Dry Walling
Discover the benefits of dry walling for office renovations. Learn how it can help create cohesive and efficient office spaces…
Johanna contacted us to assist with dry walling installation at Middindi in Ruimsig as part of their new offices.
She already had a clear picture in mind of the layout required but also required that non-structural brickwork be removed to allow two separate units to be merged into one office space.
Some existing walls had to demolished and new ones build. We also had to install kitchen cabinets and plumbing to create a fully functional kitchen
We also had to fit a sliding door with top rail, canopy, grip handles ext onto newly installed dry walling to created a bathroom.
After all dry walling was completed the electrical articulation was completed .
The walls was then painted and Belgotex Berberpoint 920 carpets installed.
As can be seen the final product was not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing.
The structure was created from galvanized floor track which was fixed to the floor with nail in screws, aluminium natural anodized channel fitted to the ceilings and dry walling where required and galvanized studs as per supplier recommendation. Corner sections done with galvanized angle and all secured with drywall screws.
It needs to be noted that accuracy when constructing the dry walling structure is of utmost importance. If the structure is poorly constructed the end product will be of poor visual quality.After the drywalling structure was completed 12.5mm Gypsum board cladding was used.
Windows was fitted using natural anodized aluminium glazing sections, natural anodized beads, bubble gasket and 6.38mm safety glass.
Doors fitted had natural anodized aluminium frames, natural anodized hinges, medium duty hollow core doors and standard lock sets.
Joint was then fiber taped and two coats Rhinoglide applied. The joints was sanded to a smooth finish in preparation of painting of the dry walling.
Well done to the team!!!
