What should you check first?

Create a simple ceiling plan with lamps, central boxes, rails and any ventilation points. A moved light point often requires restoration that has to be performed before finishing. In addition, indicate whether existing luminaires disappear and who takes care of the electrical work.

How does this affect your choice?

The final height, mounting and openings must fit the ceiling structure. Let the professionals coordinate the order. plastering must not become a solution for a non-appropriate or incompletely mounted part.

Planning the next step

Discuss the finish around openings and the assessment with the final lighting. Protect the new layer while mounting luminaires and rails. If you still need to drill or adjust, let first check how the underlying construction and pipes run.
