HOW TO ASSEMBLE AN INVISIBLE RASOMURO MDF HIDDEN DOOR

Below are easy step-by-step instructions for installing a concealed trap door in invisible "rasomuro" MDF with perfect aesthetic results.

Features:

• MDF door with various thicknesses from 12 to 19 mm

• 10 cm "Block Door" aluminum frame on all four sides (or only on three if we want to have a "door solution"). Note: these items are used in counter-walls or partitions, in environments such as basements, attics, attics, walk-in closets or for the creation of rooms and closets.

• push pull opening system

• invisible push pulls on the back

• three-dimensionally adjustable furniture hinges.

• door with outward opening

Mounting system:

• Lay the corrugated cardboard and cover sheets or, alternatively, the felt cloth on the ground to protect the flooring;

• Outline on a sheet of paper and then transfer on the wall, with a construction pencil, helping with the measurements with a professional tape measure, a positioning scheme of the door hatch in MDF calculating well dimensions and centimeters to avoid errors of installation;

• Position the uprights in such a way that the 10 cm "Door Block" aluminum frame can fit perfectly between them;

• Synchronize with a construction site square and a magnetic level with vials that the product is squared (ie the corners of the structure are at 90 degrees). Please note: the MDF retractable trap door differs from the previous ones as well as for the technical-mechanical characteristics, also for the assembly system. In fact, the 10 cm "Lock Leaf" aluminum frame must be fixed directly on the vertical uprights with self-drilling screws through the use of a screwdriver with depth adjustment;

• The desired compartment door is thus obtained;

• Then check that the push pull opening system works perfectly. Note: if the door does not close properly, it will be possible to improve its position by adjusting the hinges with a screwdriver;

• Complete everything by placing the plasterboard sheets on the outside of the wall, in adherence to the protruding profile of the frame, for a perfect flush door;

Grouting:

• Now proceed with the professional grouting of the joints and the heads of the screws;

• Then wait for the grout to dry and if necessary pass a second coat (see article on grouting and follow the instructions);

• Sand everything with a manual grinder by removing the excess grout present and flattening any discrepancies in the work;

Decoration and fantasy:

• Now pass a layer of fixative with a brush;

• All that remains is to proceed to decorate and paint the newly created door, leaving room for imagination.

Tools and materials:

• Meter (measuring tape or folding wooden meter)

• Construction pencil

• Magnetic level with vials

• Construction site team 90 degrees

• Screwdriver

• Screwdriver drill with depth adjustment

• Ladder

• Self-drilling screws

• Stucco

• Black bag 200g

• 4x4 cover cloth

ATTENTION: being this type of intervention very delicate, the advice is to contact a highly specialized company that can help you.
