The main element of the system is the tape itself. aluminum thickness here 0.4 mm, the sides of a square size of 300 mm.

Along the perimeter rim is bent, it is needed to fix the tape in the guide.

All such material, regardless of the manufacturer, painted at the factory, these polymer inks are not afraid of moisture and temperature extremes.

If you have a laser level, you expose it to the ceiling height and planned using the jingle (namelovanny cord), spend the horizon.

For lack of such a device, you will need to:

1. Determined by gidrourovnya (it is shown in Scheme under №1) lowest (piled) in the room corner;
2. In this corner, measure from the actual ceiling of the distance to the ceiling and put a label;
3. Then using gidrourovnya move that label to all the other corners of the room;
4. After that, take the skip (№3) and connect all your labels in a single circuit;
5. Immediately identify and mark the center of the room, it is useful to you later.

L-profile measure out and cut it with scissors, metal.

On block walls need to drill a hole puncher, insert the plastic anchor and again drive the screw.

Guides in closed systems are mounted in only one direction parallel to each other.

Dimensions squares (cassettes) 300x300 mm, and thus the guide we will install with step.

To do this, we note the ceiling space for the guide. In this case, not so important, you'll mount the guide along, across or diagonally across the room.

Try to stand so that it is as small as possible joint profile, but rather they were not there at all. As a rule, it is across the room. Installation diagonally requires experience, so that amateurs for it is better not to take.

This is because the cassette itself during installation will protrude above the edge guide by 5 mm.

Installing the coffered ceiling is from the center to the edges, which is why I recommended to lay out at once to determine the center of the room.

After the cassette is inserted, it can be moved along the guide, thereby accurately adjusting at Meta.

In most cases, the extreme number of cassettes you need to prune.

For this, first measure the distance from the vertical wing of the L-profile, to the edge of the penultimate tape.

Such ceilings are usually installed pinpoint spotlights.

To cut through the smooth hole under a spotlight to buy a round crown for electric drill with a drill in the middle.

The price for such a crown is low, but at home this tool is always handy.

The solution is simple: cut a hole of the crown, that is, and then bring it to the desired diameter of the metal scissors.

By the way, all wiring must be mounted in advance and lay in a plastic or metal ripple, the wires must not lie on the harness elements.

The latter is inserted into the cartridge of the penultimate row, since a number of extreme cropped sector already fixed retainers.

Instructions similar: insert the cartridge into the grooves guide and lightly tapping chuck it into place.

Sometimes, for repair or inspection just need to dismantle part of the ceiling, but the smooth surface of the knife is not poddenesh can ruin the tape.

There is an excellent output:

Take the usual suction cup, soak it, and pressed to the tape, pull the tape from the edge of the groove.

This way you can get any tape other than those installed near the walls (there are tabs).

Cassette ceilings can be arranged as you like, and the cassettes themselves may be not only metal, there are a few decent options, which I will discuss later.

So, if the plane is assembled from the different sections, the first is desirable to make a sketch. Just take graph paper and transfer the ceiling plan on paper in a convenient scale.

Keep in mind that the size of the cassettes in the vast majority of open constructions 600x600 mm.

marking technology and mounting L-profile along the perimeter of the room is no different from the previous one, but in the L-profiles provides the possibility of continuous connections:

• As you can see in the photo the edge profile on both sides have a slight bend in a couple of millimeters;
• To make the connecting segment to cut a piece of the profile of Dina about 50 mm;
• It bends a piece cut off on both sides and rounded corners make;

• To connect the two adjacent L-profiles, you need to insert our clipped segment bends in these profiles, as in the grooves.

Now we need to set the load-bearing structures, which will be installed and the tape:

• Measured from the adjacent wall size at the cassette according to the plan;
• Pull cords, which are mounted on suspensions and installed carrier strip;
• For this purpose we exhaust screw from above and from under walling L-profile stretch the cord;

• Fasten hangers to the ceiling with screws and suspended at the correct height bracket profile.

Here are some nuances:

• The guides in an open system are made in the form of an inverted letter "T";
• Unlike closed system intermediate hanger is not used. The lower part of the spring suspension is bent and engages the hole in the profile, as in the photo;

• Near-wall clearance between the L-profile and the carrier profile have T. T-profile overlaps the L-wing profile.

If in a closed system there is only longitudinal rails, which are inserted into the cassette, the open design need to install cross T-sections.

Size 600 mm crossbars in conjunction with longitudinal guides we get a square of 600x600 mm, the size of a standard cassette.

As longitudinal rails and cross members, the edges are equipped with special locks.

There is nothing complicated at all: take a square cartridge, pushes her into the void, and gently lowered onto the shelves of T-profiles.

Nonstandard cassettes just trimmed around the edge in size and are also inserted into the cells.

On the left in the diagram shows an assembly layout and cluster structures, the same markings listed key elements.

In addition, the video in this article in detail shows an installation of mixed coffered ceiling. That is, in an open system inscribed fragments closed coffered ceiling.

Furthermore there is still aluminum galvanized steel tape.

The thickness of the metal in steel tape also does not exceed 0.5 mm, these false ceilings are cheaper, but they weigh a little more.

Metal is an excellent choice for kitchen, services, and other similar premises, because it is not only indifferent to moisture, but also easy to clean.

Despite the relatively low cost of plaster tapes are not very popular.

Firstly, the gypsum material is quite heavy, and secondly, he is afraid of water.

Glass tape - it's beautiful and always original. Under such ceilings are very conveniently placed lighting, and if still somehow decorate yourself tapes, you will get a real masterpiece.

Nothing particularly outstanding in these ceilings not. The main advantages are considered to be low price and good sound insulation.

For offices and administrative buildings is not that the most popular option barely.

"Armstrong" the most well-known model of such ceilings is considered.

Acrylic tape - this is a relatively new material. These panels can be both colored and transparent.

At the same aesthetic data acrylic lighter than glass, and therefore, on the suspension can be saved.

Cassette ceiling made of wood - the elite, as a rule, they are made to order and are very expensive.

In such constructions are made of wood not only the tape, but all the guides.

For such panels can easily hide not only the ventilation system, but also the fire alarm.

In residential homes and apartments, such panels are rarely used, as a rule, is an office option.

Such ceilings look very impressive, with their room will look much bigger in size.

Mirror coating may be applied to aluminum, acrylic and glass tape.

This model is a cell with a mesh size of 75x75 mm. Such a cell is assembled from metal profiles on the basis of mother-father.

The apartments' Grilyato "is extremely rare, so the ceiling was originally developed for industrial premises and offices.

Extremely popular right now are mixed versions of false ceilings.

From a technical point of view, their installation is much more difficult to mount conventional designs, but they look very impressive.

Quite simply, the standard suspension, cassette dimensions as standard, you only need to come up with the original layout and choose a pattern that different types of cassettes.
