Precautions
-
Material of the wall
In the interior layout, the load-bearing wall will be marked by thick black lines. That also means the main structure. When you install the wall niches, remember to avoid these areas. Prevent to damage the structure.
-
Location of the wall
In general, the exterior walls of a house are load-bearing walls. The walls which are shared with neighbors are also load-bearing walls. The non-load-bearing walls are mostly used in the bathroom, kitchen, storage, and corridors.
-
Sound judgment
Knock the wall, if the sound is empty or echo, which means the wall is a non-load-bearing wall. On the other hand, the sound of the load-bearing wall is thick.
-
Thickness judgment
If the load-bearing wall is a brick wall, the thickness is 24cm or more, the thickness of the concrete wall is 16-20 cm.
Installation method

- The thickness of the wall is at least 30 cm. The depth of the wall niches is about 15 to 20 cm.
