Let $\mathcal{H}$ and $\mathcal{K}$ be infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert spaces and $\text{Lat}\,\mathcal{H}$ the lattice of all closed subspaces oh $\mathcal{H}$. We describe the general form of pairs of bijective maps $\phi ,\,\psi :\,\text{Lat}\,\mathcal{H}\,\to \,\text{Lat}\,\mathcal{K}$ having the property that for every pair $U,\,V\,\in \,\text{Lat}\,\mathcal{H}$ we have $\mathcal{H}\,=\,U\,\oplus \,V\,\Leftrightarrow \,\mathcal{K}\,=\,\phi \left( U \right)\,\oplus \,\psi \,\left( V \right)$. Then we reformulate this theorem as a description of bijective image equality and kernel equality preserving maps acting on bounded linear idempotent operators. Several known structural results for maps on idempotents are easy consequences.
