Drop In Ceiling

A dropped ceiling is also referred to as a suspended ceiling or a drop-in ceiling. These ceilings are usually found in commercial spaces like casinos, hotels, restaurants and office spaces. It is a secondary ceiling used to hide unsightly piping, wiring or ductwork.



It consists of metal channel grid work (shown above) called a drop-in grid or t-bar grid. Standard grid systems are 15"/16" and run horizontally and vertically forming squares along the ceiling area.

Tin ceiling panels sit nicely and beautifully within these grid systems, enhancing the look and feel of the space they are installed in. For those that are unfamiliar with the tin ceiling panel being an option, traditional acoustical tiles are used which have a much less aesthetic appeal.
