We appreciate that feedback as that was our intent when we set out to create the video! It's such a simple and straight forward concept that there's no need to complicate it by over explaining things.
What if you have to cut a section to fit or do you order after measuring your ceiling? Can you cut for lights? What happens if a light does not fall into a section?
None of the coffer modules ("sections") will need to be cut to fit since they are custom manufactured to fit your ceiling based on the dimensions you provide to us. Yes, you can cut the ceiling panel to allow for lights and if a light fixture does not fall favorably within a coffer module you can relocate it accordingly.
No ceiling or room is going to be perfectly square and so our Box Beam Coffered Ceiling Systems have been designed to allow for flexibility in the Perimeter Beam Board to allow for variances. The Perimeter Beam Board can be ripped, scribed and/or tapered to accommodate as needed. Since we custom manufacture each and every Box Beam System to order, every coffer module is made to fit the ceiling it's being installed on and no partial coffers are ever needed.
Yes, and you can enter the dimensions of your ceiling into our Design & Quote tool via the following link: www.tiltoncofferedceilings.com/coffered-ceiling-design-quote-software/
And we're are you supposed to purchase these mouldings, here in the UK the stores are scratching their heads when I mention this as it's unheard of here.
That's interesting but I have a few questions. What do you do if: 1. you have can lights, 2. a sprinkler system, 3. if you have speakers installed in the ceiling 4. the room is not square (it never is), the ceiling is not leveled. There is a huge difference between "building" a ceiling like that on a laptop, sitting on your couch and doing it in reality.
You’d have to plan around the immovable thing (sprinklers) and plan to move all the rest around your ceiling. This is why most people do these ceilings at new construction or during a remodel. It seems as though you will have to supply this company with an actual measured layout of the room, and the pieces will be made specifically for your space. As for the squareness of the room, the level-ness of the ceiling etc - they were addressed in the video.
We don't build our ceiling systems on a laptop, we custom manufacture them in facilities right here in the USA to support our economy. The video was created in virtual reality to provide a clear and concise overview of our simple process, but we also have a live action video for any naysayers that you can check out on our channel. 1. If you have can/recessed light fixtures you can opt for our 'No Ceiling Panel' option which will allow you to install our system around these fixtures without the need to relocate or disturb them OR you can cut the appropriate sized holes for these fixtures into any of our other Ceiling Panel Options. www.tiltoncofferedceilings.com/box-beam-ceiling/product-options/ceiling-panels/ 2. Unless you are willing to relocate the sprinkler heads we would need to plan the layout of your coffered ceiling so that they fall in desirable locations. 3. Same as the answer for #1 except that speakers can be easily relocated as needed. 4. We realize that no ceiling or room is going to be perfectly square and so our Box Beam Coffered Ceiling Systems have been designed to allow for flexibility in the Perimeter Beam Board to allow for variances. The Perimeter Beam Board can be ripped, scribed and/or tapered to accommodate as needed with the Perimeter molding covering any remaining differences.
good luck finding a perfectly squared room! and people should know that probably have to scribe the perimeter trim boards for out of square corners, out of square walls, and bows in walls! have a table saw ready and a box of caulking.
Any variance in the squareness of the room and/or straightness of the walls can be accounted for in the Perimeter Beam Boards. There are no standard or stock sizes with the Tilton Coffered Ceilings System therefore you would never end up with a 'partial' module. Every module we make is custom built for the ceiling it is intended for. We can produce any shape or size to fit any ceiling perfectly. (Copied from previous comment)
For this instructional video we decided to omit any lighting details and to stay focused on the installation of the product itself. Besides, not all ceilings have light fixtures in them.
We realize that lots of homes are framed with joists or trusses at spacing other than 16" on-center (i.e. 19.2" or 24") and since our coffer modules only require 4 mounting points each (with the average size being in the 48" range) they will all cross over at least 2 joists/trusses to provide the 4 mounting points as needed.
Looks like pretty sound system, depending on cost, building that from scratch with MDF and mouldings would take much much longer, have done em b4.......but yeah studs and square rooms aren't that simple......the scribe moulding take care of gaps in walls where there wavy........

Yes Captain, in remodel type applications light fixtures will typically exist and as such you would simply need to cut the appropriate size openings in the Ceiling Panel of the Coffer Modules to accommodate for those fixtures. With surface mounted light fixtures the junction boxes would need to have extensions added to them and with recessed fixtures they would need to be removed and "remodel" type fixtures reinstalled by way of securing them to the Ceiling Panel of the Coffer Modules with their integrated clips instead of to the drywall. An easier solution for applications where light fixtures already exist would be to utilize our No Ceiling Panel option found on the following page which allows for the fixtures to remain in place during the installation: www.tiltoncofferedceilings.com/box-beam-ceiling/product-options/ceiling-panels/

I'm not sure what makes you say that? We have yet to encounter a ceiling size or shape that it won't work on (many of which have been less than ideal). As the video demonstrates, the system actually overcomes many of the obstacles one would typically face when trying to install a coffered ceiling from scratch.
Measuring to find the center point of the ceiling is about as basic as it gets and once you locate the first joist and know their spacing (i.e. 16" or 24" on-center) finding and marking the rest is quick and easy.
Talk about straight to the point! No BS fillers.
Like!
I'm glad you can appreciate that about it.
@@cofferedceilings Keep up the good work man, salute!
Thanks and we're still at it with no plans to stop anytime soon.
As a carpenter, this takes all the fun out of it
great how to video, simple concise to the point and quick...some of these guys take hours explaining things

Thanks Darron, we appreciate the endorsement!
Real Enjoyed watching this video here that you have Made.
An Thank you for sharing this video. 👌
Glad you enjoyed it and you're welcome.
Such a beautiful ceiling when done right! Thanks for sharing..

Thank you very much!
What do you do if the ceiling isn't exactly square? How do you adjust the size of the module if the dimension of the room says you need a partial one?
No ceiling or room is going to be perfectly square and so our Box Beam Coffered Ceiling Systems have been designed to allow for flexibility in the Perimeter Beam Board to allow for variances. The Perimeter Beam Board can be ripped, scribed and/or tapered to accommodate as needed. Since we custom manufacture each and every Box Beam System to order, every coffer module is made to fit the ceiling it's being installed on and no partial coffers are ever needed.
thank you. it is one of the best diy clips
Thank you for the positive feedback as we put a lot of time and effort into it.
Does this system calculate everything for you based on the room's measurements?
Yes, and you can enter the dimensions of your ceiling into our Design & Quote tool via the following link: www.tiltoncofferedceilings.com/coffered-ceiling-design-quote-software/
And we're are you supposed to purchase these mouldings, here in the UK the stores are scratching their heads when I mention this as it's unheard of here.
I'm sorry, but we don't ship to the UK as it is cost prohibitive.
Tilton Coffered Ceilings . If only you did as it's not available here, so many would buy these

where are the lights?

What if the ceiling is 24" o.c. truss bottom chords?

And if Toll Brothers built the place the studs and floor joists are framed on "The Diamond" meaning every 19.2 inches...

Ceiling joint is not every 16 inches, most home is every 24 inches.

In the real world, at least a light fixture would have been on the way somewhere in the ceiling.

@@adrianaguilar499 Yes you can!
It looks simple but it's not that simple. For example, finding studs is not as simple as this. They are not always 16 inches apart etc.
