design Undoubtedly, having erected on the ceiling a structure in the form of a box, the developer receives not only flattering reviews from friends and relatives about the incomparable interior of the room, but other, equally important advantages.

To achieve this, can be plastered with or even leveled using a putty. The fabrication of the framework for the ceiling construction is performed using metal profiles. With their acquisition, you will not have any problems, because they are sold in each construction market or in specialized stores. Please note that in no case should not "reinvent the wheel".In other words, use only factory materials, and not what you have at hand. So you not only take care of the design aesthetics, but also make it safe. After the frame has taken its rightful place and is securely fixed, it is possible to start working with with plasterboard. First of all, it is necessary to cut the workpieces according to the dimensions of the box. By the way, after the workpieces are ready, make sure that all holes for the fixtures are made.
Algorithm for installing a drywall duct on the
ceiling Previously, we proposed general provisions for the manufacture of such a ceiling structure as a box. If you strongly decided to perform the installation yourself, here's the step-by-step work plan:
- Layout and preparation for work. The first thing is to move all the dimensions of the future box to the ceiling. To do this you will need a tape measure and a construction pencil.
Warning! Do not forget to take into account the dimensions of the metal profiles during the marking process!
- Fastening of profiles. When the markup is finished, your profiles are attached to the profiles. Directly mounted guides. In order to produce fasteners, you will need a puncher, dowel-nails and a hammer. By the way, the standard and suitable drill diameter for this work is 6 mm.
- Manufacture and installation of hangers. With the help of scissors for metal, hangers of the required size are cut. Then they are attached to the previously installed guide profiles with the help of self-tapping screws. In the same way, the lower part of the box is mounted.
- Do not forget about the installation of communications. This is done, of course, before you sew up the structure with plasterboard. So, electrical wiring and other elements of communications are laid.
- The finished structure of the profiles is closed with plasterboard, which subsequently shpaklyuetsya and painted. By the way, do not forget that all corners of the ceiling structure must be protected with a special perforated corner.
