Doors from a metal profile are lightweight and reliable. Profiled metal sheets are a versatile material that is also used in other areas of construction. Metal profile sheets are used as fences and roofing materials.
There are different types of profile gates . Making the simplest option requires the use of the following set of tools: an electric or gas welding machine, a tape measure, a grinder, an electric drill, a set of drills, a rivet gun.
The gate can be made in several ways. Let's describe the most classic of them. Profiled pipes with a rectangular or square section are required. The pipes are cut with a grinder according to the dimensions predetermined by the drawings. A rigid frame is welded from them. The resulting structure is painted with weather-resistant paint.
Marking is applied to the metal profile sheet, after which the sheet is cut into parts. Finished sheet metal parts are placed on a frame made of a shaped tube and fixed.
The sheet is fastened to the welded structure using a rivet gun. Before fastening, it is required to drill holes for rivets. The edge of the sheet must be treated with a special anti-corrosion compound. Then it is primed and painted to match the main surface. There are two possible ways of attaching a metal sheet profile to a welded structure: one-sided and two-sided. The gate design includes a wicket door with a sill.
There are also more modern production methods. Using these technologies, the frame is filled with aluminum profiles. An insulated version with filling with sandwich panels is also possible. The metal profile gates are reliable and will help prevent unwanted entry into the territory.
