What Are Suspended Ceiling Grids?
Suspended ceiling grids are secondary ceiling structures that hold ceiling tiles in place within a grid framework. Made from robust materials and featuring components like main runners and cross tees, these systems create stable and secure ceiling grid systems for various applications.
The grid allows for tile placement and exposed grid layout, making maintenance easy and looking neat. These ceilings hide wiring, air conditioning ducts and other infrastructure while providing easy access for repairs and upgrades.
Components of a Suspended Ceiling Grid
A typical suspended ceiling system consists of:
- Main Runners – The primary beams running across the ceiling.
- Cross Tees – Secondary beams that intersect and connect the main runners, forming the grid.
- Ceiling Tiles – Panels within the grid, available in various finishes and sizes to suit your style.
- Wall Angles – L-shaped perimeter pieces that anchor the grid to the walls for extra stability.
Ceiling Tiles for Suspended Ceilings
The choice of ceiling tiles is crucial to the functionality and style of your suspended ceiling. From simple to intricate designs, you can customise the look and performance for residential and commercial spaces.
