Priming the base improves the adhesion of adhesive compositions and prevents moisture from the adhesive from being absorbed into the base. The choice of primer depends on the type of base and the adhesive used.

Methods of mounting

Mechanical fastening with screws or nails ensures a secure connection but requires subsequent filling of the fastener heads. Hidden fastening eliminates visible installation marks but demands higher precision in installation.

Adhesive bonding ensures even load distribution along the entire length of the profile. Modern polyurethane adhesives create a strong, elastic bond that compensates for thermal deformations.

Joint Treatment

The quality of corner joints is a measure of the installer's professionalism. Precise trimming "on the nose," careful fitting of elements, filling of micro-gaps — all these operations require experience and patience.

Special corner elements simplify installation and guarantee high-quality results even when working with profiles of complex configuration. External and internal angles, connectors, and caps — all this hardware must precisely match the profile of the main elements.

Maintenance and care: preserving beauty for years

Proper care extends the service life of wooden profiles and preserves their original appearance. Different types of finishes require specific maintenance approaches.

Preventive Care

Regular dry cleaning with soft cloth removes dust and surface contaminants. Wet cleaning should be done with a well-wrung cloth using specialized wood cleaning agents.
