Installation instructions of threshold stone
1. Is it necessary to install a threshold stone?
Many people are familiar with the "threshold stone" To some extent, most families will inevitably use threshold stones for decoration. Its most commonly used area is under the doorway between two spaces, which can make the ground pavement of two spaces play a certain transitional role, and it is also a very convenient decorative closed contour, which also plays a certain role in space division in a sense.
The advantage is that it can "blur" the boundaries between spaces visually, making the effect of ground pavement more atmospheric and beautiful.
The disadvantage is that the general master doesn't want to do it, because it will cost more labor and materials. In order to save trouble, the master usually suggests that we use threshold stones to close the unpatched ground pavement. At present, there is basically no threshold stone in the floor closure, and most of them will use PVC blank holders, but I think this is still not beautiful enough. )
If the floors of the two spaces are paved directly, the effect will be more beautiful and atmospheric, and there will be no sudden feeling at first glance. Although this is a small detail of decoration, decoration is a detail, which can determine the grade sense of our overall decoration, so now more and more people design it like this.
The area between the floor tile and the wooden floor is the most commonly used threshold stone, but you can see the design in the above picture. The living room balcony in this case is open, and the black threshold stone between the balcony tile and the living room floor is extremely abrupt.
Many people say that the main function of the threshold stone is waterproof, which can form a certain "water retaining height difference" for the two spaces to prevent the accumulated water from flowing into the dry area. For example, it can act on the balcony to prevent rain, and it can act on the bathroom door to stop water and prevent moisture.
Second, what are the feng shui taboos of the threshold stone?
1, lay the threshold stone, choose a good day, tilt the threshold stone inward, so as to make money, find eight copper coins and put them under the threshold stone, so as to keep peace. When placing the threshold stone, first find the center line of the door, and then put a 0 shape in the middle with copper coins (or put a small jade article in the middle of the 0 shape). After pressing the threshold stone, the host reads some auspicious words in his mouth, and then gives the prepared 12 yuan red envelope (12 yuan representative 12 months, which means getting rich every month) to the threshold stone master, and the threshold stone is completed.
2. Large copper coins (safe for entry and exit) are placed on the ground at the gate to avoid the rush of stairs or elevators. Hanging the yellow line in series on the right side of the gate can resolve the tongue dispute of women at home. Two copper wires are placed under the pillow to promote the harmony between husband and wife.
3, plum money on the back of the office chair or against the wall can prevent the villain from being stabbed behind. Putting it in a drawer that is often used is conducive to the career development and promotion of people who have just been promoted.
4. The color of the threshold stone must be similar to or the same as the door frame and floor. In the choice of color, it is best to match the door frame, otherwise, if the colors are not matched, it will not only look ugly. Some wonderful and uncoordinated colors, such chaotic collocation, will affect the balance of feng shui atmosphere at home. And it looks like it's broken. In the taboo of home improvement, the saying that the threshold stone is broken is very bad, which indicates that the fortune at home will get worse and worse. Feng shui will also be very unlucky, just like the broken beams at home, the wealth at home will also be interrupted, which is likely to cause bad luck.
5. Each threshold should not be laid in two equal parts, and it is best to decorate the threshold and the threshold at the same time. In other words, the lintel has a middle seam in the middle of the room. It's better for a gem to be a complete piece. Only in this way can the integrity of the gate be guaranteed, and it is safest to install it together. Threshold stones can prevent the leakage of wealth, which is also the reason why ancient houses made threshold stones very high. There is no need to make the threshold stone too high in modern times, but a certain height is enough, generally around 4-6cm. From the point of view of home, it can also be dustproof and waterproof.
3. What are the installation steps of the threshold stone?
1, it is best to install it with floor tiles. If it cannot be installed at the same time, the depth left for the stone should be ≥ 40 mm
2. Install the threshold stone first, and then install the door frame. Inside first, then outside.
3. The side connected with the wooden floor is stitched with copper strips.
4, light transparent stone, the following can't use ordinary cement. Use white cement. If laid directly on a wooden base, prepare glass glue.
5. Who installed the measuring ruler? Generally, it is installed by the bricklayer of the decoration company, so you can come and measure it.
