ABSTRACT:
An integrated system of components to completely reface a conventional suspended ceiling. The components are manufactured in discrete sizes and shapes to cover the grids and all grid intersections so that all installed components lie contiguously in the same plane to maintain the original appearance of the ceiling but with a fresh face. The components are designed to be snapped onto the grids using minimal upward force so as not to cause distortion or misalignment of the suspended grids. The installation can be accomplished expeditiously. The only cutting necessary is to adjust the components at the peripheral areas where the precut pieces will not fit the spaces remaining. Very little skill or special tools are required. Complementary panel cover sheets are provided to complete the refacing. The system can be constructed in a variety of colors and textures to blend with or enhance many different styles and modes of decoration. The components can be removed if another refacing is later desired.
