Currently, many are beginning to think about how to decorate their apartment. And the ceiling in this business is by no means the last or even the penultimate place. Therefore, if you want your home to take on a spectacular look, then you should think about how the ceilings appear. Currently, suspended structures have gained wide popularity. And this is not surprising. The easiest way to transform a boring interior design is to create a new rack ceiling. Do-it-yourself installation can be carried out both in the living room and in the public (restaurant, pool, gym, etc.). In addition, slatted ceilings are the surest solution for rooms with high humidity.
Advantages of Slatted Ceilings
In the production of slat ceilings, aluminum is used, which is not subject to the formation of rust. He is also not afraid of leaks. In addition, it is quite durable and at the same time lightweight material. The design of such a design idea is quite simple (panels and suspension system). In addition, it is quite easy to do the installation of the rack ceiling with your own hands.
Features rack design
In the manufacture of panels aluminum is used without alloys with a thickness of half a millimeter and a length of about four millimeters. The width of the panels themselves can vary from 50 to 200 mm. In some cases (when you need to create a unique design for an individual order, for example), insert panels are used that contrast in color with the main panels. For suspended ceiling ceilings use perforated panels. In a complex with a suspended design, most often they go: a wall corner, a tire and a suspension. This is all that is needed in order to make a rack ceiling. DIY installation is quite simple - the main thing is to know how to make it.
Mounting
Installation should begin with the installation of a wall corner around the perimeter of the room. Before this, you need to do the markup using the hydraulic level. There must be a distance of more than 13 cm between the
ceiling floor
slabs and the suspended rack structure. To fix the wall corner, you can take ordinary screws and fix the corner with a step of 5 cm. Then, the anchor location should be noted on the floor plate. Suspensions will be attached to it (a supporting profile will be held on them). The standard size of the anchor is 0.6 cm in diameter and 4 cm in height. Install suspensions strictly on the same level, so as not to spoil the view, which subsequently takes a rack ceiling. Do-it-yourself installation in the next step consists in securing the suspension profile to the suspensions. To adjust to the desired level, the suspension rises / falls with the help of a "butterfly".
The final stage
So, we have a practically finished rack ceiling, do-it- yourself installation is almost complete. It remains to fix the panels themselves on the supporting profile. First you need to fix the wide panels with the help of special hooks, and then insert the narrow ones.
In conclusion
As you can see, there are practically no difficulties in installing such a design. Therefore, if you want to make a spectacular interior design, then you should pay your attention to the aluminum rack ceiling. The price for it, moreover, is not so high.
