The arch before entering the open living room will be able to radically improve the appearance of the room, bring it an aristocratic, bright view.
But how exactly to make an arch in an ordinary living room in a multi -storey building? There are two possible options:
What is needed to install an arch without changing the integral design of the doorway
Most living rooms have a doorway in a load -bearing wall, which makes permission to obtain permission quite expensive and prolonged business.
But even without it you can do without selecting the door box under the arch correctly. The arch can be with and without doors, it all depends on the wishes of the owner of the apartment.
First you need to decide whether the doors are needed. If not, then the usual replacement of the box is carried out, a new one is put, which has special liner tabs, which create the appearance of the arch.
If you have chosen arched doors…
What is important – without doors, such an arch can be made independently, correctly calculating the distance of the arched semicircle, mounting special wooden tabs with the box. When choosing a door, you have to take a box and doors in the kit.
It will be difficult to pick up arched doors separately for the home -made arch T. To. The distance of a home -made arch and will certainly not be standard, and it will be difficult to achieve with a standard height (the doors will be noticeably performed).
When choosing a set of arched box+doors, the installation process is common, as in the installation of standard doors.
What is needed to install an arch with a change in the structure
In this case, it will be necessary to take permission from the housing commission and neighbors, to “round” the walls only after the work project and hiring the best professionals.
Even permits and certificates of state bodies do not guarantee that a change in the structure of the carrier wall will be performed perfectly – when working with the carrier wall, a crack can go throughout the house or form with neighbors, you will have to invest a lot of funds to eliminate the consequences.
But on the other hand, the expansion of the wall for acra will give the perfect result, you can install high beautiful doors or do without them;
– In this case, the entrance to the living room will look really like an entrance in a beautiful castle. It is better to use a box and doors to order for a redid entrance, for perfect entry into the overall interior.
