The width of the siding panel is 20-25 cm, and the additional elements - 2 and 3 meters.

Mounting of metal siding

As already noted above, you can independently lay the metal siding under a tree, the installation of this material is quite simple.

Initially, it is necessary to carry out some preparatory work: to clean the walls, to free them from paint, putty and other substances, to remove nails, fixing pipes and other elements. It is necessary to carefully inspect the walls, if they are damaged in the form of cracks and bumps, then you need to install a wooden or metal crate.

To install a wooden crate, you need a dry bar. If it is not dry enough, then metal metallurgy will later become a wave. To avoid this probability, it is preferable to use a metal crate, which should be installed in steps of 0.4-1 meters, which will allow for the construction of the house and the width of the insulation.

We put the heater in the cells of the crate, you can use any kind. We fix by means of a wire or dowels for fixing. Then it is necessary to fix the additional elements to the crate with the help of self-tapping screws with a pitch of 0.2-0.4 meters.

Now you can proceed directly to the installation, but you need to consider some rules:

• It is necessary to observe a gap of up to 1.5 mm between the panel and the screw to compensate for the deformation of the metal siding in the event of temperature changes;
• Between the panel and the additional element it is necessary to leave a gap of 6-8 mm to relieve tension;
• Installation of panels to start wiser from the corners of the house;
• Fastening of panels is carried out by means of self-tapping screws by hooking on top of the underlying siding panel to the underlying siding by means of locking connections;
• If the building is of a non-standard form, then for installation it may be necessary to cut the siding into parts, this must be done with a hacksaw for metal, otherwise there is a risk of damaging the protective layer of the panels;
• Panels are installed to the very top of the house;
• At the last stage, the finishing strips with the lock connections on the underside are mounted, the screws are attached to the top.

When laying each row, it is necessary to check the evenness of the construction level, because if there is an unevenness somewhere, it will grow with the laying of each new row, which will be much more difficult to fix.
