Instructions for covering the gate with a multi-purpose 1-layer wood-plastic bar and copper nail gun

When constructing a gate panel with copper nails, there are 1 main cases of 2-layer wood-plastic multi-purpose bar, including:

1. Horizontal gate cover, vertical bar installation
   
2. Vertical gate cover, horizontal bar installation

The 1-layer multi-purpose wood-plastic bar weighs 3kg/bar - 5,3kg/bar (±5%), so when covering the gate, it needs to be reinforced on a sturdy frame system with a distance between the bars. ≤25cm to ensure user safety.

In addition, the construction area must meet Width ≤6m and height ≤3mIf the area is larger, please switch to using 2-layer ASA-coated wood plastic panels. (OP113X16, OP140X12, 4S184X28, 5S169X14, 8S169X14) – This is a lightweight material used for wall cladding, ceiling cladding, and gate cladding with large areas.

Below is the weight table of 2 multi-purpose wood-plastic panel codes at Kosmos Vietnam:

Step 1: Prepare materials and tools for constructing the gate with a multi-purpose 1-layer wood-plastic bar and copper nail gun

Supplies

Below are 10 types of materials you need to prepare:

1. Skeleton bars (stainless steel, galvanized steel) size ≥25x25mm and thickness ≥12mm
2. Iron bar
3. 1-layer wood plastic multi-purpose bar (OP142, OP71)
4. Wooden bars (wood used for outdoor use) are the same size as bone bars.
5. Plate, L plate, L-shaped iron bracket
6. Fish tail stainless steel screw
7. Iron anchor
8. Swing hinge, gate handle
9. Copper nail
10. Kosmos multipurpose glue.

Tool

Here are 7 necessary tools for the process of installing gate cladding with 1-layer multi-purpose wood-plastic panels:

1. Angle grinder, drill, welder
2. Tape measure, angle ruler
3. Laser machine, nail gun.

Step 2: Install the gate border

Use 1cm thick iron bars and 4,5cm wide (OP142) or 4,7cm (OP71) (for 25x25mm 1,2mm thick frame bars). Use a welding machine to join the iron bars according to the size of the gate border.

Step 3: Install the gate frame

The gate frame installation process includes 2 stages:

Step 1: Weld stainless steel or galvanized steel bars to the center of the iron bar (gate border), distance between bars ≤25cm. All welds must be smoothed and painted with anti-rust paint.

Step 2: Paint black and fix wooden bars (wood types used for outdoor use) the same size as the stainless steel bars to the frame above with stainless steel screws.

Step 4: Build the skeleton into the gate

Before erecting the skeleton into the gate, it is necessary to install the pivot hinges into the bottom and top of the gate post.

Bottom of gate pillar

Fix the gusset plate to the floor with iron anchors and weld the swivel hinge to the gusset plate.

Top of gate post

Fix the L-shaped bracket on the gate pillar with iron plugs, continue to weld the L-shaped bracket to the bracket. Finally weld the swivel hinge to the bracket.

After completing the 2 upper and lower hinges. Continue, weld the skeleton into the position of the 2 hinges as shown below. The gate frame needs to leave a distance of 2-3cm from the column.

Step 5: Install the 1-layer wood-plastic multi-purpose bar onto the gate frame (front of the gate)

5 steps to install multi-purpose wood plastic panels on the frame:

1. Apply Kosmos multi-purpose glue to the frame and the wooden bar fixed on the frame.

Side skirting: Apply Kosmos multi-purpose glue to the frame

Vertical cladding: Apply Kosmos multi-purpose glue to the frame

2. Install the first multi-function bar

For horizontal cladding: Install the multi-purpose panel facing the ground horizontally (install the panel from bottom to top).

For vertical cladding: Install the multi-purpose panel vertically against the wall, from the inside out.

Install the first multi-purpose bar horizontally from bottom to top.

Install the first multi-purpose bar vertically against the wall.

3. Use a nail gun with copper nails to shoot into the multi-purpose bar to fix it to the frame at the position of the wooden bars.

Horizontal cladding: Shoot copper nails into the multi-purpose bar at the position of the wooden bars.

Vertical cladding: Shoot copper nails into the multi-purpose bar at the position of the wooden bars.

4. Repeat steps 1, 2, 3 until all the wood-plastic multi-purpose bars are installed on the frame (The gap between the multi-purpose bars is chosen by the construction worker).

Cross bar: Apply Kosmos multi-purpose glue to the cross bar

Vertical cladding: Apply Kosmos multi-purpose glue to the crossbar

Horizontal cover: Fix the multi-purpose bar with copper studs

Vertical cover: Fix the multi-purpose bar with copper studs

Horizontal: Repeat steps 1, 2, 3 until the end of the gate

Vertical Cover: Repeat steps 1, 2, 3 to the end of the gate

5. Install the handle on the gate, depending on the type of handle, choose the appropriate construction method.

Horizontal: Install the handle on the gate

Vertical Panel: Install the handle on the gate

Step 6: Install the 1-layer wood-plastic multi-purpose bar onto the gate frame (back of the gate)

On the back, do the same steps as step 5.

Horizontal gate cover

Vertical gate cover

Note: The gate is an area that is frequently exposed to sunlight. Kosmos recommends using the striped side of the multi-purpose bar exposed to the outside of the gate instead of using the wood grain side.

Multi-purpose wood plastic bar in addition to gate cladding with copper nail gun can also be used Construction of decorative screw gate cladding.

In addition to gate panels with 360-degree rotating hinges, customers can also make sliding gates or folding gates. The process of installing a 1-layer wood-plastic multi-purpose bar is the same, only the frame system is different when installed on the gate.

Note: Instructions are for reference only. To have the most suitable construction plan, it is necessary to survey the specific project and come up with an optimal construction solution.
