Metal siding under the log ( block house ) does not burn out over time, it is resistant to cracking and corrosion, it is fireproof. Together with other thermal insulation materials, it is often used for insulation of buildings. Finishing of buildings with metal siding under the log can be carried out in any weather. It well withstands summer heat and severe frost.
It is successfully used for facing both private houses and industrial enterprises. Old buildings after sheathing with metal siding under the log acquire a qualitatively new surface. The irregularities that have arisen during the construction process have no special significance. The weight of the metal lining can withstand any foundation, since the load on it, if any, is insignificant. Hidden from the eyes of fasteners and elements give the building an aesthetic appeal.

How to mount metal siding under a log?
Before starting the work, the owner needs to clear the front of the house and think about the need to install a billet. Wooden or metal, it is mounted if surface defects were detected. In addition, the crate creates the necessary ventilation for the walls. Then, a heater is attached to the surface, and in the most difficult places to the crate are additional elements, similar in structure to metal siding.
In the process of fixing the panels, the screws are screwed into the center of the hole, but not tightly. The gap left up to 1.5 mm is sufficient for the movement of the metal when the weather changes. There is also a need for a gap between special slats and siding up to 8 mm.
Works on the plating begin at the corners of the building. Each subsequent row is fastened to the previous one using locks. The first panel is attached to the bar (additional element). If you need to make a figured cut, first deal with this procedure, and only then fasten the strips of the siding with each other.
Metal siding under the log is a universal material that perfectly suits not only for facing facades of buildings, but also for fence. Thus, the uniform style of the whole plot is maintained.
