How to seal the doorway

Zatevaya renovated apartments, many are no longer satisfied with simply replacing wallpaper and updated paint. Striving to make your home more convenient and comfortable pushing tenants to partial or complete redevelopment of their apartment.

And as this renovation impossible to imagine without changing the internal layout of the room. One of the most common and at the same time simple types of redevelopment is to move the door. In connection with this problem eliminating unnecessary doorways. This work is easily done by hand.
Options for fixing unnecessary doorways are basically two. This tab is opening in the wall of brick or the erection of the former site of the door frame partitions. Each option has its advantages. So, for example, frame partitions, installed in just a few hours, but the brick wall - this is without doubt a fundamental building.
With any method of reconstruction work begins with the dismantling of the door. Initially unhinge the door leaf. Then carefully, trying not to hurt, torn frames. They must first pry a chisel, and then carefully separate the claw hammer. At least dismantle the door frame.
For the construction of the frame walls, you can use metal profiles for gypsum board or wooden bars. Required for covering plasterboard. In addition, to ensure adequate soundproofing will be needed soundproofing material.
Framework elements (bars or profiles) are fixed on the doorway wall with screws with dowels. Walls tend to have a considerable thickness, and therefore are likely to need the second frame. It is installed in the doorway on the opposite side of the wall. After that, on one side frame is sheathed with gypsum plasterboard. Then the space frame is filled with soundproofing mats (for example, on the basis of basalt wool). Then the other side of gypsum board sheathed frame. After mounting the gypsum boards must be carefully zashpatlevat gap between the baffle and the wall, as well as deepening of the cap screws. After drying putty its surface is polished and coated with a layer of primer. Finally disposes of the wall together with the wall.
Thus, the sliding frame is installed in just a few hours, and if necessary - as quickly and easily dismantled. In addition, low weight partitioning allows you to install it directly on the floor of the room. Do not want to disassemble floor coverings, in order to get to the concrete floor.
Unlike plasterboard walls, a brick wall would require a reliable base or foundation. Therefore, if you decide to lay the brick doorway, the floor covering will need to review that the future rested on the wall of concrete. For the implementation of waterproofing the first row of bricks laid on a strip of roofing material. To secure a new clutch was connected with the old wall, it is necessary in the doorway of the old masonry to make the sample by removing from each side on a few bricks. The correctness of masonry should always be monitored by the level and plumb. Position of individual bricks, if necessary, can correct mild impacts handle trowel. Finished brickwork finish to follow will be plastered. Plaster is applied, usually in two layers. To obtain an absolutely flat and smooth surface of the last layer shpatlyuetsya and polished.
