How to Install Drop in Ceiling Tiles?

Installation Process

You will not need to find the center of the room when you are installing faux tin drop in ceiling tiles. This is because you can use the outlay of the existing tile system as a guide.

Simply install the first tile by pushing the ends into the creases of the existing grid system. Take care not to push too hard on the tile, but just gently enough to insert it over the existing tile.

 Repeat the same process described in Step 1 until you have completed all of the whole tiles and are left with the corners.

The ‘cut-to-fit’ faux tin drop in ceiling tiles may need an adhesive to hold them tightly in place. This is because they will not be held from all four corners into the existing grid system.

However, if you are able to cut the tiles to ensure a tight fit between the wall, then you may just dispense the adhesive.

Advantages

Quick Installation: Installation period can range from a few hours or days depending on the size ceiling you are covering.

The absence of adhesive is also an advantage since you won’t need to remove the existing tiles to “glue” them to the new tiles. This has a direct impact on the installation time involved.

Affordable: Faux drop in ceiling tiles are affordable and can keep your remodeling project within your budget range regardless of the number of ceilings you will cover.

Easy to Remove:  They are easy to install and also easy to remove as well. You can use a small plastic knife to loosen the four corners and remove the tiles.

This is a perfect option for someone that just wants to give their ceiling a quick “facelift” for a special event, but intend to use the old grid system afterwards.
