Patent direction of floor

When placing large pieces of furniture such as wardrobes, many people will consider whether the room needs keels. So, is the keel necessary? This article will answer this question for you.

The role of keel

The main function of keel is to stabilize the structure of solid wood floor. When laying, the direction of the keel should be perpendicular to the direction of the floor, which can stagger the constraints and prevent the floor from stretching.

Evolution of Solid Wood Flooring

With the development of technology, many solid wood floors have adopted the way of tile installation, and keel is no longer needed. These floors usually have patented locking technology, which can ensure that the floors will not be stretched and deformed. Some brands use other materials instead of keel structure, which also ensures the stability of the floor.

Choose brand and technology

Of course, which installation method to choose mainly depends on the brand and technical strength. Especially now, most families use floor heating, and the solid wood floor is easy to deform when laid directly on the floor heating, so it is necessary to carefully choose powerful brands and technologies.
