Fences in suburban areas can be built from different materials. But recently, corrugated board has been used for this purpose in most cases. Fences assembled from this material are distinguished by a long service life, reliability and aesthetic appearance. Reviews of fences from corrugated board from the owners of suburban areas deserve simply magnificent.
What are the advantages, according to summer residents, such hedges have
The main advantage of this type of fences, the owners of suburban areas, judging by the available reviews, consider their relatively low cost. Since the weight of this material is not too large, it is not necessary to fill the foundation when assembling a fence from it. Budget options for such fences are mounted simply on supports made of a profiled or ordinary pipe, concreted into the ground.
Good reviews about corrugated fences also exist because these designs are very durable. In the manufacture of metal sheets of this type, manufacturers cover them with a special polymercomposition, which significantly increases their service life. Such material is not subject to corrosion. Accordingly, the fence from it can be used for more than a dozen years.
The owners of suburban areas refer to the advantages of corrugated board and ease of installation. It will not be difficult to assemble a fence from this material with your own hands. Sheets of this type are attached to the fence girders using conventional roofing screws. On the supporting pillars they are fixed through mortgages using the same fasteners.
Are there any negative reviews about corrugated fences
The opinion of gardeners about hedges of this type is actually very good. Such structures are, of course, somewhat more expensive, for example, than the same picket fences, but they protect the space from prying eyes and the penetration of uninvited guests better.
Some of the disadvantages of budget structures of this type, the owners of suburban areas include the fragility of their frame. After all, the supporting pillars of this type of fences, like the girders, are assembled from ordinary rolled steel. They do not have a polymer layer. And therefore, over time, they begin to rust.
In terms of reliability, according to summer residents, fences of this design, of course, are inferior to concrete and brick fences. In any case, experienced owners of suburban areas advise to choose a rather thick corrugated board for the construction of a fence of this type. Thin material can be easily cut with metal shears. That is, it will be very easy for dacha thieves to get into a plot with such a fence.
What sizes can be
Of course, many summer residents and owners of country houses are also interested in what kind of corrugated board is better for a fence. Reviews of the hedge from this material deserve good. But they perform their functions well, of course, only fences assembled from a material suitable for this purpose.
Today, corrugated board is manufactured by many companies, unfortunately, not according to GOST, but according to TU. Accordingly, the sizes of such sheets can be very different. The width of corrugated board supplied to the market ranges from 800-1850 mm.
The length of this material, according to GOST, should be equal to 1060, 1200, 2300 or 6000 m. But for sheets made according to TU, this parameter, of course, may be different.
There are also many varieties of this material in terms of thickness. Such sheets are made by manufacturers from steel from 0.35 to 1.2 mm.
When choosing a corrugated board, the owner of a suburban area needs to pay attention to all these parameters. For example, fences made of very thin material of this type, the reviews from the owners of summer cottages deserved not too good. During operation, serious wind loads act on any fence. And thin sheets during a hurricane can simply bend or even break away from the frame.
It is believed that only corrugated board with a thickness of 0.6 mm is suitable for the manufacture of fences. Sometimes hedges are also collected on plots from thinner material. In some cases, the territory of dachas and country houses can be fenced usingeven corrugated board 0.35 for the fence. Reviews of such designs, as already mentioned, deserved not too good ones. But areas located in low-wind regions are still allowed to be fenced with such fences.
The height of the future fence depends on such an indicator as the length of the material. Vertically, such hedges are usually made without joints. This greatly increases their service life. And therefore, rather long sheets are usually chosen for fences.
The distance between the fence supports depends on the width of the selected corrugated board. The lower this figure, the more expensive the construction of the fence will cost.
What can be the height of the fence
In many cases, the owners of suburban areas for assembling a fence choose corrugated board with a length of 2300 mm. From such material, taking into account the foundation and the location of the lower run, it is possible to build a fence up to 2500 m high. Such a fence will protect the site from the penetration of intruders as reliably as possible.
Quite often, for the construction of fences from corrugated board, cottage owners also choose a smaller material made according to TU, 1500 mm or 1800 mm, or according to GOST 1300 mm. Fences 1.8-2 m high are erected from such corrugated board. Such fences cost less than the 2.5 m option. At the same time, they protect the territory almost as reliably. It is these fences that deserve the best reviews from summer residents. And it is fences of 1.8-2 m that are most often erected in suburban areas.
Stampsmaterial
The reputation of the manufacturer, of course, must also be taken into account when choosing a material for a corrugated fence. In any case, you need to familiarize yourself with reviews about companies that produce such sheets.
Among domestic summer residents and owners of residential buildings, for example, professional flooring of brands is very popular:
- Ural Plant of Roofing Materials.
- MetalProfile.
- Tegola.
Most often, for the construction of fences, the owners of suburban areas choose, of course, material coated with a colored polymer protective compound. But sometimes such structures can also be built from galvanized corrugated board. Reviews of fences collected from such sheets also deserve good ones from summer residents. However, the service life of such structures, as noted by the owners of suburban areas, is still lower.
Are they building 6m fences?
Such high fences in suburban areas are, of course, extremely rare. Sometimes structures of this type are installed around various kinds of industrial complexes. In some cases, such fences can be erected in private areas. Such structures are usually built by the owners of those country houses that are located, for example, next to forest plantations. In such zones, as is known, all sorts of dark personalities can gather. A 6 m fence will almost completely protect the site from the penetration of such people.
Distance between supports
Poles aterection of fences from a professional flooring can be mounted with a different step. Most of the owners of suburban areas consider the distance between the supports to be 3 m optimal. Such fences, judging by the reviews, are not too expensive and can be considered quite reliable. But sometimes, when assembling metal fences, supports are mounted more often - in increments of 2.5 m. This is done if the fence is supposed to be sheathed using a fairly thin corrugated board.
It is allowed to make joints between sheets vertically. That is, for the assembly of fences, you can use a fairly narrow material. However, when choosing a corrugated board for a fence, the step between the supports still needs to be taken into account. The width of the material should be such that it does not have to be cut later.
Some useful tips
Reviews of corrugated board fences from summer residents and owners of country houses deserve good ones. But to assemble such structures, of course, you need to comply with all the required technologies. When designing a fence from a profiled sheet, you should correctly choose not only this material itself. The pipe for supporting pillars and girders should also be purchased in accordance with the regulations. So, for example:
- for a 2 m high fence, supports 60 x 60 cm and purlins 40 x 25 mm, installed in 2 rows;
- for hedges 2.5 m high - respectively pipes 80 x 80 mm and 60 x 40 mm in 3 rows.
For a fence with brick supports, the owners of suburban areas are advised to choose a wider material. In thatIn this case, the supports can be placed less often. Accordingly, the fence will turn out to be less expensive. In addition, it will not look so bulky in this case.
Many owners of suburban areas collect such hedges on their own. But sometimes this work is entrusted to specialists. Such owners of private houses, of course, are also interested in where it is better to order a corrugated fence. Reviews about organizations involved in the assembly of such structures, of course, there are different. Such companies operate in every more or less large settlement. In order to determine the best one, you should first of all visit the city or regional portal and get acquainted with the opinion of other summer residents about such companies.
For example, after reading reviews of corrugated fences in Tyumen, we can conclude that the best companies involved in the construction of such structures are Zaboroff, Tyumen Fence, etc. in this region. of a company specializing in carrying out this kind of work, of course, you should definitely pay attention to its reputation.
Wave height
Reviews about corrugated fences in Omsk, Yekaterinburg, Moscow, etc. from the owners of suburban areas, there are only good ones. But in order for such a design to turn out to be reliable, among other things, it is worth paying attention to the wave height of the material. The strength of the sheets depends on this indicator. At the moment, manufacturers supply the market with corrugated board of two main varieties - wall androofing. The first type of material can have a wave height from 4 to 44 mm. For roofing material, this figure exceeds 44 mm.
In most cases, wall corrugated board is used to assemble fences. At the same time, summer residents consider such material with a corrugation height of 10 mm to be the best option for a hedge. Roof sheets are usually used only for high fences enclosing industrial complexes in windy regions.
