In own house the ladder is just necessary design if there is the second floor. To save money, it can be built the hands for what it is necessary just to understand as it is correct to make a wooden ladder. Of course, this option is suitable for those who are able to use tools and are not afraid of work.
How most to make a wooden ladder?
It is worth beginning with determination of height of a ladder, for this purpose it is necessary to measure distance from the basis of a finished floor of the first floor, to the second. It is important to consider height a podstupenka which is in range of 15.2-19.7 cm. It is the best of all to take average value – 17 cm. Having divided ladder height into this number, it is possible to learn quantity of steps. Width appear there have to be at least 22 cm, and a maximum – 40 cm. Width of a march has to enter a limit of 100-140 cm and better if it the value is multiple to width appear. For determination of length of a ladder follows width appear to increase by quantity of steps. If the received value big, then it it is possible to make two-mid-flight with turn by 180 degrees. Gleam height over steps has to be 195-200 cm. It was necessary to calculate length of a kosour for what use Pythagorean theorem. For this purpose put squares of length and height of a ladder to receive a square of length of a kosour.
Finding out how to make a wooden ladder, it is important to understand what it is necessary to use materials. To make bowstrings or kosoura, bars of 50х250 mm are necessary. For substeps it is necessary to prepare beams at which thickness will be at least 25 mm. Appear better to do from 30 to 40 mm of beams. It is the best of all to make hand-rail and rail-posts in a workshop or to buy ready.
How to make a wooden ladder with own hands:
- At first establishes kosoura or a bowstring. The beam intended for this purpose should be sawn off, being guided by ladder length. From below it is necessary to cut off in addition thickness of one appear. Important in this action to consider also thickness of a step. Saw through apertures for steps in a kosoura for what make a marking on beam inside. Using the electric fret saw or a saw, saw off superfluous. Received kosour, it is necessary to put to the place where there will be a ladder. Consider that the top has to rest against overlapping, and a bottom – against a floor. Surely pay attention that zapila for steps were horizontal. Make 2 kosour, but if load of a ladder big, then maybe is more than them.
- The following step to instructions – how to make a ladder of a tree, means a careful proshkurivaniye of all surfaces. Kosoura connect to a beam, and it is necessary to make it both from above, and from below, using anchor bolts. At a possibility of a kosoura fix to walls. If one bowstring is used, then cut off it to the necessary size, and then, make deepenings for steps. To fix a bowstring, take an anchor.
- Time to establish substeps for what saw a beam on the necessary number of pieces came, being guided by the made calculations. Surely straighten them relatively each other and a zashkurta a surface. It is necessary to fix them to a kosour from the face, using self-tapping screws. That they did not spoil appearance, on completion of works they can be puttied or decorated. After that cut to a step, their zashkurta, and then, establish them into place and attach self-tapping screws. Surely previously miss the mark openings in a bowstring and a step with glue.
- At a step establish rail-posts and attach them hairpins at which thickness has to be in 8 mm, and length of 100 mm. It was necessary only to fix by self-tapping screws a handrail. It was necessary only to paint a ready ladder, but if you want to keep appearance of wood, then use just transparent varnish.
