Installation preparation:
Electric drill: An electric drill is a tool that must be used during the installation process: Because the wood-plastic material has a high density (about 1.3g/cm³), the material is hard and brittle. Therefore, when fixing the guardrail of wood-plastic material, an electric drill must be used first. hole, and then screw in the screws to fix it. Do not nail directly, otherwise the material may be broken or cracked.
Other Tools: Common carpentry tools are also required during installation.
Stainless steel screws: When installing, we recommend using matching wood-plastic guardrail fasteners (engineering plastic injection molding parts) and stainless steel screws for fixation. The amount used is determined by the actual situation, and the main determining factor is the design of the guardrail. During the paving process, it is necessary to drill holes first and then fix the screws.
Wood-plastic materials: columns, square tubes, handrails, injection molded connectors, professional fixing kits, stainless steel screws, etc.
Installation steps：
1: Fixed plastic wood column
Fix the plastic wood column special fixings on the concrete floor with expansion screws (the length of the expansion screws is determined by the thickness and quality of the concrete floor at the construction site). First, put the columns on the professional column fixings. Generally, the distance between the columns is About 1.5 meters. The specific distance is determined by the actual local conditions or design plan, including the flow of people and the surrounding environment of the installation site.
2: First prepare the handrails and square tubes of the specified length, and use square tube connectors to connect them. First, fix the square tube connectors at the corresponding positions of the handrails, then insert the prepared square tubes into the connectors, and finally install them. Use another handrail. The distance between the square tubes depends on the specific situation. The reference distance is 100-200mm. The distance between the handrails depends on the specific situation. The recommended distance is 800-1000mm.
3: Install the installed handrails and columns through the handrail connectors. During installation, the handrails and columns cannot be closely connected. An expansion joint of 3-5mm should be reserved on each side. The installation height depends on the specific situation.
4: Fix the cap and the column. The cap can be made of wood plastic material or injection molded cap. It is up to the customer to choose.
Precautions for installing wood-plastic guardrails: The water absorption rate of wood-plastic materials is about 0.2%, and the expansion rate is about 0.5%. Therefore, when installing this guardrail, certain expansion joints should be reserved between wood-plastic profiles according to the actual situation. As the material may Will produce thermal expansion and contraction.
