Visibly invisible Edgeless flush ceiling-mounting

Tasteful discretion – this is thewatchword of the LIGHTTOOLSlighting system. In adopting this approach it meets many archi-tects’ wishes for lighting soluti-ons which combine effective lighting with a visually discreet appearance: LIGHTTOOLSsomehow conjures up light outof the ceiling. It can do so because it blends into flat ceil-ings thanks to its edgeless flushmounting capability. Edgeless section – flush ceil-ing-mounted continuous-rowstructure Installation : First place themounting frame in the ceiling cut-out and screw-fasten it at thesides to the plasterboard panels. Its smooth surrounding metal edgealso acts as a plastering edge trim.It ensures an accurate, straight, clean ceiling cut-out. Do not insertthe channel section into themounting frame and fix it flush with the ceiling surface until the mount-ing frame has been plastered in and the ceiling has been given itsfinal coat of paint, if applicable.The gap between the “plaster frame” and the actual channel section ensures clean fitting aswell as perfect physical and ther- mal separation. The edgeless channel sectionis suitable for flat, homogeneousceiling structures (e.g. plaster-board or wooden ceilings). Section with supporting edge –ceiling-bearing continuous-rowstructure Installation : Suspend the chan-nel section with supporting edge,adjust it and level it at the sametime as the ceiling carriers (e.g. T-bars). Horizontal levelling andheight adjustment are obtained bymeans of two attached adjacentsteel cords which transfer the loadto the static load-bearing ceiling. In the case of structured, lesshomogeneous ceilings (e.g. ceil-ing panels or coffered ceilings),the channel section is a self- supporting element for the sus-pended ceiling. With its lateralsupporting edges it supports the adjacent ceiling elements. Installation : The first step is totemporarily suspend the channelsection with supporting edge fromsteel cords which hang down from the load-bearing ceiling throughthe cut-out in the plasterboard orwooden ceiling. Then raise thesection and insert it into the cut-out from below. Integral “patented suspension devices” ensure thatchannel sections can be securelyfixed in the ceiling without the ceil- ing being subjected to any additio-nal load due to their weight. A channel section with sup-porting edge can of course alsobe installed in ceilings, with flat elements.
