Teach you how to install an integrated ceiling

Step 1: Prepare the Ceiling Materials

When selecting an aluminum grid ceiling, common sizes include 300mm×300mm, 300mm×450mm, and 600mm×600mm. Reston’s newly launched “New Baroque” series also offers options like 350mm×350mm. In addition to the ceiling panels, you'll need keel materials such as galvanized steel hangers, light steel keels, triangular keels, and trim strips. These can be purchased from local decoration markets or at a Reston store.

Tip: If your ceiling is already standard, you can skip to step three.

The price of aluminum grid ceilings varies significantly. Low-end options may cost around 50 yuan per square meter, while high-end or imported brands offer better durability and quality, though at a higher price. Some products come with package deals, while others require separate purchases. Choose based on your budget and needs.

Step 2: Install the Ceiling

1. Start by marking a horizontal line where the ceiling will be installed and hang the light steel keel. 2. Attach the special triangular clips to the keel, aligning them with the size of the ceiling panel. The triangular keel only requires one-way installation. 3. Once the keel framework is in place, simply press the aluminum grid panels into the triangular joints until they fit snugly.

Tip: When installing the panels, make sure the grooves (with small pits) are inserted into the triangular joints. Avoid placing the raised edges into the grooves, and apply gentle pressure for a tight, seamless finish.

Step 3: Choose Electrical Modules

Depending on your bathroom layout and personal preferences, you can choose various electrical modules. These can be matched at a local decoration market or selected with guidance from a professional at a Reston store. Common options include a heating module above the shower area, a ventilation module near the toilet, a lighting module in the center, and a spotlight module over the sink and vanity mirror.

Tip: Many reputable companies offer full-service design and installation. You can simply share your requirements with a designer, who will create a plan for you. After purchasing the product, professional installers will come to your home and install everything according to the design, often free of charge.
