ceiling in the bathroom is made of aluminum components. They have a special coating that not only protects against moisture, but also allows you to give the surface any desired shade.
But if the price question is significant for you, then you can perform a rack ceiling in the bathroom using plastic lamellas. The assortment here is also quite diverse.
Depending on the texture of the ceiling, lamps are selected. The glossy surface reflects light well, therefore, if you do not need additional glare, it is better to use matte slats.
The lath slats presented in construction stores have a maximum length of 6 m. The width of the laths can be different. The narrowest - from 5 cm, and the widest can reach 25 cm.
It is worth considering that the lamellas are rectangular or rounded.
The surface of this building material may be hollow or perforated. There are also two types of rack ceilings: open and closed. In the first version, there are gaps when joining the rails, if necessary, they can be closed with special inserts. The closed slatted
ceiling in the bathroom is made of slats, which have additional protrusions in the form of a “tongue”. They snap tightly and do not require additional inserts.
When buying a rack ceiling, check the set of fasteners that is necessary for proper installation. It is better to purchase the entire list from one manufacturer, so that all elements are guaranteed to be combined with each other.
The rack ceiling in the bathroom can include both main and intermediate panels. It depends on the design you have chosen. The entire surface can be sustained in the same color scheme or have completely different shades. White lamellas can be combined with chrome or gold color inserts.
Note that such a ceiling can be mounted independently. If suddenly you do not yet know how to make a rack ceiling in the bathroom, use the information that can be found on the Internet. And if she did not help to thoroughly understand the intricacies of the process - invite experts.
In any case, you should know that for fastening the lamellas, tires are used that are fixed with suspensions. Having determined the necessary height of the future ceiling, they attach a wall corner. To fix the fixtures, it is also necessary to provide suspensions. After the necessary number of suspensions is placed, we proceed to fixation of tires. How much tires are needed is calculated based on the ceiling area and the distance between them. The gap should not exceed 1 m. After mounting the mounting tires we proceed to the lamellas. We insert the rails, snapping them into the tires.
