How to make a decorative partition with your own hands?

Often the division of space does not pursue the goals of making two rooms out of one room. As a rule, this is purely formal zoning. Also, such decorative partitions fit perfectly in place of the traditional bookshelf .

2. We mark the position of the construction on the floor and the wall with chalk. To do this, put the profile on the floor and circle it on both sides with chalk, and then retreat from the lines but 1.5 cm and attach the workpiece.
3. We make the markings for the racks. We install vertical profiles and fix them to the walls of a horizontal self-tapping screw.
4. In the same way, we form the remaining compartments of our partition.
5. We establish temporary jumpers. Marking of niches and jumpers is done symmetrically. The first side is performed under the level, the second side by the corner.
6. In order to provide additional rigidity of the structure, we use the reinforcements in the form of additional joints of profiles by web bridges and gypsum board strips.
7. We will sew the frame by the width of the structure. From one side from below we establish the whole sheet, and the top one is cut. On the reverse side, on the contrary. After oh, as all niches are cut, you can sew the ends of the remains.
8. Throughout the perimeter, an additional stapler fixes the perforated corner.
