Ceiling Hangers

Ceiling hangers are small but essential parts that support suspended ceilings, acoustic panels, and ceiling grid systems. They help maintain level alignment, carry ceiling loads safely, and limit ceiling movement.

What Are Ceiling Hangers?

A ceiling hanger is a simple bracket or clip that supports a suspended ceiling beneath the main structure. Once installed, it supports part of the ceiling’s weight and maintains the grid at the correct height.

Some hangers are designed to absorb sound and vibration, while standard hangers focus on maintaining solid and aligned ceilings.

Types Of Ceiling Hangers

Ceiling hangers are available in two primary categories: acoustic and standard. Each serves a distinct role depending on the performance requirements of the ceiling system.

Acoustic Ceiling Hangers

Acoustic hangers have a built-in neoprene or rubber isolator that absorbs vibration. This reduces the amount of noise travelling through the ceiling and keeps unwanted sounds to a minimum.

This type is best for cinemas, studios, meeting rooms, and shared spaces where sound control is crucial.

Standard Ceiling Hangers

Standard hangers are used for most suspended ceilings where noise control isn’t required. They come in different styles, including threaded-rod, angle brackets, clip, and spring designs.

Their simple design makes it easy to fix them using basic tools. Once fitted, they securely hold ceiling grids and framing components.

How They Work

Both standard and acoustic hangers connect the secondary or suspended ceiling to the structure above.

In acoustic hangers, the isolator separates the two elements, allowing for easy noise filtering.

Standard hangers provide a direct, rigid link for conventional installations.
