How to make a false ceiling : simple installation rules

main recommendation: Preparing to install a suspended ceiling

main problem repair ceilings - surface roughness, surface roughness, the presence of joints between concrete slabs, crumbling plaster.Modern construction techniques allow to avoid such hassles by installing a suspended ceiling.There is a variety of materials for its implementation.A common option is considered drywall that has a flat surface and durability of use.

Start ceiling installation should take place in the preparation of foundations for the repair.The presence of wallpaper, plasterboard, crumbling plaster must be removed.It is important to determine the size and height of the new ceiling level (as far as it falls from the original).As established in the course of the measurement parameters to make a mark and once again carefully calculate the ceiling installation.Acceptable height - an average of 15 centimeters:

- cornice - 80 mm

- Niche - 70 mm

This spacing is sufficient to carry out the wiring and connect the backlight.

Required tools and construction tools

will be needed:

• Layers of drywall
• profiled strips
• Rack profile,
• Self
• Suspensions
• butt and cruciform "nails" to connect the metal sheets
• level
• Means for walls (plaster)
• Punch
• tool for smoothing the surface of the plastered walls, fit the machine with sandpaper

Step ceiling installation manual plasterboard

is important to follow the sequence:

1. Measure the height of the room.If you wish to mount additional lighting design need to add on to the resulting height of 3 cm.The gap between actual sheets of plasterboard and blocks overlap - an average of 7 cm.
2. If the level is not the same in different parts of the room, in the most lower right corner should note height.At this level, should draw a line around the perimeter of the room.

important to note that the level of the standard will not give accurate results.Better use gidronivelir or leveling laser parameters.

1. Through mount screws and other fasteners, the gap between 0,3-04 meters.
2. In between 60 centimeters in the lateral metal profiles, do the risks.Prepare pieces of rack-mount brackets in the size of minus 1 cm from the width of the room.
3. Embed transverse profile strips in the direction of movement of ticks.Strengthen their self-tapping screws.

1. The profile screw for fastening drywall hangers.
2. A finished design metal profiles to hold the electric cables that will later are hidden under the drywall.It requires a separate electric wiring: wire for chandeliers or lamps.They need additional profiled strips, in order to avoid stress on the structure and its destruction.
3. formed on the profiled grille ceiling begin to attach sheets of plasterboard.

Note: You must install the sheets on the chaotic scheme, but on the principle of a chessboard.This will create a uniformity in the joints.

1. cut using saws or punch a hole for chandeliers.Output through wire.

1. folds and joints drywall sheets "grimiruyutsya".The process of putty takes time and effort.It is important to observe the uniformity in applying putty, without leaving air spaces in the wall seams and sharp transitions.After drying is finished to putty the ceiling surface it covers primer.There
2. painting surface.
3. in pre-drilled holes integrated lighting, consisting of spotlights.Through the hole stretch cables and connected to the LED strip.Next powered lights.

suspended ceiling is ready!It is important to follow the basic principles and do not neglect safety rules.A detailed and clear description of the installation of suspended ceilings with their hands, and the backlight can be viewed on a video in the next tab:
