Water pipes and sewage

In the kitchen, we are dealing with water pipes, sewer, as well as gas pipes. In the first case, you do not take a lot of time: you put a special sleeve on the sewer pipeline, turning it with its polyethylene film (make several layers), install on the site where there are tap pipes, the bottom of the washing. Remember that it is impossible to stir such pipes, as it will complicate the repair later! Now go to gas pipes.

Gas pipes

More inconveniences are associated with gas pipes, and their masking is a more complex procedure. It is important to understand that it is impossible to tightly close the pipeline, as it is very dangerous in terms of gas leakage.

Dancer from plasterboard

This method is a classic one who helps to close the pipes not only in the kitchen, but also in the bathroom. The box arrangement procedure comes down to the following:

Prepare moisture resistant plasterboard, frame profile (3 pcs.), Screwdriver, scissors for metal and self-tapping screw, as well as mounting foam.
Calculate the dimensions that the future box will have, not forgetting to ensure access to the pipes.
Then we are engaged in installing the profile in a vertical position.
At the next stage, cut the blanks from the drywall, pre-exhausted them on sheets. For this, scissors are used to work with the metal.
Cut the frame of plasterboard, fixing the workpiece to the profile by self-draws.
If irregularities and slots occur between the wall and the box, blow their mounting foam, removing the surplus subsequently.
The front side of the box is definitely vested with a finishing material, for example, ceramic tiles. Also, the design can be painted, not forgetting to sharpen the surface before it.

Hinged cabinets

In this case, furniture is used without rear walls. Vertical pipes can be closed by setting the cabinet-penalty, and when disguised horizontal, the kitchen cabinet is sufficient so that the pipes are located along its shelves. Such headsets are also great in order to hide in them non-psycho counters. At the same time, please note: under no circumstances are the mounted cabinets on the gas pipes and do not place the gas column in the cabinet!

Realinki

If the pipe passes along the whole wall, in the "Apron" zone, that is, between mounted cabinets and a tabletop, it is possible to make it an element of the railing system. This is a special suspension design, which is used to locate a different kind of hooks, dryers and other devices. To do this, clean the pipe so that it acquires a metal shine, cover it with chrome paint, making several layers, attach the hooks, shelves and what you wish. In this case, the impression will be created that the fastening elements hang on the pipe.

Removable table top

Often a gas pipe with a crane takes place at 75 cm above the floor, so the option with a removable worktop in this case is more than appropriate. On the table top, which is located above the crane, it is necessary to do the hole and provide for the presence of a special handle to which the pipe will be attached. Having done from the bottom on the pipe cut, put the valve on it. It can be covered with a handle with a countertop.

Decor pipe

If the kitchen has modest sizes, and there is no possibility to build a plasterboard box or install a mounted cabinet due to a lack of free space, it is possible to simply re-establish the pipe.

When decorated, you can use our prompts:

The thick pipe is made by the interior mosaic or shed in any pattern, however, so that it does not get out of the overall style of the kitchen. For example, you can decorate the tube under the trunk of birch, but at the same time it is necessary to competently think about the art composition and wall decoration, for example, to crack them with washing wallpaper with a harmonious pattern - green leaves.
Interesting is a decoupage technique. To do this, prepare multilayer napkins that have a beautiful pattern, PVA and varnish glue. Having reading the pipe, you must first paint, and then go to the napkins, or rather, their upper layer with a pattern. After drying the material, the surface is covered with varnish to achieve a beautiful shine.
The budget option is considered to paint unsightly pipes in the tone of the walls so that they do not stand out against the background of the finish.
