Also, would you be able to use this around an hvac run? I am thinking about using this for a workout room in the basement and I need to build a chase and would love to not use sheetrock for the chase so I could access the ceiling if needed
Great question! I was able to put the fan bracket on the outside of the wood using longer screws into the housing. You could also add a box extender to the electrical connection box.
Mr Greg I'm fixing to do 2 rooms in this exact same material. Do you have to order the tracks and clips separately?? I can't figure it out says something is included in the box.
Yes, you need to buy the planks and tracks separately. The tracks come with clips. The clips included in the package with the planks work for a wall mount, but not ceiling. Good luck on the project and let us know how it turns out!
What do you think about installing this in a large family/kitchen room space with 8 foot ceilings ? Do you think it would make the room appear to low ? Solid cherry wood cabinets in kitchen . Thanks for a great video !
Howdy partner! It would probably create a cozy atmosphere with dark cabinets and ceiling. That said, the ceiling in the video is a little under 8’ and it doesn’t close in too much. Best of luck to you!
I am less than 24 inches between rails. I believe that according to instructions, 24 is the max spacing, but I would double-check that with the official docs. The rails come in sets of 10, so used the remainder to have closer spacing.
Howdy, partner! That would be doable, but not enjoyable. Fingers crossed that doesn’t happen for a long time. I would always recommend to keep a few spare pieces just in case.
Thanks for your video! Super informative!! I've never heard of the Armstrong plank system until I clicked your video!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Its a pretty cool system.
This is the best thing to stop breeding dust from the popcorn ceiling
It is a nice update from the old popcorn. Thanks for watching!
Interesting product, I’ve never seen it before. Thanks for sharing.
Howdy, partner! Yes, it gave a great finished look and appears well made. Thanks for watching!
What do you trim it with? Does it come with trim to finish off edges or did you use quarter round?
Also, would you be able to use this around an hvac run? I am thinking about using this for a workout room in the basement and I need to build a chase and would love to not use sheetrock for the chase so I could access the ceiling if needed
beautiful, this is exactly what i'd like to do in the living room. I'd have to find a contractor or installer.
It was a very nice product and came out great. Was a fair amount of work though! Good luck!
I'd also love to know what wallpaper you have in the background :)

Great how to video. I have been looking at using this system for a vaulted ceiling in my kitchen. What would you do if you do not have ceiling trim?
Thank you so much!
Wow.could you please tell which paint color you use for this?and how many paint cod added to that wood..
it's so calm color for eyes.❤❤❤❤
@@DhammikaRanathunga the color is prestained to the product. Check the link in the video or description for exact info.
Did you have to do anything to the fan bracket because of the difference in depth from the wood?
Great question! I was able to put the fan bracket on the outside of the wood using longer screws into the housing. You could also add a box extender to the electrical connection box.
So you use three or so clips per plank of wood? And the clips dont get in the way of inserting the next plank?
Correct. The clips are invisible and stay out of the way. They provide a very good hold.

What os the cost per square foot?
Did it come with all the hardware??? Or is it bought separately?
The hardware (rails/clips) is purchased separately but is from the same manufacturer.
Are u 24 inches between rails?

Is screwing into the drywall OK? Or do you have to make sure you get into the ceiling joist? Will drywall take the weight?
Howdy, partner! Be sure to get screws into the joists. This ceiling is heavy and drywall alone cannot support long-term. Good luck!
How do you take it off if something happens or 3 of them are warping from a water leak ? 😂 thanks
Howdy, partner! That would be doable, but not enjoyable. Fingers crossed that doesn’t happen for a long time. I would always recommend to keep a few spare pieces just in case.
