Instructions for the construction of the two-level stretch ceiling

If you want to hide the defects of your main ceiling and simultaneously add "flavor" to its own interior, a two-level stretch ceiling - what you need.This original and unique decorative design can be installed in the home.Main strictly follow a few steps:

Duplex suspended ceiling with his hands

1. Preparatory.For starters need to develop employee guideline sketch of the Guidance at work, good and flexible PVC plastic film allows you to translate any design intent.

sketch stretch ceiling

sketch should be functional and appropriate.So, in a room whose interior is characterized by brevity, it will be completely unnecessary complex form of the ceiling structure.Sizes, boundaries and the location of each level of the ceiling should be clearly defined.What will be the key?Which will act?Of course, while not dispense with the diagonal measurement and perimeter areas, determining its area, and, moreover, places lighting arrangement.

surface preparation ceiling

Further steps - direct preparation of the ceiling surface of the work: it is removed from the old finish and exfoliated sections of the old plaster.Also from cement chipping clean floor slab.If your ceiling is too serious defects, then check out the article - how to seal cracks in the ceiling.

Mounting supporting structure

If you decide to make the suspended ceiling with your hands, we advise you to pre-read our article - two-level ceiling of plasterboard with their hands, becausethis will allow you to better understand the technology of erection of a two-level ceiling, as well as recommend to read the article about the construction of the ceiling of plasterboard.

It begins with the definition of the boundaries of the section level.To apply it to the surface of the base of the ceiling sufficiently thick marker.Then along the marked lines attached aluminum profiles with the help of punch and dowels.

Fastening metal profiles to the wall and ceiling

Moreover, if the profile is fixed on the curve, he made an incision on metal scissors at intervals of 3-4 cm. Closes the end surface between the upper and lower level strip of plastic.At the same time its thickness should be about 10 cm: a smaller deprive the entire structure stiffness, and most - flexibility and elasticity, which complicate the construction of the curved frame sections.In the breadth of the impact of its planned height of the second level.In addition, such a band, when fixing his to the aluminum profile it requires further strengthening.

To make the shape of a bend metal profile cut with scissors or clippers, metal

Otherwise, if the material is stretched, there is a section of the strip is screwed in the unfastened inside a second-level space.

Screws for securing the ceiling

solve this problem helps to plant along the wooden strip bars, do not exceed the height of the bandwidth.The number of bars is determined by:

• Configuration - the more complex the shape contours of the protruding level of the ceiling, the more bars will need,
• length of the dividing line - the value of it is directly proportional to the number of installed bars, the ideal distance between them is 50 cm

.fastening strip for bars made using screws.And to cap screws were not allocated under the canvas ceiling, leaving a dark point, it is advisable to cover them with epoxy putty and clean.There is one more option to simplify the assembly: the use of plastic is not the whole band, and its pieces, with a mandatory fixing of wooden plates or screws.When this plate should not exceed the width of the strip will overlap the joints where a 5 cm in both directions.

In this article, we will not dwell on the construction of a framework for a two-level ceiling, because it is all about the construction of the frame and the cladding of the ceiling plasterboard we have already mentioned - it is you will be able to look at our site, but be sure to pay attention to below that of theit represents the framework and how does the frame paneling gispokartonom.

Installation baguettes - brackets, fixing a ceiling painting

Installation baguettes fixing ceiling painting

This process goes on the walls and on and carried out in several ways:

1. at a basic level, starting from the walls, in the lowest corner of the need to withdraw approximately 4 cm from the ceiling and put a mark.Further, by means of the water level of this mark is transferred to the other wall;
2. If a stretched canvas ceiling to install the internal illumination, the ceiling drops even lower, because the need to take into account the height of the lighting apparatus;
3. At the second level, originating from the walls, moldings position markings depends on the height of the level.

material for the baguette is an aluminum or plastic profile.When a large area of ​​a stretch ceiling is better to use aluminum brackets: they have greater rigidity and reliability.The optimal interval between screws is about 10 cm in the corners it is reduced to 5 cm.

fastening brackets installed along all sides of the room.At each level of tension ceiling needs a range of baguettes, with baguettes location of the second level should be such that the plastic construction completely closed material additional ceiling surface.

Scheme mounting tension ceiling

process of mounting tension pototna

It all depends primarily on the material used:

• polyvinylchloride fabric is taken at 10% less than the size of the room.However, given the fact that the material must be heated to 700 ° C by means of a heat gun, independent of its installation is highly undesirable;
• When choosing PVC fabric cloth need to take care of the allowance - 15 cm on each side.However, the heating in this case is not required, and the excess cut off at the end of a tension that just can be done by hand.Doing this is simple.First, focus on the first level.

When mounting the two-level ceiling are working first with the first level and maintained from any angle.Starts Construction trowel, and with the help of ceiling painting dressed in a baguette.A similar effect occurs in the opposite corner.The material is mounted in the middle of each side wall.And in each case between a pair of assigned seats stretched web in the middle.Gradually tensioning process continues, and the interval between the web fixing points decreases.At the end of the web is fixed in a baguette by special plates, and pulled the second level of the ceiling surface in a similar manner.

Installation of lighting elements.There are two possibilities:

1. elements are cleaned inside, and then they have to be installed before they happen tension,
2. elements are ejected, and then have to carefully cut through the ceiling and pasting the plastic inserts in the place to mount the lamp.

independently establishing a two-tier suspended ceiling it is necessary to consider that in this case, the manufacturer of ceiling paintings removed any responsibility.The very same plant will have to spend very carefully, taking into account every detail, otherwise you may need to complete removal of the design and conduct of the work again.
