Outer corner with plaster

[Hado]

How do you go about the corners, outer corners, when building with plasterboard? Should you use fabric or something? :

Hey! You can do it in these two ways. There is a metal strip called gyprochörn that is attached with nails or screws, there is also a special tool that you fasten with. Then you can also drywall with paper edge against paper edge, where you pass one a little beyond the other. This way, you get an even and nice edge to spackle against. Good luck!!!!!!!!!

Danogips HSK29 makes for incredibly fine corners with.
a steel corner profile that is fastened with special tools but can also be screwed if you have something behind to screw into.

Plaster and putty do not withstand the slightest impact, but with these moldings, the corner becomes strong, straight, and neat! They are, as mentioned, hammered into place with a fastening tool at cc150 and permanently fixed with the putty. If the corners are screwed in place, there's a risk that the screw heads will get in the way when applying the putty, which is otherwise facilitated a lot with the molding. It has a small "bump" at the outer edge of the corner, and the height of the bump corresponds to the indentation on the edge of the board.

The track:

And the fastening tool, which costs just over a thousand kronor. It is applied with the angles on the corner and then you strike it with a hammer on the rubber cushion, upon which the two carbide pins retract and force sheet metal tabs into the gypsum boards:

Tips.
If the corner is expected to be exposed, I recommend driving a couple of long screws or nails here and there into the molding (which can also be called corner iron or corner profile).

I have experienced the moldings coming loose a bit occasionally, but that has been in corners that were heavily exposed and there were children in the house...
In most cases, however, it is sufficient to install them with clinch-on.

Thanks for the answers! Hmm...1000 spänn for a tool that will be used for 2 full-height corners + 2 corners at the dormer. Regular wooden corner moldings might be something, they should probably handle quite a bit?

Buy the lists, but nail them with paper nails or similar instead of screwing them. The putty, as mentioned, helps to fix them.

It's okay to use regular drywall screws, the head of the screw is lower than the "nose" on the corner.

Where can you get that kind of outer corner list for plasterboard????

Where can I get a corner profile for drywall????

They are available at almost all hardware stores. Check that they are straight before you bring them home.

Glue the corner with PL400.. it sticks like a rock and will never come loose!!!

Glue the corner with PL400.. it holds like a rock and will never come off!!!

That's what I usually do.

I have installed a lot of that in my house. Now we come to the next problem. What should I do with wallpaper/fabric? In one room, I will put microlit, and on the other side, there will be wallpaper. The doorway in between will not contain a door, so I have installed metal corners.

Can I apply microlit around the corners, and should I extend the wallpaper all the way to the corner? Will it be fragile then? See image http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SfzF_cWC6RM/Stsf2eeR2WI/AAAAAAAABBw/gYjs6BLwN0M/s1600-h/IMG_0326[1]

Aluminum angles at biltema for 5 SEK/meter that are fastened with a staple gun. Could it work? I'll test this over the weekend.
