Grid size
The standard width for ceiling grid (metal frame around each tile) is 15/16" wide - about the same size as the diameter of a quarter. A thinner version, 9/16", is also common and growing in popularity.
Yes. Unpack everything at least 24 hours before installation to get it acclimatized. Do NOT install if the room is excessively humid. See specific product instructions for best results.
Included in the grid system are main beams, wall moldings, cross tees, and hanger wires.
Main beams carry the load of the grid system
Wall moldings are used as a finishing trim to hang against the walls in the space
Cross tees are the supporting grid pieces that attach perpendicular to the main beams, helping create the 24” x 24” or 24” x 48” opening needed for your tiles. Alternate cross tee sizes are also available for less common tile sizes.
Hanger wires attach to the ceiling joists and are how the main beams and cross tees hang

FIRE GUARD means that the product is engineered and tested as part of a fire resistant system, which includes tile, grid and the structure itself. Please check local building codes requirements for your space. The following link will direct you to additional information and support for Armstrong's Fire Resistant ceiling systems.
Fire ratings refer to flame spread and smoke development. Ratings indicate how rapidly flame spreads on one surface as compared to another. The flame spread rating is broken into three categories: Class A, Class B and Class C. Class A products have a flame-spread of 25 or less, and smoke developed of 50 or less. Class C products have a flame-spread of 76-200, and smoke developed of 0-450. Class A products are appropriate in the majority of commercial applications and Class C products are appropriate in most residential applications.
Armstrong products come packaged in cartons to protect and maintain product integrity. Shipping individual or smaller groups of tiles or grid can impact the quality of tile or grid. Kanopi sells solely in carton format because of this reason. BONUS: It's always good to have extra material on hand for accidents or damage over time.
