  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

Beautiful, stylish, original ... many more epithets can be chosen while admiring the beautiful two-level ceiling from gypsum board. That this is the unusual design of these ceilings. The fact that each ceiling looks different.

And the more imagination you show when developing sketches of the ceiling, the brighter it will characterize you and decorate the hall, bedroom, living room or kitchen.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

At first glance, it seems that only a tandem designer plus professional builders can create such beauty. But no, for the construction of ceilings from the GK there is no need to finish an art school, to have a higher education in the specialty "builder". Not required and a set of special tools. It is enough to have an idea of ​​what kind of ceiling you want to make and receive. And also to show some creativity. The rest is a matter of technique.

Despite the fact that visually all the ceilings are different, the difference to them gives the final decoration and a good design. Someone cares more about the warming of the ceiling, and some design, although, these processes may be related, complementing each other.

The technology of a two-level drywall ceiling is identical for each type (single-level, multi-level). And to make it easier for a beginner, this article will provide step-by-step instructions on how to install 2-level gypsum ceilings. But, first, a little theory ...

How to make a two-level ceiling of plasterboard - plan

First of all, there are several important points to consider:

  • the height of the room. Two-level ceiling design will reduce the height of the room. For residents of modern apartments in a panel house, even 5-10 cm are already significant losses;

Council
If you have a perfectly flat ceiling, then you can mount the second level of the frame directly on it. So you will save space.

  • distribution of accents. With the help of fixtures mounted in the frame of the gypsum ceiling, you can zone the space or shift the focus to any part of the room.

Lamps can purchase any power. Plasterboard systems do not impose any restrictions on your choice. As, for example, suspended ceilings or plastic, where there is a danger of using powerful light fixtures (it can lead to deformation and even fire).

  • room humidity. This ceiling is not recommended to equip the bathroom, because the sheet can be deformed. Although, there is moisture-resistant drywall (GKLV), for example, Knauf, with proper installation and organization of high-quality ventilation, it can serve.

Council
In order to protect the drywall from moisture, a primer is used in several layers.

  • the presence of assistants. Independently a person to perform this work is not under force.
  • design complexity. The more complex the design, the more difficult it is to calculate the amount of materials and mount them, and accordingly, the work will last longer.

Plans and sketches of two-level plasterboard ceilings

Knowing what you want to see on the ceiling will significantly simplify your material calculation and work.

Before making ceiling drawings, familiarize yourself with what types of two-level plasterboard ceilings exist.

Illuminated plasterboard ceiling - installation methods

The first method consists in the device of the second level without mounting the first one. Used if you have an ideal ceiling surface. And the lamp is supposed to be placed in the frame.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

The approach is the same. But the lamps are mounted on the side of the frame.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

Installation of two frames. Lamps are mounted in the second of them.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

The installation approach is the same. But the lamps are located on the perimeter of the second tier.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

A similar approach. But for the side lamps, instead of the frame, arrangement of the polypropylene profile is provided, which is glued to the frame of the second level with the help of putty.

Using one of the basic types of installation presented, you can easily create such sketches of a two-level ceiling that will appeal to all family members.

How to make a two-level plasterboard ceiling - installation instructions

It should be noted that among the professionals there is disagreement in which order to implement the device tiers. Two ways can be distinguished.

  • In the first case, the work begins with the installation of the frame of the first level. And then the skeleton of the second tier is suspended to it. Applicable if the area of ​​the second tier is insignificant, because in fact, the entire weight of the second frame falls on the sheets of the first.
  • In the second case, the skeleton of the second tier is assembled first, and already between its elements make the skeleton of the first. More complex design.

We will talk in more detail about the first version of the installation of a two-level ceiling. This will give you basic installation information. The second option, more complex, will be described below and illustrated in the photo.

We make a two-level plasterboard ceiling consistently and in accordance with the instructions, then the work will be done qualitatively.

The technology of manufacturing 2-level gypsum ceilings provides for performing work in the following order:

  1. Preparing the ceiling for drywall (preparing the workplace).
  2. We carry out the marking of the ceiling under the frame for drywall.
  3. Installation of the frame for drywall - the first level.
  4. Installing the frame for drywall - the second level.
  5. Finishing of a two-level plasterboard ceiling.

1. Preparing the ceiling for drywall

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation Finishing the ceiling is not like screwing a light bulb - here you can't do without carrying out furniture.

Free up the room and the approaches to it, so it will be easier to install. It is important to prepare the surface itself. Agree, it is better to do something in a free space than constantly bending around, cutting, washing off some remnants. All loose plaster should be removed. Some craftsmen leave it, but all that does not hold well sooner or later will disappear.

2. Layout of the ceiling under the drywall frame

To do this, take the following steps:

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation - measure the height of the corners in the room;

- determine the angle with the smallest height.

It will serve as a starting point for marking. After all, we need to design was flat relative to the horizontal;

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation - make markup.

On the walls for profiles denote a flat line. On the ceiling for direct suspension put the point. The extra markup is useless, it will only confuse. For these purposes it is convenient to use a laser level or water level.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation Council The water level of the desired length can be made independently using a nylon hose (for example, from a medical dropper) with diameters of 10-15 mm. and filling it with water.

It may happen that in your room not only the angles are different, but also the length of the opposite sides. In this case, try first to level horizontally. And then draw a clear picture on the ceiling and smooth the design around the edges. So you can visually center the ceiling.

3. Installation of the frame for drywall - installation of the first level

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

3.1. Installation begins with the installation of UD profiles.

They are guides and are mounted on the wall, along the perimeter of the whole structure. Mounting step - 600 mm. And also on the ceiling.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation The way of connecting the profile on the wall and in the corner is presented in the photo (on the right and on the left, respectively).

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation If it is intended to form rounded elements, you need to draw a picture on the wall, and attach the UD-profile along it. But first, you need to make notches on the profile.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation And attach along the line drawn on the ceiling.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

3.2. We attach a direct suspension to the points marked on the ceiling.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation At the same time, we observe the fastening pitch - 600 mm.

Recommendation.

If your ceiling surface is perfect, you can skip this step. And start immediately with the installation of the second level.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

3.3. On the direct suspension is mounted CD-profile.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

The resulting frame will have the form shown in the diagram and photo.

3.4. We sew up the frame with sheets of drywall.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation Council

Where the sheet was cut, it is necessary to provide a chamfer. To do this, cut a piece of material from a sheet of drywall with a knife.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation This is necessary in order to better lay putty on the seam. And the seam is not sold with time.

4. Installation of the frame for drywall - installation of the second level

Next, proceed to the consideration of the phased installation of the second level of the ceiling.

4.1. The layout of the frame for drywall.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation To do this, draw lines under the UD-profile on the wall, and draw a future drawing on the ceiling.

The presence of the scheme on the ceiling will not only simplify the installation process, but also help you understand how your structure will look like after the completion of the work. And, therefore, you will have the opportunity to make the necessary adjustments.

4.2. Plasterboard frame

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation

We mount the ceiling frame of a metal profile (UD-profile), fixing it on the wall and on the ceiling.

We already know how to make the frame of the desired shape (round out the profile).

Material prepared for the site www.moydomik.net

4.3. We lower the frame to the desired length.

For this you need:

  • cut off the CD-profile of the length to which you want to lower the frame;
  • On one side of these pieces, cut the "tongues." To do this, cut off the side parts of the profile. So it will be easier to mount them.
  • Insert the cut pieces into the guide UD-profile, which is already attached to the ceiling. Need to insert a flat side.
  • fix the pieces using a “flea”. The step between straight line segments is 500-600 mm. A bigger step will make the structure insufficiently reliable, a smaller one will make it heavier. The step between curvilinear segments is 200-300 mm. This is due to the fact that the curvilinear sheet must be fastened more often.
  • “hang up” the UD-profile into the hanging pieces and fix them with the “flea”.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation As a result, you should have a side frame, like this.

Then follows:

  • cut off the CD profile with the length equal to the distance from the sidewall of the frame to the UD profile located on the wall;
  • secure them with "fleas" on both sides.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation You got a finished metal frame. After that, it should be sheathed with drywall and proceed to the finishing work.

Council Collecting frame look in the drawings. Otherwise it may happen that the jumper will be in place of the future lamp.

4.4. Making the arch of plasterboard.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation The photo and the picture show how to bend the drywall for the arch and how the CD-profile and the drywall sheet should be prepared.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation Their device is very simple, it is important to correctly make notches on the sheet, without cutting the front layer of cardboard.

4.5. Facing plasterboard round surfaces

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation If it is possible to cut the desired size from the whole sheet, the question is easily solved. If not, cut out the segments and assemble them in pieces.

It should be noted that in this case the frame must be stiffer. Because, each screw is screwed into the profile.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation The result of your efforts should look something like the photo.

5. Finishing the ceiling of plasterboard

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation Stitches seams ribbon serpyanka.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation Put a little putty on the tape with a small spatula.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation Also put putty on the screws.

This is necessary so that rust will not manifest itself over time through paint or wallpaper.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation Good to know.
If you plan to paint a two-level ceiling of drywall, it is better to zashpatlevat the entire surface. Otherwise, under the paint will appear ugly seams.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation The place of the seam (or the entire surface) is rubbed with a grid-grater or grinder.

  Two-level plasterboard ceilings design and installation Council
Particularly carefully rub the surface in the corners. To prevent the occurrence of lateral grooves from the grater.

Plasterboard ceiling decoration.

Optimal and very popular painting the ceiling. Staining the ceiling of plasterboard should be accompanied by a preliminary surface treatment with a primer.

The second method of installing a two-level gypsum-coated ceiling

In conclusion, as promised, we give a photo instruction on the second version of the ceiling mounting, when the skeleton of the second tier is assembled first, and already between its elements mount the skeleton of the first.
