The door platband is designed to perform one function - to block, as a rule, the unsightly connection of the door frame with the opening in the wall. Simply put, this is a flashing that plays an exclusively decorative role - the doors will work without it, but they will look at least unfinished. Doors also have an unfinished look, the box of which in its width does not match the thickness of the wall in the opening of which they are installed - a wide box can still be cut off, but it is possible to build up a narrow one only to the detriment of appearance. This issue is solved in two ways - the box is either equipped with extensions, or the so-called telescopic casing is used, which will be discussed in this article, in which, together with the website, we will deal with its features.

Telescopic platband: what is it and how does it work

On telescopic things familiar to us given type the clypeus is practically not similar, and it can be called such only conditionally - yes, it performs its functions to increase the width, but it does not do it quite the way the concept of "telescopic" implies. It does not move apart - it would be more correct to say, it is extended or regulated. At its core, this is an ordinary corner, one shelf of which, during the installation process, is placed in a groove at the end of the door frame - by seating telescopic door trims in the groove, you can insert it deeper or smaller. It is due to this that the increase occurs, or it would be more correct to say, the overlapping of the missing part of the door frame - in fact, this is a platband combined with an additional rail.

There are two types of similar products that easily allow you to solve the issue of the lack of width of the door frame - these are standard telescopic trim on the door and, so to speak, their extended version.

In principle, both versions of such products fully cope with the tasks assigned to them - as you understand, they differ from each other only in their purpose and the presence of an extension for doors. But these are not all types of telescopic architraves - in addition they can be classified according to two more features, which we will discuss further.

What are telescopic platbands: varieties

The features mentioned above, according to which telescopic architraves can be divided into two more groups, are nothing more than the material from which they are made, as well as the size.

In principle, this is all that can be said about the types of telescopic door frames.

How to install telescopic platbands: installation nuances

For a better understanding of the essence of this issue and in order to avoid unnecessary problems, we will consider the installation technology of these products using the example of an extended version of the telescopic casing. Point by point, this process can be represented as the following sequence of work.

In such a simple way, a direct telescopic casing is installed. Why is it straight, you ask? Yes, because there are also their arched counterparts, the purpose of which is to close the gaps between the opening and arched doors or just arches.

And in conclusion of the topic about the telescopic casing, a few words about the nuances that may or may not arise during their installation. Basically, there is only one. Quite often there are problems with and with the striker, the screws of which simply interfere with the installation of the telescopic casing. There are two ways out of the situation - in these places, in the shelves of the platband inserted into the groove, you can make small cutouts, or you can remove everything that interferes and install it again after installing the platbands. The second option is preferable, since together with the canopies and the plank, the screws will simultaneously fix the casing.

Previously, the installation of platbands for an interior door required certain measurements, patience and accuracy, but even this did not guarantee the correct and even installation of these decorative elements, they did not know about extensions at all in those days. However, modern solutions and competition in the market has a positive effect on the development of production, due to which from time to time some innovations appear on the market that qualitatively improve the doors and the process of their installation in the doorway. Everyone knows what interior doors are, however, not everyone understands what extensions for an interior door and telescopic architraves are. In this article, we will take a closer look at each concept separately.

Telescopic architraves for interior doors
In the design of any room, everything should be perfect, especially the interior door. It is she who meets and escorts guests, it is the doors that are the first piece of furniture that a person entering the room sees, which means that the interior of the room will be associated with him in the first place. front door. Far from being the latest decor element of an interior door are platbands.

The platband is decorative functional element, with which they hide the connection of the door frame and the walls of the room. Also, they decorate the doorway by framing it around the entire perimeter, except for the threshold or floor. Depending on the installation method, there are two types of platbands:

1. Traditional platbands
2. Telescopic architraves

Overhead platbands are mounted using fasteners and glue. They are simply superimposed on the door intersection of the door frame with the wall and fastened. Their main disadvantage is the complexity of installation. Given the fact that the platbands are simply applied - they can be displaced in different directions relative to the door, thereby violating the geometry and appearance doorway.

Telescopic architraves have a special design that does not allow them to move relative to the door, thereby maintaining the ideal geometry of the doorway, moreover, their installation is much easier and does not require the use additional tool and taking measurements. The design of telescopic architraves is ingeniously simple - there is a fastening ledge on the casing, which is located at an angle of 90 degrees to it. It is this protrusion that is inserted into a groove specially made at the factory in the door frame, thanks to which the platband perfectly follows the contour of the door and is installed without any problems.

When installing telescopic architraves, Special attention pay attention to what fasteners door hinges will cross the grooves. In these places, the fastening ledge on the casing is removed to the required depth using a milling cutter or similar cutting tool.

Advantages of interior doors with telescopic architraves:

• Platbands are quickly and easily installed
• In some cases, platbands are great solution to avoid the installation of extensions
• Platbands hide all inconsistencies between the wall and door frame
• This design makes the platbands easily removable. For example, they can be removed during repairs in order to properly and efficiently paste wallpaper or perform painting work.
• Telescopic platbands do not require fasteners or glue, as a result - there are absolutely no traces of platbands fastening to the doorway

Dobory for interior doors
Sometimes the installation of an interior door is complicated by the fact that the wall is wider than the door frame, and after installing the door, the inside of the opening remains open. To seal this part, many use plastic or close the opening with plaster. However, there is a more acceptable, simple and aesthetic beautiful way close up the inner opening, which remained uncovered by the door frame - install door extensions.

Door trim is wood panel, which is a continuation of the door frame and connects it to the casing, thereby hiding the remaining surface of the doorway underneath. The extension itself, in fact, is an extension of the door frame to the casing. If the door frame is equipped with telescopic trim, then the extension must be appropriate - with a special groove for installing a telescopic trim.

Advantages of installing door extensions:

• This finish of the doorway favorably emphasizes the doors as a separate element of the interior and is just as practical as plastic or plastered slopes.
• In case of damage, they can be easily replaced without the need for extensive repairs.
• They are more resistant to mechanical damage than plaster

Dobors are often sold complete with a door structure. If they are not included in the kit - do not worry! There are a lot of different extensions on the market, among which you can choose the necessary ones. When choosing a dobor, it is necessary to pay attention to their color, texture and shade of color. Dobors must be in a single color scheme, which will create the impression of a single door structure. When choosing an extension, be sure to consider the type of trim, if you have telescopic trim - the trim must be equipped with a special groove for installing this structural element.

Production features

The material for the manufacture of the frame and door frame is wood. conifers trees. It is sawn into fragments, carefully processed, removing natural resin pockets, knots and damage. The dried beams glued together along the length lose the tension of solid wood, therefore they almost do not react to sudden changes in temperature and humidity in the room. Due to this property, the product is not deformed.
The frame is covered with a layer of PVC, which is currently comparable in strength to veneer, but significantly surpasses it in a number of other characteristics, which we will talk Further. Thanks to the coating PVC interior doors additionally receive protection against moisture, do not react to high humidity air and can be used for installation even in bathrooms, toilets and kitchens.
Doors acquire increased impact resistance, resistance to mechanical damage, scratches and chips, as evidenced by customer reviews. The cost of products with PVC coating is much lower than veneered, but higher than laminated, covered with paper. Being in the middle price category, they have a huge wear resistance resource and, depending on the load, frequency of use, quality of care, external mechanical and chemical influences, they can last for decades, for which manufacturers have repeatedly received best reviews buyers.

Platbands on MDF doors are an important part of the design, because they close the joint between the frame and the wall and give the opening a neater and more attractive look. But in order to achieve the best result, you need to choose high-quality elements and properly fix them.

First, we will analyze the most popular options used for MDF doors. Then a universal installation option will be considered, which is suitable for all products and which can be implemented by hand.

Note! The installation process is not complicated and does not require special skills and abilities.

Platbands on MDF doors can be of four types:

1. Wooden;
2. plastic;
3. From MDF;

wooden elements

Their main advantages are obvious:

• Environmental friendliness. Products are made from natural wood, therefore safe for human health and can be used in residential areas without any restrictions;

• Beautiful structure of elements. Wood has a unique texture, in addition, you can choose products from different breeds wood - from budget pine to oak or cedar;

• Various profiles and product sizes. Made from wood great amount platband options with a width of several centimeters or more. You can choose both standard products and custom-made options that will be made according to your sketch. The price of such options will be much higher, but if you value exclusive solutions, then you yourself understand that there will be no savings here;

• Possibility of decoration. You can buy both uncoated products and trim in the color you need. In the future, the surface can be repainted, which is also important, because other options are not painted.

As for the disadvantages of wood products, they are as follows:

• The highest price of all options. And the higher the grade of the platband, the more you have to pay. Valuable breeds trees are even more expensive;
• Difficulty getting into shade. If you have plain colors, then it will not be difficult to choose the paint for the casing. But if you have an imitation of a natural texture or complex coloring, then it will be very difficult to get into color;
• Low resistance to moisture. If the room is damp, then wooden casing can be deformed, and over time, fungus and mold form on it;
• Pest infestation- various insects can spoil the elements over time.

Plastic casing

This option has appeared recently, but has already gained considerable popularity due to the following reasons:

• Reliability. Plastic is not afraid of moisture, so it can be used in any room. The service life of such elements is tens of years, because they do not rot, crack or swell from moisture;

• Dimensional accuracy. All products are manufactured on high-precision equipment, so they have the same parameters. But, more importantly, with changes in temperature and humidity, the elements do not change size and retain their original characteristics;
• Products may have different colors and sizes. With the help of a special film on the surface, an imitation of different textures is created, and monophonic options are also produced. The width varies from 6 to 12 cm, but the parameters may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer;

• Possibility of cable laying. If you need to lay wires, then you can use a special casing with a cable channel. You can hide several wires in it at once, which is very convenient when the repair is already completed, and there is no other way to hide the wiring.

Among the shortcomings, the following should be highlighted:

• Difficulty with accurate hit in shade. Always make sure in advance that the option you choose goes well with the door leaf, and will not look foreign;

Advice! If you are not sure, it is better to buy one plank and attach it to the door, if everything is fine, then you can purchase as many trim as you need.

• Not a very attractive look. If from afar the platband looks good, then upon closer inspection it is clear that this is an inexpensive imitation of natural material.

Platband from MDF

MDF platbands on the door have the following advantages:

• They are made from the same material as the doors in the same factories. That is, they will match perfectly in color. No need to look for the elements separately, they are sold in the same place as the doors, and you can buy everything as a set;

• Low cost. This option has an affordable price, which is also important. And often, when buying doors, sellers give an additional discount on all additional elements;

• Various product options. In addition to the fact that the MDF trim may vary in profile and width, it may have different coverage. Most cheap option- paper, a more reliable solution is film, and the most interesting view products - veneered planks, outwardly they are practically indistinguishable from natural wood;

• Ease of processing. The veneered casing weighs a little, it is easy to cut and fasten, which is important for those who do the work with their own hands.

Of the minuses of veneer, the following can be distinguished:

• Low resistance to moisture. For this reason, the trim is recommended for use in residential areas, although it works well in the kitchen and even in the bathroom. The main thing is that water does not constantly get on the surface;
• Impossibility of repair. If you damage the veneer or film on the surface, you will have to change the entire element. You won't be able to repaint it.

Telescopic casing

This option is also made of MDF, but has so many important differences that it always stands out as a separate type.

Its main advantages are:

• Sold with a door frame. The photo below shows the design of the system, from which it can be seen that all its elements are clearly adjusted to each other. You don't have to search suitable option, everything will already be in stock;

• Ease of installation. To install a platband, you do not need to have experience in this area. One has only to cut off all the elements in size and combine them correctly;

• Lack of fasteners. Due to the fact that the casing has an L-shape and is inserted into special grooves on the box, you do not need to use any glue or nails. All that is needed is to carefully insert the element into the groove and follow the uniform gap along the entire length of the door frame;

• Ease of dismantling - if necessary, the trim is carefully removed from the groove and put back again. There is no need to rip out nails or tear off glue.

As for the cons, they are:

• The telescopic casing cannot be placed on any MDF doors. It can only be used where there are special boxes with grooves for the installation of such elements. And in most cases there are standard boxes;
• Items need to be placed carefully. If you overdo it and hit the casing too hard, it can crack. It is also very important to take measurements correctly so as not to cut off the excess and not spoil the product.

Product characteristics

Dimensions

We are talking mainly about the width of the front strip of the product, since the length of the elements in the kit is usually standard: two racks of 220 cm each, and one horizontal part of 120 cm.

But the width can be different. Again, sizes from 60 to 80 mm are considered the standard, but they can change in any direction, both larger and smaller.

The diagram shows the main dimensions that are important for the installation and aesthetic perception of the door frame

• Standard width trims fit most doors.
• But there may be exceptions. For example, with a massive oak door, wider products will look better.
• But those whose width is less than 50 mm look frivolous. In addition, they may simply not close the gap between the wall and the box.

Therefore, before buying, always measure this distance so as not to be mistaken. Narrow architraves are in most cases used only when others do not fit in width between the door and the perpendicular wall. Or some other structural element of the interior.

An example in the photo is a door in a corner or in narrow corridor. Platband in interior products

The form

Another criterion for choosing a casing is the shape of the front part. It can be straight, rounded, curly and any other. And must match the view door leaf: the simpler it is, the less embossed the frame should be.

Below are the most common door frame profiles:

Straight, photo

Advice. You can try to pick up platbands that match the skirting boards in shape, color and width. Sometimes it looks very interesting.

Mounting elements

We will analyze a universal mounting option suitable for any type of platband - installation using finishing nails.

First of all, you need to purchase everything you need:

• Platband. Its quantity is calculated based on the size of the openings. Remember that on each door a frame is placed on both sides. As for the width, it should be sufficient to close the gap between the box and the wall, it is better if the casing goes on the wall by 2-3 cm;
• Finish nails. Special variant fasteners, which are distinguished by their small thickness and reduced cap size. The length of the nails can vary from 20 to 50 mm. The color may also differ, it is selected in such a way that the attachment points are as little as possible visible on the surface.

The tool needs the following:

• Roulette for all necessary measurements and a construction pencil for marking. These devices should be in the arsenal of any master;

• Wood saw. Choose a tool with a fine tooth as it cuts much cleaner. Instead of manual fixture you can use a jigsaw if you have it at hand;

• A construction knife is necessary if frozen wood protrudes along the perimeter of the box. polyurethane foam. You can get by with a blade to a knife, it is flat and it is very convenient for them to cut off all that is superfluous flush with the level of the wall;
• A hammer is needed for hammering finishing nails, the best option is 300-400 grams;
• Screwdriver or drill. In the process, you need to drill several holes for the nails. In the kit, you must also have a drill, the diameter of which matches the diameter of the nails used;
• A construction square is needed in order to make perfectly even ends of the casing. With it, you can easily mark the cutting lines.

The work instructions look like this:
