How sofas are manufactured. Folding sofa with their own hands. We do to the balcony or in a gazebo

In order to make furniture, you need to create a drawing, make a sofa without this stage will also be impossible. It is not necessary for the sofas to purchase expensive materials, including a timber with a large cross section or laminated plates. It is not recommended to equip and complex thorns compounds, as it is possible to make them capable of a professional professional. It is not worth using nails as a fastener, as such connections are fairly spoiled and the sofa will turn to creak. Self-tapping screws will be the best solution. Additionally, you need to apply glue.

Making an angular sofa

In order to make an angular sofa design, you need to stock the following materials and tools:

Figure 1. Sketchy sofa drawing, the dimensions of which can be corrected depending on the size of the living room.

  • pine timber 30x50 mm;
  • 5- and 15 mm plywood;
  • lifting mechanism;
  • 3 mm Fiberboard;
  • 16 mm chipboard;
  • legs in the amount of 9 pcs.;
  • 20- and 40 mm foam rubber;
  • upholstery fabric;
  • hollofiber;
  • sintepon;
  • batting,
  • hacksaw;
  • stuslo;
  • stapler;
  • drill;
  • self-tapping screw;
  • screwdriver.

Figure 2. Drawing of a sofa with measurements.

In fig. 1 shows a schematic, the dimensions of which can be corrected depending on the size of the living room. Works need to start with decaying elements, including: frame, back, armrests, seat. The assembly needs to be carried out in such a sequence. Armrests should be the same, and their assembly is made through self-tapping screws.

You can make a frame of the left side, having prepared two sidewalls to which the longitudinal bars are strengthened, and after - racks. The latter should be enhanced by transverse screed. Now you can start the installation of the seat left part. You need to install the seat frame. As soon as the frame will be installed on the frame, you need to strengthen the Phane. After you can fix the fiberboard to the back of the left. At the next stage, you can move to the installation of the right part.

Folding product under Japanese futon

For the manufacture of the sofa, the frame of which can be trimmed or enlarged by Japanese futons, the pine furniture shields should be used.

The main modules, seat and back have frames that are mounted by connecting two side walls in front and rear with boards. To elements that are located along, it will be necessary to strengthen the basis for the mattress, which has a cross-stap.

Figure 3. Dimensions of the billets that need to be prepared before starting work.

In fig. 2 You can see the drawings of the design with dimensions. And fig. 3 contains dimensions of the billets that need to be prepared before starting work.

Using the drawing and disk saw, you need to cut the material. Corners are recommended to be treated with a jigsaw, smoothding the edge of fine-grained sandpaper. Before starting the installation, the elements need to be covered with acrylic varnish, and then leave them for a while for drying. The side parts of the seat must be combined with the longitudinal boards, using 2 ducts planted for glue. Furniture screed will allow you to give the design additional rigidity. The same technology should be used to assemble the sofa backrest.

Hinged pairings need to be equipped with bolts and hexagon nuts. For longitudinal elements of the back and seats using screws and glue, it is necessary to strengthen the bars of 30x30 mm.

In the holes of longitudinal boards with a diameter of 10 mm, you need to install bushings that are borrowed from furniture sets. They should install M5X80 screws. Matching hinged pairing legs can be 80-mm screws. The planks must be fixed with a belt, for which it is necessary to press the clamps to the workbench of the segment, which will appear as a stop.

Seat frames and backs need to be mate. In order to obtain a durable sidewall connection, you need to glue bars and press them with clamps until the drying drying is completely drying. Transverse rails are installed on screws that must be strengthened one on both sides.

With the help of an independently prepared drawing, you can make any sofa, but cutting better entrust to the professionals of your business.

Sofa, corner, and even more so folding - the design is much more complicated than the bed. The fact is that it combines the features of frame and upholstered furniture. In addition, the sofa, in contrast to the same bed - the subject is not utilitarian. It is intended for a comfortable pleasant pastime and must also decorate the interior. And these functions are additional convenience and grace, require skill much more.

Sofa of any form - the project is complex. Its production begins with drawing development. And the estimated dimensions are far from the only factor that will have to be considered. The smallest list includes the following:

  • sofa dimensions - common and all of its parts;
  • angle of inclination of the back;
  • transformation mechanism if an unfolded sofa is assumed;
  • mechanism of extension of boxes or storage compartments device;
  • thickness and rigidity - seat, backs, armrests, pillows;
  • height legs.

In addition, it is necessary to at least approximately calculate the total load on the sofa - its own weight, weight of all users and dynamic load, and, accordingly, strengthen the frame elements properly.

The drawing includes the projection of all the working knots of the sofa, so that no ability to draw or know the knowledge of the relevant computer programs can not do.

You can use the finished scheme on the pages of sites. The working drawing at the same time must take into account all the above factors and include three projections of each module. At the same time, it is not recommended to change the size of the sofa or its parts: the design is designed for a certain load, when the dimensions change without taking into account the redistribution of the load, it will also lose both durability and reliability.

The only change that here can be introduced - the color and texture of the upholstery. Even use another material for filling is not always desirable, since the project is developed for seats and pillows with a certain rigidity.

If there is no experience in creating furniture, but there is a skill with a tree and soft materials, it is recommended to book a drawing of individual sizes, and the project is independently. Collect on the finished scheme work units and details are much easier.

Below you will find drawings and diagrams with dimensions that tell you how to make it yourself, for example for a kitchen or living room.

Materials and tools

After the drawing is designed, and determined to make furniture with their own hands did not fade, you can proceed to the selection of material.

Wooden coniferous breeds - 30 * 50 or 50 * 50 depending on the size of the design;

  • Chipboard - necessarily laminated, plywood - best birch, fiberboard for the bottom of the boxes;
  • sofa legs - at least 9 pieces;
  • the transformation or lifting mechanism is purchased in the store, taking into account the load-designed load. If retractable boxes are assumed, roller mechanisms will also need;
  • porolon, foam crumb, hollofiber, sintepon or any other soft filler. It is recommended to add non-woven material to the list, like the agrojective, which are paved in the foam rubber: thus prevent the material abrasion;
  • threads, upholstery fabric:
  • fastening - screws, nails, self-tapping screw and so on;
  • diverse glue - various adhesive compositions will need for different materials.

Wooden bar before use is treated with antiseptics. Plywood and chipboard do not need preparation.

Details can be painted independently from the sheet material, and you can order. In most building stores, such a service is offered. At the same time, the sheets are not only faster and better will be cut, since the professional instrument is more powerful default, but also to be treated with the edge.

The list of tools includes both mechanical and electrical mechanisms for the manufacture of "from scratch" or tugging a corner sofa with their own hands:

  • electric drill and screwdriver;
  • hand saw or hacksaw on wood, stub, clamp;
  • sewing machine for and processing edges of the fabric;
  • furniture stapler for upholstery.

Often we have old sofas, throw out that sorry, and look at them - unpleasant. Then you will help you know how to shelter the corner sofa do it yourself. Believe me, there is nothing difficult about it, and the sofa is obtained as new.

The next video will tell you how to drag the corner sofa with your own hands:

How to make a corner sofa do it yourself

The general assembly scheme is as follows:

  • collected from a bar of DVP and Porophalon, if a soft upholstery is assumed. Details Mirrietia reflect each other, they are not the same;
  • mount the frame of the left side;
  • collect the frame of the right side. The angular module, depending on the model, is part of one of the parts;
  • sofa with a selected cloth.

Making furniture with your own hands always takes a lot more time than in a workshop or workshop. This is connected with the manufacture of details of non-standard sizes, and with the conditions of attachment. Each of the nodes collected on the glue requires drying under pressure - in a clamp, and it takes no less than a day. However, it is this feature that provides greater strength of such products.

You can also take advantage of the following video when you decide to make an angular sofa with your own hands. It contains 3 options for homemade frames:

Soft

The transformation of the framework into soft is carried out at the last stage. First of all, it is necessary to make armrests, otherwise, the sidewalls of the model. Typical dimensions for them: height - 55 cm, length - 90 cm, width - 20 cm. Height is driven without legs, that is, only the sidewall itself. Dimensions can be both other, but it is important that they exactly match the parameters specified in the drawing.

  1. The base of the sidewall is cut from the chipboard, on top and bottom - along the length, the wooden bars are fasten with screws with a pitch of 20 cm. The hole for fasteners is dried with a diameter of 3 mm, the screw or self-tapping screw in the direction from the chipboard to the bar.
  2. The top and bottom of the armrest also cut out of the particle size and secure on wooden slats. Then installed and fixed vertical support bars - 3 pcs, in the upper and lower part of the sidewall. Fastening in the end of the bar with two self-draws. Get the semblance of a box with one sidewall, riding, bottom and open front wall with vertical elements.
  3. The remaining details of the "box" are cut out of the fiberboard and fix it with nails in increments of 10-15 cm. You can duplicate fasteners with glue.
  4. From the inside of the sidewall, where the seat will be located, the lining from the chipboard is fixed.
  5. All parties besides the rear and that part, where the pad is placed, it is covered with a thickness of 2 cm thick.

The second armrest is also manufactured, taking into account the fact that it is a mirror image.

For the production of the main part of the sofa - the left in this case, the effort will be needed more.

  1. From the chipboard, we cut the side part of the seat and back skews. The latter has a complex form, as it takes into account the angle of inclination of the back. Both elements fasten the plywood fragment, but so that the rear part of the seam between them remained not blocked.
  2. It is cut out two of the same details in the mirror reflection for the second part of the frame and also fasten. You can cut the sidewall entirely, but in this case the material consumption is significantly increased.
  3. The vertical bar is screwed to both sidewalls - it overlaps the part of the seam, which was left free. Then, to each sidewall in the end - necessarily on 2 screws, they record three crossbars on the back of the future product.
  4. The front axle connecting the upper corners of the "Seat" is screwed temporarily to one screw and without glue.
  5. The rear wall is reinforced by two vertical support bars. Vertical elements and a timber connecting the inclined parts of two sidewalls, tighten the rails.
  6. Collect the frame for the inclined part of the back - the support frame and 2 vertical rails. The fragment is inserted at an angle, and therefore so that it is tightly adjacent to the details of the already assembled design, the form of longitudinal bars corrected.
  7. The vertical bars of the inclined part and the bars of the back straight part are tightened by the rails.
  8. Collect the bearing frame of the seat. On 2, longer elements, the lining are fixed - fastening screws are at different heights, and then collected frame and enhances 3, not less transverse bars.
  9. The frame should be tightly included in the already assembled frame. To do this, weaken the temporary mount on the front timber, insert the frame, and then tighten the screws.
  10. Made and try the seat of plywood with a thickness of 8 mm. If the upholstery fabric is chosen dense - synthetic skin, for example, then in a plywood every 30 cm, the holes for ventilation are done. The seat is installed only after pasting foam rubber, synthetic tube and upholstery.
  11. On the side of the back, the corresponding FGP fragment is fixed. Then the whole "seat" and "back" are covered with foam rubber in 2 layers: first with a 4 cm thick, and then - 2 cm.
  12. For the bottom of the seat, the king is harvested - a detail of a chipboard, reinforced by bars. It is installed later, after the upholstery.
  13. The back of the back of the back is amplified by corner slopes. If the sofa is placed in the center of the room, then the back is overlapped by the chipboard.

Assembly of the left side, including an angular module, more complicated. As a rule, it is equipped with a lounge box and, moreover, can have a different form depending on the type of sofa. Collect the left side by the same scheme: first cut the sidewalls - lower and upper parts from chipboard, fasten plywood and wooden bar. Mounted all the blanks on the frame of the bar, are reinforced by vertical bars according to the drawing - at the corners it is necessary. If the design provides an outer angle, part here is collected on metal corners.

If the left part is lifting, or under it collect a storage box, then in this part of the sofa, it is the bottom of the chipboard. All internal parts of a drawer or storage box can be wrapped with a wear-resistant cloth.

The sequence of the assembly is different: here they first collect the lower part, and then make a frame for the back. The lifting mechanism, if it is envisaged, is mounted according to the instructions depending on its type. The collected frame is sealed with foam rubber - first a sheet of 4 cm thick, can be fragments, and then a whole piece of foam rubber 2 cm thick.

The next step is the cutting of matter and the upholstery of the sofa with a cloth.

  1. Measure the parameters of all parts that will be covered with matter. When plotting, the allowances for the seams and the allowance allowance and the lifesty of the seat are about 1 cm.
  2. Before the upholstery, each element of the sofa is wrapped with syntheps. With the contact of the fabric and foam rubber, the latter is noticeably flawed. Sinypron will warn the belt wear and add the seats and the back of the puff.
  1. On armrests, instead of a sintecon, the foam rubber is overlapped by agrovexectile, spunbond and other non-woven materials. Agrotekstil is tensioned on the foam rubber and bubbles with brackets. Then the case is put on the part, straighten and fixed with brackets.
  2. The backs, seats, kingu, and so on, taking into account the layer of the foam rubber, and also placed a layer of sintecon.
  3. 3 or more pillows are manufactured for the sofa back. The inner case is erased from a nonwoven canvas - the same spunbond, a foam crumb that is used as a filler with a layer of syntheps, hollofiber and more. An external case is made of upholstery fabric.

For kitchen

The corner sofa for the kitchen has its own characteristics. In most cases, it is not folding, although there are such options. The space under the seat is almost always used as a storage compartment with a folding lid. The corner kitchen sofa always stands on the legs, as in the kitchen on the floor, the dirt appears much faster and cannot be accumulated under furniture.

  1. The main supporting details are sidewalls. They require at least 7, or even more, and each is cut out of a solid plywood sheet with a thickness of at least 8-10 mm. You need two sidewalls for the right and left part of the sofa and at least three for the side module.
  2. The drawing collects a frame for each part separately. In fact, the sidewalls are bonded by a cross section of 40 * 40 mm, forming a frame for the seat, the bottom backup and the upper, on the front corner of the back.
  3. Then secure the details of the storage sections. They are cut from chipboard and enhanced at the corners of the bars. The bottom is also cut out from chipboard or plywood, as it is stored here not to be not light items.
  4. The angular module is assembled from three sidewalls, taking into account its shape - rectangular or rounded.
  5. You can do otherwise: to collect a straight angle seat and a smoothly curved back and the same back of three fragments of the chipboard on the frame of the bar. Details, except the back, cut out of plywood. All such a structure, which is covered with foam and inhabitable cloth, is fixed on the sidewalls of the left and right.
  6. Another specific detail is the folding seats. They are cut out in size from plywood at least 10 mm thick, mounted on a frame of a bar with a cross section of 25 * 25 mm, are covered with foam rubber and face with a cloth. Details are fixed to the sofa seats to the piano loop.
  7. The kitchen sofa is pretty hard, so here you use one layer of foam rubber on the seat and the back of a thickness of 40-50 mm. Before the upholstery, the foam rubber is tightened with nonwoven material.
  8. For trim, choose matter well-washable, inevitable dirt and fat - furniture upholstery, synthetic leather. The covers for the backs and seats are cut out with a breakdown on the seams and on the softness of the seat - not more than 1 cm. Matter is stretched into the part and fixed with the brackets first in the corners, and then along the entire length from the back side of the product.

Below you will find a video that will help you to make a simple, but a comfortable sofa for the kitchen:

From pallets

Pallet or pallets - a wooden box of decent dimensions 1 * 1.2 m and very small height - 12 cm. As a rule, the distance between the bottom boards reaches the width of the board itself or so. More opportunities are options with a solid bottom.

The manufacture of the sofa from the pallets is reduced to the assembly of structural elements - pallet, into a single whole required form and decorating it.

  1. Part of the design work is made before the assembly. Even if you wish to keep an authentic look, the boards need to be seized - grinding or simply sandpaper, and then open the product with a transparent matte varnish.

In addition, pallets can be painted, process the verses, perform "actions" or to climb with colored varnishes.

  1. The sofa seat consists of several pallets assigned to each other. The back is made of vertically standing pallets. The angle is formed by the simplest M-shaped docking. Fastening - self-tapping screws, screws.
  2. The seat of the seat is sewn with a sheet of plywood or chipboard. You can do otherwise: to carve out the part from the plywood, go to the foam rubber and cover with a synthet and cloth. Thus, a soft removable seat is obtained. You can use the most ordinary mattress and pillows in covers from dense, well-erasing fabric.
  3. Between pallets you can arrange solid sheets of chipboard and form shelves.

The option looks great on the cottages and open verandas, but will be worth it in modern urban interiors decorated in Loft styles, Industry, Avangard.

Photo of the corner sofa from pallets do it yourself

Making such a piece of furniture is something very difficult, especially if we are talking about a homemade corner sofa on a metal frame made with your own hands. But if the home master has mastered such a design, then now he can do any furniture for the apartment.

In contact with

From the aesthetic furniture in the house depends on the impression that makes up about the whole room, so it is very important to maintain it in good condition. It refers to the functional part of it, which is very often in use. In this regard, it is quickly wearing and loses not only its attractiveness, but also worse performs the assigned functions. However, in the conditions of financial instability, from which each of us faces from time to time, it is not so easy to replace it.

But there is a way out! If you can work with defined tools, you can make anything yourself. This will not only save money, but will give you a truly unique and unique!

Views

Create a sofa is independently easy. But first of all it is necessary to decide on its type and functionality. Depending on this, the design is selected. They are divided into and inexpose, and they distinguish such:


  • book;
  • ;
  • ;
  • picky;
  • other.

We offer you the schemes of the most common and popular. Also decide on the presence of storage spaces. Depending on how your facility is laid out, it is worth purchasing special mechanisms.

Tools and materials

In order to make a sofa manually, you will need certain tools. It is best to use those devices with which you are not for the first time, or practice. Before proceeding to creating furniture, make sure that you have such tools:

  • electrolovik;
  • hoven or Bulgarian with a wood disk;
  • drill;
  • ;
  • stapler construction;
  • other.

Materials that you need for the manufacture of such an important and overall object depends on its type and functionality. But in any case, you need to purchase:

  • ;
  • cutting board;
  • phaneur of different thickness;
  • upholstery fabric;
  • foam;
  • pVA glue;
  • self-tapping screw;
  • three-stage drill;
  • staples;
  • and other.

Parameters and quantities depend directly from the model manufactured. It is important that they are high quality and environmentally friendly. When working with a tree, pay attention to the quality of grinding. It is best to do it yourself. Choosing glue and varnish, do not buy materials containing toxic substances.





Nerablaset

A classic canape is a beautiful upholstered furniture that is not transformed. His design you will think about yourself. The drawing and scheme of the assembly of the model can be viewed below. They consist of:

  • legs;
  • seat:
  • soft back;
  • armrests.

The legs are made of timber or bought in the store already ready-made - plastic, iron or from another material. It is necessary to shoot down a rectangle with a lid of a board or chipboard, and then fasten the legs, as indicated in the diagram. Rear to attach a bar or board, covered fiberboard, or a sheet of chipboard.

In order for the product to be soft, foaming PVA foam rubble. Next, which is fixed using a stapler on the reverse side of the structure.

For the aircraft it is best susp. In this case, it is enough to simply cut the piece of the desired size, which will be placed on short sides. It is falling in foam rubber. It is important that the top of the hollow overlapped by the leaf bend. The next layer is the upholstery fabric. It is fixed at the junction of the best with the basis.

If you want to make a more functional model, you should apply another scheme. From the board or chipboard is gathering a P-shaped fragment. Inside the half of the moving mechanisms, the parts of which are attached to the collector assembled separately, which allows it to function easily and correctly. The seat for the seat is installed on top of the base. It is attached to her the back of the structure. Cover all this with foam rubber and cloth, as in the first case, or laid and.

Like the armrest, you decide for yourself. True, it is worth noting that its presence can add functionality if it is rectangular with a wide riding and, unlike side and end sides, will not be covered with the upholstery. In this case, the armrest can perform the role on which the book or a cup with tea is conveniently placed.

Ways to decorate

It is important that the furniture is not only functional, but also had an attractive appearance. The main role in decorating the choice of upholstery fabric plays. To date, a large variety of goods are presented on the market, among which are the most common.

The interior of any modern apartment, a private house involves installing upholstered furniture: beds, chairs or sofa. Previously it was assumed that the living room serves as a place where the sofa was located. Today, the developers are presented with such many sofas of different types, which in its functional characteristics and appearance they can accommodate almost any room, ranging from the kitchen and ending with the balcony.

The newly minted owner of the upholstered furniture often arises the question of how to collect a sofa with their own hands. The installation process itself does not imply the presence of a special kind of technical knowledge and skills. The equipment of any sofas implies the presence of a user manual in which the mechanism of how to do this is detailed.

But it is necessary to take into account the fact that the different shape and filler of soft details make certain adjustments to the overall picture of the assembly. Therefore, it is worth paying attention to what the sofas can be.

Forms of sofas and types of filler

Allocate the following types:

Direct - a popular option, often referred to as a classic sofa. Find those responsible for the room the necessary dimensions of such a sofa will not be difficult.

The corner is a spacious and execution in the form of the letter "r" the option that has practicality, saves space by writing the corner, and also combines the function of the bed.

Modular - a representative of a new generation of upholstered furniture, which does not have a fixed configuration. There are sections that are transformed and are compiled in accordance with the idea of \u200b\u200bthe owner of the sofa. At the same time, they can be bonded with each other, and simply assign to each other.

In the production of soft parts, two types of fillers are used, which determine the following varieties: spring sofas (with dependent and independent blocks) and foam-foam (they use polyurethane foam).

Spring sofas are heavier than porolone and when installed can cause a number of difficulties in connection with weight.

Assembling a straight sofa

If after purchasing the sofa, it was decided on its independent installation, then a certain sequence of actions and a mandatory study of the sofa assembly scheme is necessary. First you need to carefully, without damaging the upholstery, free from the package every item. After that, it is recommended for a while simply leave them in such a state so that the material can "assimilate" the humidity and temperature conditions of the room.

At this time, you can check the quantity and quality of the accessories that comes in the kit, as well as prepare the desired tool: screwdrivers may need a drill with the drills of the desired diameter, hexagons.

The next step is to fasten the legs, if any. It is necessary to do this for the simple reason that in the assembled form, the design will be less than chanting and much harder. In addition, it makes sense to free yourself a space for further work so that all the details and tools are in sight.

The corresponding sofa includes the main frame and additional elements (back, armrests, decorative components).

The main assembly process is carried out in this way:

We put fasteners, aligning the hole and inserting bolts, screws or screws in them, as provided in the manual. Next, neatly twist them. Similarly, connect the seat and back of the sofa. The design obtained at this step is the basis.

Then, on both sides, install armrests on the frame and all the decorative elements, if any. There are cases when the mounting holes were not visible because they were hidden for the upholstery. Then it should be carefully beaten. The instructions should be said about this.

In the last step, check the sliding mechanism if the sofa is equipped with them. His work should pass smoothly, without a screenshot and outsiders.

It is important to remember that the inner fastener makes sense to twist not until it stops, subsequently, if the sofa turns out to be mounted incorrectly, it will be easier to disassemble it. However, after completion, you cannot forget about pulling up all attachment nodes.

Corner sofa and nuances of its installation

The assembly of the angular sofa implies the connection of two or three parts, which are seats, backs and extended part. Any specialist will recommend collecting the large elements of the sofa first, and then small.

First of all, it is necessary to familiarize yourself with the design of such a sofa. It can be right-sided and left-sided, one of its part is longer than the other, the decomposition mechanism itself is different in different models; From these facts will depend on the sequence of assembly.

Rama, armrests, seats and backs - here are parts of the corner sofa, the connection of which requires the following steps:

  • First, the base, angular sections and armrests are attached with the help of support screws. Rollers are installed on the retractable part. All items must be strictly fixed.
  • With the help of screws, one of the armrests with the angular section are connected. It is necessary to check the stability of fixed elements.
  • The installation of the basic section and the back is carried out, and the box is connected to the second armrest, after which the assembled design is fastened with the corner section.
  • The rear wall is installed, fixed with armrests. It is necessary to check the stability of the resulting structure.
  • Finally, a rolling mechanism is attached to the guides installed in the base part.

There are angular sofas (Atlanta) bundled with a table that is attached to the side and performs the feature of the armrest. The assembly of the Atlanta sofa is carried out in such a sequence: first the transport fasteners are removed and the roll-up seat is shown fixed with a special focus, the screws are unscrewed with a screwdriver.

Next, the armrest is aligned with the back of the sofa and is fixed into two screws under the hexagon. Then, through the metal corner of the ottoman box and its wall on three screws pinned the back. A bar table, which simultaneously serves as the second armrest is screwed to the Ottoman for two screws under the hexagon. Thus, two modules are collected, subsequently they are tightened with the fasteners.

Assembling modular sofa

Each furniture manufacturer has its own design of modular sofas, only the plus remains unchanged that they can be collected and disassembled at their discretion. Another advantage of the modules is the fact that they themselves are often sold already in the mounted form, and the buyer is given the opportunity to combine them at their discretion.

But if the sofa equipment assumes the presence of a more complex module, it will be necessary to do a number of additional actions, taking into account the specifics of a particular model. Modular sofas are two types: sectional and transformable.

The sectional option implies a rigid connection of ready-made modules that the buyer chooses himself in the store itself. The possibility of combining is precisely at the pre-sale stage, when various layout options are considered. And there may be needed the drawings of the sofa assembly, which reflect all the nuances of possible combinations. Then, on site, the sofa is connected by the fasteners and remains in this form constantly.

A more interesting option is the transformable modular system. The number of purchased sections is unlimited, then any design is already formed. Initially acquired modular sofa when permuting sections can become a single bed or a set of chairs. In addition, sections can also be given a varied geometric shape: square, rectangular, round, etc.

Thus, the process of assembling the sofa is quite responsible occupation. But it is under the power of anyone who has the time, the necessary tool and the desire to do it with your own hands. In any case, there is always the opportunity to address professionals, the company's assedes that the sofa has been acquired, or to individuals providing installation services.

Photo process assembly sofa

Did you ever think about whether the manufacture of an ordinary sofa is possible at home, i.e. Own forces? At first glance, this question will seem not quite ordinary to us, because in any furniture store you can pick up a suitable sofa for every taste and color. But if you think about it, for example, that you have to put from furniture for seating to the same rest room in a bath or a country veranda, then the original question about the homemade sofa in the country house will not seem so strange. In this article we will tell how to make a sofa with their own hands from the utility material.

Sofa from Bruza

One of the variants of self-making sofa in the country involves the use of timber for its construction, which are often often sustained after the construction of utility rooms. In addition to these workpieces, the following material may also be needed:

  • falone sheets sold today in any specialized store;
  • zipper-zipper 210 cm long used for the manufacture of the cover;
  • three zippers of 70 cm, going to the manufacture of pillows;
  • any material like tapestry;
  • metal corner;
  • metal grid.

The main work on the assembly of the sofa at home should be started from the construction of the base (carrier frame) of the structure, for the assembly of which we use the above-mentioned timber. Very convenient for the manufacture of the frame, it may be a bar with dimensions of 70x210 cm; At the same time, the support legs for our frame can also be made from four small segments of this bar.

The second step towards achieving our goal is the manufacture of a reliable sofa back. Since initially this design option implies an avoidance of excessive complications of the design (not attempting to do something like an unfolding system), then we make the back of the same diagram on which the frame base of the sofa was made. Such a frame back should be sufficiently fastened on the basis with the help of thick-walled corners of the metal. The optimal angle of inclination of the resulting back will pick themselves on your own taste, but the main thing is that it does not turn out to be very cool (in order to avoid the feeling of discomfort).

At the next stage of our work, let's try to mount the support grid on the sofa frame, which would hold the seat cushion. For these purposes, a patex grid from metal beds, which were used by our grandfathers, were quite conspicuous (made sure for their own experience in the fact that, if desired, find such a grid is quite real and today). After reliable fastening of such a grid to a wooden base (through conventional metal brackets), it turns out exactly what is needed. Only you should not forget to fix the grid to cut into the longitudinal bars of the frame four transverse bars (it is best to produce in the method of grooves in spike with a planting for special glue).

I now turn to the manufacture of a soft upholstery for our design.


After that, there are three large cushions, covers for which are also made from stitched pieces of tapes from stitched together.

Sofa from finished shields

In the event that you are not sufficiently craftsmen in handling a tree and other materials - you are offered another way of making a sofa on your own. For its manufacture you will need:

  • two old door flaps;
  • metal brackets;
  • wooden hemps;
  • foam;
  • the cloth.

As the basis and the back of the proposed simplified design, two sashing of the wooden doors served as the foundation. All you need to do with them is only to clean them from dirt and handled using grinding.

Then you should cover them with several layers of paint, the color and texture of which are selected arbitrarily (or under the interior of the room, where your sofa will be located). You can finish the surface of the surface of the sash veneer "under the tree".

Firmly fix with nails one of the flaps on the wooden hemps of the appropriate size and adhere to it using metal brackets the back (second sash).

Then you can proceed to the manufacture of a mattress, for which the foam rubber carved in size should be seen any durable and coarse cloth (with a grinding or rotogo, for example). From above, such a seat can be covered with a high-quality cloth having an unusual color. Then put the finished mattress on the basis of the design and place several small pillows on it.

The improvised sofa of this type can well fit out not only in the interior of your country veranda, but also can decorate any other stench corner.

You probably paid attention to the fact that the basis of the independent arrangement of the sofa products considered by us is the manufacture of a reliable and strong bearing base (frame). This fact allows us to conclude that any other material that meets the specified basic conditions can be selected as a base.
