The stone carpet floor panels can be easily laid on the existing floor (firm and level). Thanks to its flexible properties, the stone carpet flooring also adapts to small unevenness. The prefabricated elements are laid floating and bounded by walls or our special aluminum profiles so that they do not slip. Optionally, you can also fix the stone carpet floor panels selectively with our assembly adhesive.
Use an angle grinder to cut the floor slabs, stair and base elements to the correct and desired size. For a clean and straight cut edge, cut through the plate from above, that is, on the "beautiful" side. If you need a break edge, for example to work with the spatula set later, cut through the mesh on the back of the panel and break off the pieces at the edge of the table.
Balcony and stair profiles made of aluminum can be cut precisely straight (for stairs) or mitred (e.g. outside corner terrace / balcony) with a hand saw. You can of course also use a miter saw or a table saw with an aluminum saw blade.
First you drill holes in the aluminum profiles with a 6mm drill bit, so that the profiles can then be attached to the step with screws and dowels. Before doing this, the aluminum profiles must be cut to the correct length of the respective stair step (see instructions for cutting the profiles). It is advisable to clearly mark and number the aluminum profiles with a felt pen.
So that the screws (countersunk head screws) can be countersunk, the holes must be chamfered with a countersink drill.
Now all you have to do is place the pre-cut and pre-drilled stair profile on the step, mark the hole with the felt pen, drill the hole in the stair and then mount the aluminum profile on the stair with a dowel and countersunk screw.
The stair elements (sides and treads) are now pushed into the rails and fixed with the assembly adhesive that was previously applied in strips. The mounting adhesive strips must be attached perpendicular to the edge of the stairs so that the water drainage is not impeded.
