warmer walls.
To glaze with plastic windows design, you need to use a simple algorithm:
- First of all, measurements are held, if you do, you remember that on each side there should be a clearance of 2-3 centimeters, this will allow you to clearly set the position of the windows and insulate the lumen by the mounting foam;
- Then you need to order the windows themselves, I advise you to carefully choose the manufacturer, as there are a lot of options and not all of them have high quality. Give preference to brands with a good reputation, they are quite a few, and different options are presented in each region. Quality products will cost you from 4000 per square meter and above, cheap options are better not to consider;
- You can completely build a gazebo from plastic windows, more precisely from the PVC profile. This is not the cheapest solution, but its implementation is very simple: you will make the design of the desired size and shape and the only thing that you have to build yourself, this is the roof, the easiest way to make it from the tree.
If you decide to build a plastic gazebo, then the lower part of the design I advise you to close non-glass packages, but the deaf elements, they are much more reliable and will withstand strong blows without any problems.
Output
You must decide which goal should be done by windows if in the summer you need an open design, then the flexible windows for the gazebo will become the best solution, and if you need high-quality insulation, then plastic windows will fit the best. The video in this article will help to understand separate nuances even better, and if you want to clarify any questions, then ask them in the comments under the review.
For the economic dachnik, this construction is in its significance inferior only to a residential house. In the gazebo, you can comfortably post guests, and if you can retire and relax after work on the site.
Decorating the landscape, this building becomes the center of attraction for the whole family. In the summer, children play it, and the hostess prepare their culinary masterpieces. In the winter, the compact closed gazebo turns into a warm corner for picnics, eliminating the owners from the need to make a rapid house.
Everyone who plans to acquire such a construction, we will help you choose the best option. Having considered popular designs, we will give practical recommendations for the independent construction of the "all-season" arbor. We hope our article will help you confidently implement your personal project.
Constructions of closed arbors
There are two basic construction options: cold and warm. A cold builder protects against wind and rain, but in winter and late autumn it will be not too comfortable in it.
Cold construction with a large glazing area - Solution for the summer season
Winter gazebo is the same residential building, but smaller sizes. Here the walls and roof are insulated here, sometimes they make a warm floor, and the window openings are closed with double-glazed windows. The mandatory element of such a structure is a lightweight wood stove or fireplace.
Take care of the insulation of the arbor, you will get a lot of pleasure, resting in it in winter
Deciding with the design option (Cold or Warm) Consider the materials used for construction:
- wood;
- brick;
- blocks (gas-foam concrete, arbolite)
- metal.
The wooden frame of the carcass can be made from a bar or logs. The timber building is erected by the same principle as the log cabin. The crowns are tousingly binding to the corners, forming the walls and the base for the roof.
The wints of the walls and bars from the bar make the construction of aesthetic and cozy
Regarding the design it should be said that the square in terms of the construction loses polygonal. At the same time harder in the assembly. Therefore, it is quite rarely chosen for self-construction.
The hexagonal grill house looks harmonious and balanced
The gazebo of rounded logs is solid and beautiful. Excellent energy saving and durability should be added to the list of advantages.
Brusade design you can give elegance and ease by increasing the glazing area. If we are talking about year-round operation, then it is necessary to provide in estimated costs the installation of two-chamber glass windows.
Metal is most often used for the manufacture of cold gazebo frames. Its insulation delivers a lot of trouble, so for the winter version the owners usually choose a tree or brick.
Elegant construction based on metal frame - Solution for the summer season
Capital construction should be from stone. So reason the practical owners. Building the estate, they buy a facing brick so that it is enough for a residential house and on a gazebo. Buildings from one material are harmoniously combined with each other.
Brick design - classic "Arriad genre"
From aerated concrete and arbolite blocks are building not only housing, but also winter arbors. This material does not need additional insulation. It is well holding plaster, it is easily faced with a natural stone and is trimmed by a block chamber.
Walls made of aerated concrete
Next, there are combinations of several materials. Some owners close the metal frame with cement-chipstones. Others are cured with metal polycarbonate. Someone likes a wooden base, decorated with plastic siding or blockolar.
Facing a block shaping is available at a price and looks no worse than a natural cut.
Foundations
Raced in our review a little forward, back to the basis of the construction - the foundation. For a lightweight design to which all kinds of arbors belong, except for bricks, the best solution will be the pile or bonded base. It is quickly erected and economically according to the consumption of materials.
Nine screw piles confidently withstand the burden of construction
The wooden frame on which the frame is collecting when using a pile foundation, rises above the ground at a height of 20 to 50 cm. This guarantees good ventilation - the main condition of the durability of wood.
A columnar foundation will perfectly cope with the task of transferring the weight of the structure to the ground. All that is required from the owner is to dig up around the perimeter of the future gazebos somewhat shallow pit (40-60 cm). After that, they put formwork and reinforcement in them, poured concrete or make laying of brick columns (blocks).
Lovers of non-traditional solutions put arbors on automotive tires, laying them right on the ground and pouring concrete. Such a base without problems withstands the weight of light construction. However, its appearance is not decorating.
Auto strokes as a formwork for the foundation - "cheap and angry"
Brick buildings should be erected on a tape base from concrete. Under it, there is a trench with a depth of 50-70 cm and 10 cm wide more wall thickness. In the base (overhead part) of the concrete tape, it is necessary to provide production - holes for floor ventilation.
On the wet and weak soil under the brick walls you need to bring a slab foundation. In addition to good bearing ability, it makes it possible to make a warm floor with minimal cost - the option is very useful for the winter building.
Roof
The design of the roof of a warm arbor depends on the material of the frame and walls.
If you chose the metal, then the roof is found from the steel profile. For wooden walls, the best option - rafters from a bar. For brick buildings, it is equally well suited both metal and wood.
The rafter system of the four-tie (holm) roof from a tree, covered with OSB sheets. Such a type of roof significantly improves the appearance of the structure.
The view of the roofing coating to a lesser extent depends on the material of the roof frame. For metal tile and polycarbonate, a metal, and a wooden foundation can be used. The soft tile is put on the OSB plate or on the fane. Ontulin and polymerpess tile are easier to mount to wooden bars than to the steel profile.
The roof of soft tiles. Inner side, if necessary, insulate and laid.
Windows and doors: how to close the openings?
Planning construction, always have to compromise between energy saving and window size. In the winter building should be warm and comfortable. This is an axiom. And yet visibility - the main dignity of the arbor does not want to sacrifice fuel economy.
The only reasonable way out of the situation is sealed windows. You should not save on them. In a cold building, it is possible to limit the installation of double glazing with single glazing. For warm gazebos, two-chamber can be ordered. Despite its small sizes, in winter, heat loss through the windows is very impressive.
Another important point associated with the microclimate is ventilation. Tightness - "stick about two ends." Protecting itself from drafts, we risk to turn your place of rest in the greenhouse. Therefore, you need to order double-glazed windows, in the design of which ventilating valves are provided or the possibility of rotation of the microweling flaps.
Answering the question than to close the openings in the gazebo Consider another interesting option - soft windows. They are awnings from the thick frost-resistant film. They can close not only windows, but also all the outer walls.
Soft windows - a good way to protect an open gazebo from bad weather
By heat, the film is significantly inferior to even a single-chamber glass. At the same time, with its main task - she copes excellent protection and wind.
If you judge the average price, then the purchase and installation of 1m2 soft windows are 4-5 times cheaper than plastic with glazing (1500 versus 7,500 rubles).
An interesting solution is transparent rolling shutters from polycarbonate. These designs will not call cheap. However, due to the possibility of remote control with the help of the console, they are in demand among the owners of the estates.
Transparent sink roller shutters - pressed the button and the room is closed from bad weather
He who is used to do everything with her own hands, chooses protective screens from wooden frames for windows. Fixing them on the loop to the top of the opening, they get a simple and reliable design.
Rotary wooden frames - an inexpensive way to make an open arbor all-weather
For the same purposes, a transparent sheet polycarbonate can be used. It is fixed in wooden or metal framework and insert them into a guide profile. So the original sliding windows are obtained. With their help, you can adjust the degree of ventilation, closing the room from strong wind and rain.
Sliding frames with filling out of transparent polycarbonate
Independent construction
As an example, consider the installation steps of a warm gazebo on the foundation from the screw piles.
Step one - Laying the support bar to which the frame of the frame will be mounted using steel perforated plates (corners). The bars are joined at the corners of the "hardwood" method. This means that their ends are cut into half the thickness after which they impose one on the other and fasten with self-draws.
Step two - Installing racks. This operation requires the use of the level to control verticality.
Step Third- Installation of the upper strapping bar fixing the rack. It is attached to them through steel plates with screw holes.
While the design does not gain enough rigidity due to the installation of wall panels, the racks on the corners must be fixed using the dissipasses.
Step fourth - Installation of beams overlap over the top belt of the frame. They will be attached to the rafter farms.
They are most convenient to collect on Earth on the finished pattern. To increase the rigidity, the rafter legs are associated with a horizontal tightening board.
Pitch fifth - Installation of extreme end farms. They are fixed with pins to the bars of overlap and nourish a long board. It performs the task of the guide. It is exhibited and fastened with ordinary rafting structures.
Step Six - Printing crates from a cross section of 25x100 mm. Simultaneously with this work in a gazebo of a closed type, you can keep a masonry of a brick mangaal.
Step seventh. If a bitumen tile is selected for the roof, then on the crate you will have to put the OSB slab. It is best suited as a base for a soft roof and significantly increases the rigidity of the rafter design.
Step eighth. Soft tile pads are fastened to wood-shaped stoves with bitumen glue. She plays the role of additional protection against heavy rain with the wind.
Step ninth. The frame from the inside is trimmed with a slab OSB and attach a strapping perile bar. Brucks of rigidity are cut between the racks. After that, the insulation is laid in the resulting space and sew it outside with plates.
Step tenth. In our example, a wooden frame was installed on a foundation without lag for wooden flooring. Instead of it, paving slabs will be laid on the compacted layer of dry sand.
Before the start of this work, the support bar needs to be anti-impregnated. Sealing the sand with vibrotemobovka, you can start the installation of tiles.
Anyone who wants to make a warm electric floor must prepare an extruded polystyrene foam and put it on a compacted sand. After this operation, you can pour an alignment tie from the cement mortar. By giving him a week for a durability, you can lay pavement tile on glue.
The final operation is to install in the openings of double-glazed windows and entrance doors.
Look at how to make pergola from old doors. Of these, you can make the gazebo, washbasin, a barn for instruments, and it turns out a greenhouse from the windows.
The content of the article:
The new country season began. Lovers to work and relax in the fresh air have frightened in their phase in the winter, looking for new ideas for inspiration, with pleasure embody them. In order for all the ideas to have enough funds, use objects as a material. With the help of old doors, you can make pergola, shed for inventory, toilet, gazebo, washbasin.
How to make a pergola with your own hands?
If you do not know what kind of design it is, then read it right now. The word "pergola" occurred from the Latin and Italian word and means "building", "canopy". It is created for beauty, in order for curly plants to be freely placed on this design, protect people from the scorching sun when they pass along this terrace.
The design represents the arches section, which are connected into a single conversation with transverse bars. Pergolas can be mounted for buildings, they will decorate the open terraces. Sometimes they attach them to gazes or condo gazebo-pergolas.
If you have a lot of material, then you can make a big design. If you changed balcony, interior doors, did not throw old, then let them decorate the cottage.
Such pergola in landscape design looks wonderful to make it, you will be needed:
- two doors;
- white paint;
- primer;
- sandpaper;
- brush;
- boards;
- self-tapping screw;
- screwdriver;
- rubble.
To remove the old paint with the doors, use a special solution to remove such a coating. You can put on the surface of the newspaper, stroke the iron, after which the layer is removed with a spatula.
Skarite prepared surface, if it is not flat, first walk on it with a putty on wood. Once dried, make the surface smoother using sandpaper, then boot the web, cover 2-3 layers of paint.
Connect these prepared billets by vertical crossbars. If you have a jigsik, then place them in the same way as in the photo, if not, simply disconnect the specified size. Make two recesses in these crossbars on each side, put them on the door, fasten with screws on the side.
In order for the design to be more durable, connect the parts at the top of the hoodies, off at an angle of 45 degrees. Their and horizontal rafters must also be painted. Such pergola is installed on the rubble, if you want to place it near the veranda, then attach it to the wooden floor.
Corner brackets can be used as fasteners. If you do not want to mess around with the preparation of the door and painting, you can, on the contrary, artificially form it.
If you have from the construction of the roof elements, then connect the doors with them. Below can be fixed pergola on a wooden pallet with a corner. Then she will not touch the earth, and wooden parts will not rot.
If you want not only to admire such a building, but also to be able to sit there and relax, then take:
- 4 door canvases;
- five curly bracket;
- self-tapping screw;
- fastening metal corners;
- white paint and brush.
By the way, if you like the openwork design, I do not want to mess around with painting, see how to make pergola using carved pillars and balusters.
Each of the two pairs of carved pillars need to be connected to railings and balasits at the top and bottom. A small bartal roof is made from above, which combines the right and left wall pergola. Decorate her carved elements.
You can plant outside the same and second wall curly plants or attach boxes, place flowers in them. The inner space can be used to make a small shop here. For this, browns or angular brackets are attached to 1 and 2 walls.
There are other ideas of using old doors.
How to make a washbasin for giving from old doors?
To make such, take:
- a door;
- bars;
- sonsoration;
- fasteners;
- countertop;
- hooks;
- two curly brackets.
- Two bars will become the front legs of the washbasin. Choose from four boards the base of the table. In the tabletop, you need to cut the recess on the shape of the sink, put it here, to put the container from the bottom, which it will be possible to periodically pour. You can install a flexible hose under the sink, output it into a drain system or a ditch so that water flows there.
- Four boards are fixed on the lower legs, four more four, which will become the bottom table. At the top, attach the hooks to hang here towels, small garden tools.
- Even above the 2 openwork corners are attached. They are recorded a shelf on which flower pots are placed.
The old door in the next photo also easily turned into a country washbasin.
If you don't want to cut a hole in the tabletop, put a washbasin, then make a convenient table with shelves from the doorway.
For such a conveniently engaged in small garden matters: to peer seedlings, plant flowers in pots. You can attach hooks to the door, rave a small garden inventory on them to be at hand.
It is not difficult to make from the old washbasin and flowerhouse. Attaching it to the door, pour the land here, plant the plants.
This door does not even need to be painted, just put to the wall, but it is possible to make a loop at the top, drive a nail into the wall or attach a self-tapping screws, put a loop on them.
If you also have an old window that is a pity to throw away, you can turn it into one of the sides of the table or washbasin.
Construction of a gazebo of doors and wood
To create such a place of rest, you will need:
- five doors;
- floorboards;
- hinges for doors;
- metal corners;
- self-tapping screw;
- a small sheet of professional flooring;
- 4 bars;
- rubble.
- Cross the platform for the future structure, pour rubbank here, from 4 bars, make the basis for the floor. Top to type the board.
- Connect two doors to become the back wall. With the help of metal corners and screws, attach to it at an angle of 90 degrees two more canvas. These doors will become sidewalls.
- Data canvas with glasses, and for the top it is necessary to use the door without glass. You need to put it under a small angle, so that the water flows and the snow has come down. To do this, or use side doors more heights than those that have become the back wall, or attach to these side elements of the bars, sipped at an angle.
- Top to fix the sheet of professional flooring so that it is from all sides a little more than the gazebo. You can use another roofing material. At the bottom of the door can be attached to the floor, also using corners.
The following structure is also created on the basis of the door. Rear is installed 3 canvases and from one and the second side one by one. Since this design is a bit more than the previous one, it is necessary to attach the boards on the ceiling, but you can fix the remaining doors in cross, using them as the basis of the roof.
To give stiffness to the structure at the corners, the timing is made by a cross section of 100 or 150 mm, the design must be pre-fastened at the bottom of the floor fixation elements, and from above? Roof details. In such a gazebo without doors, it is pleasant to sit in the heat, here you can hide from the rain, as the roof will not give the roof.
Such a structure will be attached to both adults and children.
By the way, the guys can advise the following construction. Of course, the doors need to be pre-combined with each other or securely fix them near the fence.
They nourish various shelves, hooks where children can hang and put their toys, sacraba items. And adults can fasten drawers on such designs to decorate the plot. You can fix the stylist board, write on it a petty messages to each other.
Even a lonely door, painted in white, will become an excellent design element of the cottage, if you attach a box to it, put flowering plants into it.
Even if you have only the foundation of the canvas, there are no glasses and plywood partitions on it, such a door will still serve. At the bottom, the box is fixed on it, and the caspets hang on the hook.
Such vertical landscaping is perfect for the arbor, as you can place flowers on the reverse side of this facility. It is nice to sit in such a building in the fresh air, admiring the motley paints of plants.
But back to our topic to see what another congestion can be.
Four canvases will become the sidewalls and the rear wall, and the fifth will turn into a roof of a light structure. As you can see, the doors can not be painted to give this corner of the giving an ease of staining.
It seems that the next structure is also located on this site many 10th anniversary.
For its back wall uses door canvases, and old windows will fit for side. The unpacked gray board is stuffed as the elements of the roof, while the first must be knit down at the bottom of the skate, on top to gradually attach the following so that each above the location came to the previous one for 1-2 cm. Then the rain will not penetrate inside.
Also from the door you can make a small barn to storing tools. For him you will need:
- four doors;
- boards;
- bars;
- roofing material;
- fastening tools.
Top to quit four bar, fasten the rafters on them, climb the boards, secure the roofing sheet.
You will get a gazebo-pergola if you make this design.
Doors can be used as side walls, inside there is a shop on which the mattress is placed to be able to sit on soft or lie down. Curly plants are planted behind the side walls. Such a corner of giving looks amazing.
The next gazebo pergola is made in white-pink tones. For her, two doors are suitable without glasses. If at the bottom they have plywood, leave it if not, you will have a fortune. At the top of the door, the rails arrived at an angle of 45 degrees perpendicular to each other.
The bartal roof is made of rafters, the tops are stuffed from above. Inside the layer is fixed. All this charm is covered with pink and white paint. It will remain fastening the exterior boxes with flowers, put soft pillows on the bench, hang two tulle curtains at the entrance.
From glass doors you can make a small garden greenhouse, see how it looks amazing.
From old windows will be a wonderful reliable greenhouse. It is better to highlight this question more.
How to make a greenhouse yourself from the windows?
For her, the secondary material remained after repair. If you have glazed doors, take them. If there are no such, you can use the door box when attaching inside the glass. For the next mini-greenhouses, windows are perfect.
Before making a greenhouse itself, see if you have available:
- cement blocks or bricks;
- bars;
- sand;
- self-tapping screw;
- windows in sufficient quantity.
The level of horizontal design during the construction must be checked using a level if necessary to make adjustments.
- First of all, you need to level the platform where you will build. On the perimeter, remove the turf to a small height, pour sand here. Top to install blocks or bricks, it is better to connect them to cement mortar.
- When it dries, put on top around the perimeter of the rail, fastening them with corners and self-drawing.
- Now bars are attached vertically on this wooden base, the distance between two adjacent should be equal to the width of the window. At the next stage, you will need to insert them here and fix the side by screws.
- Now put horizontal brows at the top, also connect them to each other. A small side wall on one side is not yet filled, because there will be an entrance.
- Follow on the upper horizontal bars, where you need to make small removals for rafters, make them. Secure the roof base from above. To do this, you can also use glass frames or durable cellophane. If you do not want to shoot it for the winter, then it is better to fix a transparent polycarbonate here. From it and from the frames you make the doors.
In conclusion, look at the subtleties of the building of the greenhouse from window frames. It can come in handy dachensons.

Polycarbonate is positioned as a building material, which is used relatively recently. Despite this, he is in great demand in the market and this popularity constantly tends to increase. In most cases, polycarbonate is used for the construction of arbors, terraces, greenhouses and other buildings. In addition, such material also applies when building individual building elements.
We are talking about the doors or windows. And if earlier the doors made of polycarbonate were relevant exclusively for small street buildings, today this material is used to mount the doors of residential premises.
Features of the creation of doors from polycarbonate
The classification of polycarbonate doors is carried out on various features. By the installation method, they can be sliding or mounted. According to a certain constructive characteristics, polycarbonate doors can be framework or frameless. Depending on its initial purpose, they are divided into entrance and intercomed.
When creating doors, certain operational features of polycarbonate should be taken into account. Such material is able to serve as long as possible, but only if some rules are followed. The permission of the installation of doors will include cutting procedures, drilling and attaching polycarbonate to other materials.
1. Cutting polycarbonate sheets
When cutting the body of the polycarbonate door, it may be necessary to use a disk saw. In addition, you can resort to the use of other cutting equipment or a conventional building knife. At the same time, sawdust, which were formed during the cutting process, can be easily removed by the jet of compressed air. It is very important at the end of this stage to close the ends of the adhesive tape. This will help avoid dust.
2. Drilling polycarbonate
You can drill this variation with a standard metal drill. It should be checked for it to be sufficiently sharp. Drilling is carried out between ribbon ribs. The realized holes must be removed from the edge of the sheet of at least 40 mm.
3. Fastening polycarbonate
Polycarbonate point mounting is carried out by using simple self-tapping and special thermoshab. The latter consist of a plastic washer with a leg, a sealing washer and a snatching lid.
The use of thermoshab makes it possible to ensure reliable and hermetic mount, and also contributes to the elimination of cold bridges, which are formed when using self-tapping screws.
4. Sealing ends
When cutting polycarbonate should not forget about the need for high-quality sealing of ends. To solve this issue, it is advisable to resort to the use of aluminum self-adhesive tape or apply a special perforated tape. It will be able to prevent the formation of dust, as well as provide high-quality condensate stock.
Important! When creating outer doors made of polycarbonate, it is forbidden to install the design without a thermal deformation. Failure to follow such conditions may entail a damage of the material and even to its discontinuity during the cold season.

What tools and materials may be needed?
At the preliminary stage of installation work, it is recommended to prepare the necessary set of tools and additional materials that may be needed in the resolution of this issue. Such a set will be formed depending on the features of the work.
In most cases, it will look like this:
- electric drill with sweepers;
- self-tapping screw;
- thermoshaba;
- polycarbonate sheets;
- metal corners for tightening the frame;
- measuring devices (roulette, construction level, square);
- bar;
- sheds.
Sheds are required for mounting to the door frame. They will help create the most sustainable and reliable design. The polycarbonate sheet is selected depending on the size of the doorway. In addition, you can additionally take care of the installation of the partition.
Subject to the installation of frameless variation, the door can be limited to the use of canopies and polycarbonate sheets. The door frame is cut and attached through the use of screws.
Polycarbonate doors technology
Frameless
The technology of manufacturing a frameless door from polycarbonate is quite simple. This variation of the product is characterized by a richer appearance.
The whole essence of the work comes down to preparing the door body of the required size in accordance with the dimensions of the doorway. To obtain the most accurate dimensions, an old door design can be used, simply by finding its contour.
Frame
Subject to the existence of a frame, the process of manufacturing the door can be somewhat complicated. This is due to the need to create additional structural elements. The sequence of action in this case will look like this:
- Conducting relevant measurements.
- Mounting frame.
- Painting canvas.
- Frame covering.
- Installing canopies.
- Installation of doors.
At the preparatory stage, all necessary measurements of the doorway should be carried out. for specified sizes. With its manufacture, it is recommended to ensure that the corners of the design are straight. This will avoid distortion upon subsequent operation.
If wooden rails are used as the basis, it is advisable to simply pull the angles with metal corners.
Tip! The manufactured frame must be less than a 1-1.5 mm doorway. Due to this, the doors will be tightly closed with further operation.
Before covering the frame, you can resort to staining of the surface or cover it with varnish. Under the condition of painting the door must first stall well.
Mounting doors from polycarbonate is much easier than the installation of other versions of the door. This is due to the minimal weight indicators of the finished design.
