[VIDÉO] Trucs et astuces pour l'application de panneaux LP® SmartSide®
Not all exterior siding options are created equal. Les produits de cabanon LP sont superbes et exceptionnellement durables afin que votre local d'entreposage ou autre structure soient d'une qualité supérieure. Si vous êtes prêts à commencer un projet de cabanon, jetez un coup d’œil à cette vidéo pour découvrir quelques astuces rapides pour une installation réussie de moulures en panneau LP® SmartSide®.
Build It Up
When building your shed, make sure to keep LP SmartSide panel siding at least six inches from the ground. To achieve this, use blocks on a gravel base or materials designed for ground contact under the skids. You'll get the proper ground clearance and be able to level your shed.
Plan for Easy Cuts
Avoid making long vertical cuts by ensuring all LP SmartSide panel joints meet on a stud. If they don't, you can always add an extra stud where the panels meet. If you have to cut a panel, make the cut at the end of the wall where it will be covered by trim.
Window First
Always install your windows and flashing to the studs before you hang your LP SmartSide panel siding. Carefully cut the window opening in the panel with a 3/16-inch gap along the sides and the bottom of the window, and a 3/8-inch gap along the top. This will allow you to slope the flashing to channel water over the window head.
Perfect Alignment
It's easy to install LP SmartSide panels perfectly straight by nailing a level 2×4 ledger board around the floor joists. Position and secure the panels per your nailing instructions, then remove the ledger board.
