Faux Tin Ceiling Tiles FAQ's
Are faux tin ceiling tiles suitable for all rooms?
Faux tin ceiling tiles are great for living spaces, kitchens, bedrooms, lobbies, or even the front of the house in retail and restaurant applications. However, faux tin or metal-look ceiling tiles are best installed in areas with low to no humidity. Different products have different performance features, be sure to check the recommendations for the product that meets the needs of your room.
How do faux metal ceiling tiles compare to real metal tiles in terms of appearance?
Faux metal ceiling tiles are designed to look like real metal and tin tiles with their finishes and textures but are typically made from materials such as PVC, fiberglass, or other materials. Faux metal tiles closely resemble actual metal tiles, especially from a distance. Real metal tiles have a metallic sheen that can be difficult to replicate exactly.
Are faux metal ceiling tiles fire-resistant?
All four faux metal/tin looks available from Kanopi By Armstrong (TINCRAFT, TINTILE, Circles, and WELLINGTON) have a Class A Fire Rating.
Can faux metal or faux tin tiles be used in outdoor applications?
No, they are not recommended for outdoor installation.
How do faux tin or metal ceiling tiles handle humidity and moisture?
Each faux tin ceiling tile will have different performance features when it comes to sag and humidity resistance. Review your desired product’s rating and make sure it is compatible with your space before ordering.
Can faux tin ceiling tiles be installed over existing ceilings?
Yes, faux tin or metal ceiling tiles are great for covering popcorn or attaching directly to a drywall ceiling. You’ll want to look for ‘direct attach’ installation methods and use the manufacturer’s recommended adhesive or check out Armstrong’s EASY UP Installation System.
