Hello!

I'm planning to lower the ceiling in my hallway. I've measured with a laser, and there's a few centimeters of difference, so the ceiling is crooked. It's a long hallway, and when you enter through the front door with the evening sun hitting, you can see that the ceiling is slanted. Anyway, now I'm considering how to lower it. I'm most inclined to lower it with glespanel because it's so convenient, so the question is, can you place spacers between the ceiling and gles or between gles and gles to get the ceiling straight? Or is that just silly? The idea is to use double gles, which lowers it by 56mm and also makes it easier for the electrician who will be running some wiring later. The ceiling is made of concrete. Feel free to share some tips, I'm a beginner :rofl: regards
 
  • Ceiling in a hallway with visible laser lines showing unevenness, door partially open, highlighting need for ceiling leveling.

I am most interested in lowering it with slatted panels because it's so convenient, so the question is, can you put spacers between the ceiling and slats or between slat and slat to make the ceiling straight? Or is it just silly? The idea is to use double slats which lowers it by 56mm and also facilitates the electrician who is going to do some wiring later. The ceiling is made of concrete.

EDIT: the idea is to use 28x70 slatted panels first vertically and then attach the second layer horizontally

vertically might not work so well? Install both layers horizontally instead.

Use plugs and screw up 28X70 gles with the help of these.

Then you can adjust the ceiling straight
Super smart idea. Now, however, I've bought expanding nails that I'm going to hammer up, so I don't have the option to do that unless there are shorter adjustment screws that can be set in the second layer of the glesen?

Maybe I phrased it a bit wrong, but I'm thinking of that cross arrangement of gles, don't really know what it's called :rofl:
