The apparatus is a transition member to cover the gap between ceilings at different levels which are also offset horizontally. A vertical section is supported at the edge of the lower ceiling and an attached angular section rises from the lower edge at a slope to reach and contact the upper ceiling. The general shape approximates a trough with one vertical and one sloped side. The lower edge of the vertical section and the upper edge of the angular section can include flanges and attached coupling channels which interlock with drywall adapters to facilitate attachment to drywall ceilings.

Transition member for varying ceiling levels

Miniature hollow beams for easy installation onto a conventional inverted T-bar subceiling framework are disclosed. The beams comprise two flat portions adapted to fit snugly against the T-bar rail, the beams having two hooked arms that snap over the edges of the rail and inwardly sloping, downwardly extending sidewalls that provide a decorative V-shaped or U-shaped appearance when sighted from below.

Decorative elements for subceilings

Cover unit for ceiling rails

Miniature beams for easy installation onto a conventional inverted T-bar subceiling framework are disclosed. The beams are composed of a flat portion or web adapted to fit snugly against the T-bar rail, the web having two hooked arms that snap over the edges of the rail and a plurality of elements extending from the web that provides a decorative pattern when sighted from below.

A clip for retaining a metal ceiling panel in position relative a ceiling runner. The clip will fasten to the horizontal flange of a ceiling runner or the lower end of the wall molding supporting a cut edge of a metal ceiling panel adjacent a wall structure.

Ceiling clip

Miniature beams for easy installation onto a conventional inverted T-bar subceiling framework are disclosed. The beams comprise a flat portion or web adapted to fit snugly against the T-bar rail, the web having two hooked arms that snap over the edges of the rail and at least one element extending from the web that has a decorative element at the end of its vertical extension.

The invention is directed to a transition element for use between an upper ceiling level and a lower ceiling level to form a two-level or multi-level ceiling. The transition element has a configured surface, particularly a curved surface. The transition element is mounted with the top of the curved surface located adjacent the plane of the upper ceiling level and the bottom of the curved surface being located in the plane of the lower ceiling level so that the curved surface forms a transition surface between the two ceiling levels. The transition element is held in position by the ceiling runners used to hold the ceiling boards in position.
