Fence from the KDP: description, characteristics and reviews

For the manufacture of fences today is useda huge amount of materials. Most often on private plots, you can find a wooden fence, metal mesh fences and profiles of profiled sheets, supplemented with brick poles.

More recently, anotherThe variant, which allowed to diversify the design of the protective structures, is a wood-polymer composite. The DPK fence is endowed with all the positive characteristics of products made from natural wood and plastic, without requiring permanent protective treatments and stains.

What are fences from the KDP?

Wood-polymer composite is a material,the main components of which are wood fibers and polymers (polyethylene, polypropylene and PVC). From these components a thick mixture is made, which, under the influence of high pressure, is given a definite shape. The finished product may take the form of a board, profile or more complex elements, from which various types of enclosure are assembled.

The fence made of WPC can be manufactured in classic(in the form of vertically arranged boards), in the form of a blind fence (when boards are installed between two columns in a horizontal position) or consist of a large number of narrow elements that are located in the cross direction and diagonally.

The finished structure may resemble a product made of plastic or MDF, but in the first and in the second variant the fence has sufficiently high technical characteristics.

Positive features

Due to the fact that synthetic binders are present in the raw material, the material acquires a number of positive qualities that are not inherent in wood at all. Namely:

1. The fence from the KDP is not susceptible to rotting and settling with mold and fungi.

2. The material is resistant to moisture, ultraviolet radiation and sudden temperature changes.

3. All elements of the fence are finished and do not need additional processing.

4. During the operation, the fence does not need to be periodically painted, just wipe it with a damp cloth.

5. Due to the low weight and ease of processing of the composite, these structures are very quickly and easily installed.

6. Rich color scale and a variety of texture allow you to select a fence for any style of registration of the site and take into account all the taste preferences of the owner.

disadvantages

Fences from any materials have their drawbacks, the fence from the KDP was no exception. Comments from consumers speak only of two negative aspects of the product:

• susceptibility to mechanical damage;

• changing the dimensions of the boards during their operation.

Indeed, such a fence can easily be scratched or damaged by any sharp object. However, such defects are easily eliminated with the help of special restoration pencils.

Long exposure to moisture and sun canlead to a slight deformation of the structural elements, that's why the manufacturer took into account the presence of special gaps, ensuring the free installation of all the slats.

Installation

Anybody can take the fence out of the KDP. Its design is so simple that you do not need to have special skills to build a fence.

The standard kit includes 5 basic parts:

• support poles performing the carrier function;

• stubs for supports;

• basic plates or boards;

• fasteners for fixing parts;

• various decorative elements.

The installation process begins with installationmetal tubes-racks, on which a composite pillar is put on top. Elements are joined by horizontal profiles, to which the main boards and decorative inserts are fixed. Thus, the whole fence from the KDP gathers. Photo-instruction for installation manufacturer applies to the materials, so everything a master needs to build such a fence is attentiveness and accuracy.
