Stretch ceilings. Installation of stretch ceiling

Watch the ceiling - an idle exercise, focus on the case, suggests rather look at the floor. However, the age-old trendsetters - the French - and then made their adjustments. With the advent of suspended ceilings, we are increasingly in thought leans back in his chair, making sure that the ceiling might be perfect. Appears in the middle of the Great Bear Bucket new star, we are likely to be known about it from news reports, rather than themselves noticed. Immersed in the daily cares, we do not often turn their eyes to the sky. Is that a cry of "How long?" and appropriate gestures. But the new spot on the ceiling, we note at once. Oh well, we, city dwellers, the eyes are set to close. Hence the global myopia. Although the ceiling is the least functional part of the dwelling, its imperfection is striking is not less than peel the wallpaper and tiles falling off. Ugly ceiling joints, rusty stains, cracks, dandruff whitewash "- one of us will be surprised by this? Only yesterday, these "beauty of life" was the sad fate of the house at any level. But now the load to the building neologism "renovation" have another - suspended ceilings. Ceilings Pharaoh Ramses The official version of suspended ceilings have been invented in France about a quarter of a century ago. Anyway, it was in the mid 70-ies of the past century was issued the patents. In fact their history goes back centuries. Like many other inventions that are used to this day, the first stretch ceilings have been around since ancient Egypt. Later they were used in the interiors of Roman halls. In the Caucasus, more than a century known way to install the ceiling of the soaked with an aqueous solution of chalk fabric stretched over a frame. After drying, the canvas is stretched, forming a perfectly flat surface. Also, save the information that during the Russian-Japanese War in Sevastopol hospitals stretched sheets under the ceiling, in order to be saved from crumbling plaster during the shelling. Tissue prototype of modern polymer coatings, the mass production of which began in the sixties in the Scandinavian countries, performed for the most part aesthetic function. Materials used in our days, primarily known for their durability and longevity. Fire, water and copper pipes Judging by the advertisements, the only advantage of stretch ceilings - the notorious 100 liters per square meter, which the film can withstand. You might think that we all live under the exclusive swimming pool, or are in poor condition pipes. But the flood is not primarily an insurance case in real estate. Either way, one-sided approach to advertising can not but cause surprise, since suspended ceilings have perhaps the most lengthy and impressive list of advantages of all known and finishing materials. They not only meet all standards of safety and hygiene, but they are aesthetic, durable and highly reliable material. Their basis - a heavy-duty, environmentally friendly PVC, not skipping and condensation of moisture, making it ideal for bathrooms, pools, kitchens and hospitals, helped by a special anti-bacterial treatment, eliminating the sources of unpleasant odors. Canvas does not support combustion (so-called standard M1) and do not miss the dust that will forget about the incident from the ceiling, whitewashed. It is so elastic, that can absorb without damage to almost any load and shock (of course, except for cutting), creates an air layer that prevents heat loss through the ceiling and having insulating properties. Finally, the suspended ceiling hides the communication (pipes and wiring), and requires no maintenance, and if such a need arises, to wash his suit most ordinary detergents. Listed enough to say with certainty: neither fire nor water, nor copper pipes stretch ceiling is not scary. And the ten-year warranty - confirmation of this. Themselves in the mirror I see Inspired by transfer of useful properties, one can easily forget about the beauty of suspended ceilings, but only as long as the familiarity with them is the theory. In practice, the potential buyer is faced with the most terrible for the national consciousness of the problem - the problem of choice. To date, companies that specialize in stretch ceilings, offering a half hundreds of shades and textures of the film. The color palette ranges from white to black, textures offered no less. Alternative to the traditional matte ceilings act as a mirror reflecting the room, glossy leaf. They visually enlarge the volume of space, which is particularly valuable for small rooms. There is also a large selection of ceiling under the suede, marble, leather, metal and other materials. The owners of cafes, restaurants, clubs and bars can opt for ceilings with Lycra or perforations. In this regard, the easiest way to those who set the ceiling at the same time to finish the entire room. Then choose the architect will have to develop projects. Time is money - Besides those already mentioned qualities, suspended ceilings are good speeds order fulfillment and ease of installation. Order is carried out for 1-30 days. Such a large spread is caused primarily urgency, volume and the selected company. If the first two parameters is very straightforward, then against the company that sets the ceiling, everything is more complicated. Almost all workers in the Russian market the company bought ceilings in France, which, naturally, long time. You can expedite the process by contacting the company with its production capacity. Compared with the time of delivery, installation dates for truth ridiculous. Almost regardless of room size to the object leaves only three of the wizard. Pulling on the ceiling, "they do not pull the cat's tail" and mount any room for a couple of hours. Such as with the fabulous grandfather that "pulls, pulls, and pull can not" with them does not happen - all clearly in the military. Work without the noise and dust installation of stretch ceilings is very simple. First, the perimeter of the room at the desired level (the gap between basic and decorative ceilings typically ranges from 0.5 to 10 centimeters) is attached to the walls of a plastic frame, performing a function of the frame stretch ceiling. When drilling holes all the "waste" sucked into a vacuum cleaner, which guarantees the purity of the premises. In places where it is supposed to arrange spotlights mounted steel rack. The film hangs on the corners for a special clip, and it was heated with a heat gun. When it becomes pliable, its pull, locking in a baguette with special blades. Once all the edges of the film will be primed, and indoor air cools, the film is compressed. And the ceiling is obtained perfectly flat. Lamps can be any, although their power imposes some restrictions: incandescent lamps - up to 60 watts, halogen - 36 Tues Fixtures are attached to the main ceiling, and a tensioner for them to bore holes, which are pasted on the perimeter of a special ring. Many women in pursuit of a runaway youth, do yourself a facelift. Stretch ceiling lift is not needed - they do not sag and wrinkle, aging decades with you.
