Install a suspended ceiling, why not! The challenge can be more complex when hiding a ventilation duct.
Embassy Ceilings has THE solution for you! With just a few tips and simple steps, you can achieve a perfect bulkhead that matches your ceiling.
The solution: first of all, you need to create a new structure on which the anchors will be installed to support the suspended ceiling panels.
Below are the steps to make a bulkhead and hide a ventilation duct:
1. Build a structure around the element to be covered.
2. Insert a piece of cardboard from the packing box to support the back of the panel.
3. Install the anchors on the structure.
3. Glue the main crossbars together to create an inside and outside 90° corner.
4. Cut and insert the panels between the main crossbars. Then cut and glue the secondary crossbars.
5. Cut 3/8 inch wide support and insert them inside the crossbar to support the pannels.
6. Take the inside measurement of the crossbar and add 3/8 inch to cut the panels.
