This is a large range of color panels, and a significant period of operation, ease of maintenance, no putrefaction, atmospheric resistance, etc. If you used siding for finishing the walls of the house or dacha, then the covering of the roof gable with the same material is quite appropriate. This will give your structure a complete look.
You will need
- - vinyl siding panels;
- - crate;
- - self-tapping screws, nails;
- - Screwdriver;

Instructions
1
Manufacture of wood for finishing gable from timbersection of 50x100 mm. The decking of the scaffold is built from a board 50 mm thick, for cuttings take the edging board 25x100 mm. Do not forget about the fence. If the roof gable has ebbs, connect the bottom of the scaffolding rigidly to the wall. Use the ladder to finish the pediment with a siding. With a high-lying roof skate, make a second tier of scaffolding. Secure the woods for greater resistance to the roof gable through the window.

Secure the vinyl siding in one of 3 ways. First, make an aluminum frame, and then install the siding panels on it. However, this expensive method is not affordable for everyone. You can mount the panels directly on the wooden roof gables. The best solution is to mount the siding on a wooden crate.
3
Attach vertically solid wooden barsthe cross section chosen by you along the entire pediment at a distance of 40-50 cm from each other. Ensure that the outer surfaces of the laths are in the same plane. Wooden blocks nail to the pediment with nails, they are much cheaper than self-tapping screws. But the siding panels to the crate attach with screws, using a screwdriver. However, do not completely twist them to the end, leaving the panels room for maneuver at high temperatures.

Begin to sheathe the gable with siding. Using the level, set horizontally the starting bar. Use the screws to attach it to each rack. The groove of the starting plate is aligned with the profile spike. A characteristic click will indicate to you the correct connection. It is called a lock. After setting the first row, continue to the next row.
5
Trim the ends of the panels at an angle that repeatsroof slope. Use a metal square. When covering the pediment with a siding, leave a gap between the end of the panel and the crate. The clearance should be at least 1 cm. It is necessary to compensate for the thermal expansion of the siding. And it also prevents deformation of the panels when shrinking the house.

Before laying out the last row at the top, set the finishing line. The border of the wall covering of the house and the gable, the panel jamb hide under the plastic corner. Finishing of the gable is completed.
