The degree of complexity of work on replacing the door depends on the range of renovation.The easiest way to hang a new wing, leaving the old frame.The additional renewal of this element is slightly more laborious.Most often, however, such cosmetics are not enough and you need to replace both the door and door frame, which is more troublesome.If we want to make more corrections - e.g..Hide the door in the wall or put it in a completely different place - we must prepare for a serious renovation.

We replace the interior door - we leave the frame

The first case, i.e. suspension of a new wing on an old frame, basically does not require commentary.The works are limited to removing old doors and new hinges assumptions.Of course, it is necessary to determine in advance whether the frame has normalized dimensions and typical hinged spacing, as well as whether the handle in the new wing is at the same height as in the old.

This solution is not used too often, because after years of use, not only the wing, but also the frame looks not very attractive.However, they can be considered when the door has been damaged or we want to change their functionality, e.g..turn full into glazed, and at the same time we want to reduce costs.

Another proposal for investors with a limited budget or those who simply do not feel like a greater renovation is to attach a special masking overlay on a not very aesthetically looking for the door frame..It is mounted with the help of mounting foam - after unscrewing or cutting off old hinges.When choosing this element, of course, you need to match it in color to the wing.

Attention!The overlays reduce the width of the passage by OK.3 cm, and also extend the door plane by OK.5 cm from the face of the wall on the hinges side.

After selecting the door, we can proceed to their assembly.It takes place in two stages - in the first you need to dismantle the frame, in the second place a new frame and door leaf.

We replace the interior doors - disassembly of the frame

The easiest way to remove the frame is made of wood.The works are limited to cutting the side and upper profiles with a saw, followed by detachment of the other parts.Definitely more of the West is with the removal of the metal frame, which is concreted in the wall.

The first solution that often comes to mind, i.e. forging it, is not recommended.It is not enough that it is labor intensive, it can also result in damage to the wall.A better solution is to cut the frame with an angle grinder.During the work, you need to accurately measure the width of the new hole - it should be adapted to the external dimension of the new frame, including a 1-1.5 cm wide mounting gap on each side.

After removing the frame, the jackets should be leveled, e.g..using gypsum glue.If the hole needs to be reduced, this can be done with the help of stripes cut from plasterboard and glued even in several layers using gypsum glue.

Popular light panel models are usually embedded only for mounting foam.The work begins with checking the dimensions of the frame and possible shortening of the frame to match it to the door opening.The frame should be moved in a vertical position, noting that its lower ends do not spread.After inserting the frame in the hole, it must be blocked with wooden wedges.

The next step is to insert three adjustable struts - at OK heights.180, 110 and 30 cm - and checking with a long level if the sides of the frame are even.If the frame holds the vertical and level, we start foaming, remembering that the low -pressure mounting foam thoroughly fill the gap between the frame and the wall.After hardening the foam, we cut off the excess with a sharp knife.

The next step is to stick the masking slats with the glue.Time to suspend the wing and possible adjustment of the hinges.Finally, we attach the door handle and signs, and fill the gaps between the band and the wall with acrylic mass.

Attention!In the case of mounting heavier wings, e.g..made of solid wood, in addition to foam.This requires drilling holes in the frame (their number is determined by the manufacturer), attach a sufficiently long dowels and covering them with decorative end caps.

We replace the interior door - new arrangement

DOOR replacement is a good opportunity to rearrange the interior.One of the more common changes is to replace the usual sliding doors.The most popular solution is to attach one or two wings to the wall of the guide to the wall.Such models take up less space than open, which is why they will work very well in small rooms or in narrow corridors.Unfortunately, in this variant near the door it is impossible to set any furniture.

Therefore, it is worth considering installing sliding doors hiding in the wall.They are sold complete with a cassette, the embedding of which requires forging a hole in the partition.It is quite labor -intensive, but as a result we will get a very convenient, modern and effective -looking construction.

When modernizing the rooms.In this case, the first step should be to check whether the partition in which we plan the door is load -bearing or partition.Making holes in the load -bearing wall requires the expertise of the constructor.In the event of a positive decision, it will determine the method of execution and cross -section of the lintel.A steel or reinforced concrete element is placed in a horizontal furrow, above the planned door opening.Only after placing a beam in it, you can start forging the door opening.

The method of making the door opening in the partition wall depends on what material the partition is erected.In the case of aerated concrete and light varieties of ceramic blocks, the hole can be cut with an angle grinder with a diamond disc.Brick wall - after initial crushing - the brick is undressed to the brick.

Attention!The width and height of the hole should be adapted to the dimensions of the frame, taking into account the layer of leveling plaster and the mounting gap.

To prevent the appearance of any cracks in the plaster around the door and deformation of the frame, a reinforced lintel should be created at the top of such a hole.Element with a thickness of OK.5 cm will be obtained by laying 2-3 reinforcing rods in diameter 8-10 mm and pouring them with concrete in formwork or by inserting a previously prepared reinforced concrete element.
