We tell how to make a lid with a canopy, a head board or construct a house that will completely close the well.
There are three main decisions, how to close the well in the country with your own hands: horizontal hatch, installed directly on a concrete ring, headband and a house with a roof and walls. The house and the headband can be made in the same way as the main building - the base is made of logs or bricks, and the roof is covered with boards or tiles. The roof is needed not only for beauty. It closes the well from garbage - dust and leaves that brings the wind. It is desirable that the rain does not fall inside - the well water is cleaner. In the deep well there is no harmful impurities contained in precipitation. If children play in the country, the door with the lock is simply necessary. Feeding inside, the child can drown. For the same reason, the door should be closed from pets. Another important function is to protect from cold, not allowing to form an ice crust in the well.

Possible solutionsHeat insulation
Options than to close the well:
- Open structures with lid and canopy
- The headband mounted on the neck
- House with walls resting in the ground
Possible solutions
There are three basic options.
- Horizontal lid mounted on concrete rings, brick or wooden base. The material serves a tree and metal. The hatch is made on the loops or in the form of a revealing flap. It is convenient to use it as a stand under the bucket when it is in a semi-open state. Luke must be blocked, so a built-in lock or loops is fixed under a canopy. Top usually put a canopy.
- The head board is a roof with walls, which is supported by the top of the well. This design closes the caravel - horizontal crossbar with a roller and handle. The crane helps to raise and lower the buckets fixed on the roller using the chain. So that the open concrete bottom look beautiful, it needs to be issued. Brick and logs do not need decoration. Close the well ring is easy - it is a reliable base and withstand any facing.
- The house with the walls fully closing the bottom. This solution is best suited for high-quality thermal insulation required to protect against freezing.
Heat insulation work
They are needed if the well is used all year round. At low temperature, water inside can freeze. It comes from the soil layers that are far below the line of freezing. In the middle strip, the ice rolls the top layer of the soil, penetrating the depth of about a meter. All that below is out of its reach. Threads driving out of depths warming the air with which the walls are in contact with, creating inside a warm microclimate. If you install the hatch from above, the microclimate will be easier to maintain, however, the external buildings do not solve the problem completely. Need comprehensive measures.Wooden structures do not need protection - they can be used all year round. The tree perfectly holds heat. But the reinforced concrete well should be closed. Consider the scheme of its insulation in more detail.
Solar scheme
- The design is split and sealed - close up the cracks with cement-sandy mixture, and then covered with rubberoid on bitumen mastic.
- The next insulating layer is made of a porous material, poorly conductive temperature. Suitable polystyrene foam. There are rounded products that are specifically produced for concrete rings and corresponding to them in size. They are attached to the glue either on a dowel-nail. The top is closed with polyethylene. If smooth rectangular plates are used, from tightening brackets or scotch. Do not compress them too much - they will easily break.
- One of the options for isolation is polyurethane foam. He is sprayed from the cylinder, closing all empties. On top of it, you can make an additional layer of foam.
- So that moisture does not accumulate in the insulation, it is closed tightly with a polyethylene film. At the joints, the adhesives are made of 10 cm and rush them with assembly scotch. Then the drinks fall asleep and smash.
How to make a design from a lid and a canopy
If the well is warmed properly, it will not freeze, and it can be used all year round. The outer walls in this case should also be insulated. The answer to the question is to close whether the well on the castle depends on whether children are in the house. It is important whether the village is guarded. At the unguarded territory, attackers can make the attackers and kidnap the pump, located inside under hatch.What materials are used
- Tree or its analogues - LDSP and plywood.
- Metal.
- Plastic.
The last option is inferior to the previous strength and decorative qualities.
Wood cover
Most often used boards from a natural array - they are easier to process. They are well tolerated cold and mechanical loads. It is better to choose an oak, a lamp or birch.
For work, you will need a billet cross section 2x15 cm and the bars of 4x4 cm. Of these, we will rush the shield in size of a concrete neck. Brucks are located both from above and below, leaving a smooth surface outside.
The natural array will quickly come into disrepair if it is not treated with antiseptics and not covered with varnish. Also suitable paint for street work. To change the shade of wood, apply toning darkening varnishes. The treated and dried parts are cut down in length and are connected by two bars. Fastening on self-drawing will last longer than ordinary nails.
To create a round lid, on the surface of the shield drawing markup. Its center is driven by a small nail and tie a rope with a pencil. With this circula, you can accurately accumulate the circle. The radius depends on the length of the rope.
Cut the curved outline and cut the hole under the door is more convenient than the electrolovka. Sections are treated with antiseptics and varnish. There should be no open sections. The door is locked up the same as the lid, but instead of bars it is better to take narrow planks. Fittings - handles and loops - should have protection against corrosion. It is best suited for products from wrought iron, aluminum and galvanized steel.
Boards can be copped with the front side by iron forged stripes stylized under the antique.
The shield is mounted on the base with anchors, punching it through. There is another way. Bonds fasten with steel wide, uniformly located on the inner circle. Before closing a well made of concrete rings or logs, you need to check whether it will endure fasteners. If the material is sat down, it is strengthened with solution and reinforcement. Perhaps the upper ring will have to be replaced with a new one.
Metal
It is welded from a steel corner, tubular and p-shaped profile. Frame can be round or square. To make a circle, it is easier to use the corner. It is put on the horizontal side and make cuts on it with a step of how much centimeters, allowing you to bend. To connect the details, use welding and screws. The first option is better because the fasteners are not noticeable and the space does not occupy.
To assemble a square frame, you need to cut four profiles and connect them. The lower horizontal shelves are laid on the corners of the mustache or cut down with a stouch under 45 degrees.
The bottom of the frame is covered with boards or a sheet of chipboard and installed on a concrete ring. In the bottom shelf of the profile, holes for anchors drill and assemble.
The lid is manufactured in the same way as the lower part. Its from the inside are filled with thermal insulating materials, and on top are trimmed with wood or plywood. It should be a little less major frame to enter it when closed.
How to collect a canopy
It holds on two supports fixed on the upper part of the neck or flowing into the ground. The first option is preferable. This design is more compact. The bottom does not need to be protected from dirt moisture.
As a rule, wearing wooden poles or wide boards. They are installed on them: a single, double or more complicated. Her rafters hold it. The simplest solution is two bars located under the tilt and forming one skate. They are combined with a massive skate located between the racks. If the series consists of two elements forming two skate, they are connected at the bottom with a horizontal jumper serving the rigidity rebier.
The rafter is placed by a crate consisting of plates perpendicular to the rows of carrier elements. The trim serve ordinary roofing materials. It is better to choose lungs and plastic - for example, bitumen tiles. It looks good from the lacquered array.
Racks can be made of wrought steel. It is not subject to corrosion and tolerate mechanical loads well. Details are made according to individual sizes.
How to make an indoor well on the cottage with the headband
The basis serves as a frame of a tree or metal. Racks and rafters do not need. The design is much simpler.
The bottom of the frame is collecting the same as in the previous version. We attribute triangular sidewalls to it. The ends of the details are cut with a stouch below the desired angle. From above the sidewall connect the skate.
The resulting inclined edges are wearing plywood or boards. Then lay roofing materials. The sidewalls are lining with clapboard or siding. It is desirable that the coating is combined with the finish of the country house.
From one side cut the hole for the door and hang it on the loop. Inside need a horizontal coating to put a bucket. Does not hinder and locking hatch.
How to make a design closing well
It is not difficult to build such a house. The walls are collected from bricks, logs, boards or metal framework. It does not experience great loads, so it is better to use a lightweight aluminum profile. The house can be made round, polygonal or square. The profile snacks well and takes any form.
It is desirable to fix the frame on the concrete floor, but this is not necessary. It is not necessary to connect with the playground on which it is installed. The base must be smooth. If his relief is constantly changing, the gaps will be visible at the bottom. The walls of the frame consist of profiles forming the perimeter. Horizontal parts located along the edges from above and below, in the corners are connected by vertical. So that the covering is better to hold, put additional vertical struts.
The frame is trimmed by plywood or moisture-resistant sheets of plasterboard. They can be distinguished from the usual green color. Gypsum soundlock is well bend, but with a small radius it is better to cut narrow vertical blanks and connect them together. For decorations, the facade plaster, tile, siding, wood, decorative and real brick are used. There are polymer flexible sheets that imitate brick or stone laying. They are perfect for rounded surfaces.
