Ceilings that used to be simply a structural element have been thrust into the spotlight with the rise of aluminum ceiling systems. Designs that could only be imagined previously are now a reality, and today’s aluminum ceiling systems offer unparalleled flexibility and customization for your project.
Featuring customizable components for quick and easy installation, the modern drop ceiling creates convenience and peace of mind in any space.
These 9 reasons to choose an aluminum ceiling system are sure to inspire and excite.
Aluminum ceiling systems come with a range of customizable components that allow you to perfectly tailor the ceiling to your space. This illustration shows the various components of an aluminum ceiling system. Customization options include integrated InLine LED lighting, LED backlighting, and a frosted or Soft Sound acoustic backer.
The aluminum ceiling panels, such as the Saiyi pictured here, use a torsion spring system that allows them to be quickly installed in the torsion grid. This also means that there is easy access to structural components and building integrations in the ceiling.
2. Convenient Access to Infrastructure
Much of a drop ceiling’s appeal is the ability to access infrastructure elements that are in the space between the structural ceiling and the drop ceiling. An aluminum ceiling system, like aluminum ceiling, makes this access even more convenient.
The concealed spring panels are easily removed from the torsion grid to reveal the interior workings of the ceiling. With this ease of access, repairing wires, fixing a plumbing leak or servicing the aluminum ceiling system becomes less stressful.
3. Easy Installation
Aluminum ceiling grids are often used in large spaces since they are fast and easy to install. The quick concealed spring attachment is used across standard ceiling grid systems to provide unparalleled convenience. This means that rather than waiting for a traditional drywall ceiling to be completed, you’ll be able to complete new construction or renovations faster. All while incorporating functional elements like lighting, fire safety.
In the event of a water leak or other damage either to the aluminum ceiling system or the building elements housed above it, repairs and replacements are quick and easy.
If a panel is damaged, it can be taken down with a new one without disrupting the rest of the design. The same goes for a frosted or acoustic Soft Sound. If it’s a simple matter of needing to clean up a water leak, the aluminum ceiling panels can be removed and cleaned before being replaced.
6. Perfect for Outdoor Applications
An aluminum ceiling grid system is perfect for both indoor and outdoor applications. Outside, whether used in a breezeway or entrance, it makes a beautiful and functional statement. Backlighting or InLine lighting can be integrated to help light the area in an aesthetically pleasing way that keeps the focus on the design.
Aluminum ceiling grids can of course be installed on ceilings, but they can also be installed on walls using our Vertika™ channel system. This flexibility allows you to take your design anywhere you want it to go, seamlessly joining walls and ceilings.
Since an aluminum ceiling grid can be installed below an existing ceiling, it can be used to upgrade your space without having to complete a full renovation. Whether you’re concealing wires, plumbing or ductwork, or hiding an unsightly or boring drywall ceiling, the flexibility of an aluminum ceiling system allows you to design without restrictions.
