The ground keel that must be understood before laying the floor

Paving the floor is not the same as tiling. Tiles can be pasted directly, but wood floors are different. Before laying the wooden floor, you need to play the keel (composite wooden floor is generally not needed. The keel has a certain fixing effect on the wood floor, which can prolong the life of the floor if installed. Here is a brief introduction to the ground keel.

Important auxiliary material for fixing keel

Meigu nail is an important auxiliary material for fixing keel, and it must be made of waterproof and rust-proof stainless steel, so that it will not rust due to long-term moisture.

Don't use nails

Irresponsible companies cut corners and use nails. Although nails can also play a role in fixing the keel, it is easy to rust after a long time, the keel will loosen, and of course the floor will creak.

Location and spacing of keel laying

Laying keel is a meticulous work. One is to determine the position of the keel according to the direction and length of the floor laying, and to ensure that the spacing between each keel cannot exceed 30 mm, and both ends of each floor should be placed on the keel.

Standard quantity of solid wood floor keel

At present, there is no uniform standard for the standard number of keel of solid wood floor. At present, the installation of solid wood flooring is generally 3 to 4 keels per meter of wood flooring. Generally speaking, the length and width of the solid wood floor is 9 10 mm * 120 mm. For a floor of this size, only three floor keels need to be laid, but if four keels are laid, it will be relatively firm and firm, with hard feet and difficult deformation of the board.

Drying treatment of ground keel

But it should be noted that when installing the floor keel, it must be dry. If the floor keel itself is not dry, it will affect the later use of the solid wood floor, and it will also cause the solid wood floor to be damp and corrode.
