What are the different installation methods?
Installing your new modern ceiling tiles is easier than you might think! We’ve got 3 main installation methods depending on the tile, including glue-up, nail-up, and modern drop ceiling tiles:
Glue-Up installation is ideal for lightweight materials like Styrofoam or PVC. Simply apply an adhesive to the back of each tile and press it directly onto a clean, flat ceiling. It’s fast, affordable and perfect for DIYers.
Nail-Up tiles , often made from real metal like tin or aluminum , require a solid backing such as plywood or furring strips. Each tile has an overlap edge, so they line up cleanly. Use decorative nails to secure them for a nice finish.
Grid (Suspended) tiles , also known as ‘Modern Drop-in Ceiling Tiles’ are designed for standard suspended ceiling systems with 15/16" or 9/16" T-bars. Simply “drop” the tile into the frame, no adhesive or nails required. Modern drop ceiling tiles are a top choice for upgrading basements, offices or commercial spaces where easy access to pipes and wiring is a must.
