Laying linoleum near the door and threshold

Continuing the theme of working with linoleum look at a specific example of how to perform the trim around the door opening and on the doorstep. I recall that earlier already briefly told how bypass pipe and emphasized howtrim the linoleum near the wall.

starting points

Room and corridor are at different levels - of the order of 2 cm drop. Smew door without a threshold, is made of a conventional MDF. Since the vertical rack Lutkov rest on the floor, we had to decide how to cut fabric: repeating Lutkov profile or try to have it under the linoleum, and the excess cut already without special accuracy.

For trimming as before using a short knife blade old metal bracket (plate can) and adding to this set hacksaw with fine teeth, for example with a metal blade and chisel. The final stage is still useful and screwdriver.

Progress

Since the work is fine, he decided to clean and remove everything that hinders. First, the door leaf is removed, cut protruding from the door of an extra piece of linoleum, but a little is still left, then to make more precise the segment. Also directed frames.

• Smew rested against the floor, but it is available to it a little sawed the bottom and make the gap linoleum, so I decided not to trim the canvas around Lutkov and cut 0.5 cm from the most Lutkov. I used for this purpose hacksaw, which is not guts MDF edges.
• When the trimming has been completed, he knocked the sawed-off piece of a chisel, cut the linoleum so that under Lutkov went down 2-3 cm and pushed it back into place.
• After that I went to the final urging linoleum upbeat on the edge threshold. Particularly complicated in this nothing, since the edge of planned shut decorative area with a width of 90 degrees of the vertical field is not more than 2 cm, which corresponds to the height difference.

• With mounting bracket a little tough, since the owner purchased the area without holes. It was necessary to cut it along the length hacksaw, drill hole 4 to 70 cm long metal drill diameter of 3 mm and even chamfer therein under the head of the screw, the so-called pot. To chamfer handy drill diameter of 10 mm.

At the end of the door back in place and nailed trim. It seems with all this! You can proceed to install the skirting board. About it in the next article.
