In general, it is considered important what we see immediately after awakening. It has some impact on the psyche and the mood, which we charge to the coming day. Therefore, the ceiling in the bedroom should look nice for the eyes. Tension covers have such properties. They are different in color and texture. Next, we will tell about how to make a stretch ceiling and about the features of its design.

Types and characteristics of ceilings

In addition to the ceiling itself, lighting is important. Much depends on the financial condition and their personal tastes. For example, the backlight can be placed only at the corners of the room or the massive chandelier is attached in the middle of the ceiling. The stretch ceiling itself is often not a monophonic, but multicolored. Each of the colors has a certain impact on the human psyche, the perception of information, mood. For example, red shades are considered the most aggressive. This is because this color increases blood pressure. Some doctors believe that it is the red that helps increase the tone, the rapid activation of the body in the morning and the large charge of cheerfulness. But you should not use this color in the bedroom in too large quantities. Because the effect can be exactly the opposite or too pronounced.

One of the most favorable colors for a person is blue. This is a symbol of the depths of the sky and the sea, a sign of pacification and calm. But it should not overdo it with the design of surfaces in blue-blue tones. Otherwise, the blue palette can have a strictly opposite effect, namely, it will act in oppressing or introduce into the state of depression.

There are several types of tensioning coatings. Consider some more details each of them:

• Glossy. These ceilings are made of PVC, which is why they have a smooth and smooth surface. Thanks to such properties, most of the objects and objects that are in the room will be reflected. Thus, visually its area will seem more. And the proper selected lighting in the bedroom will make the effect as expressed as possible. Therefore, this kind of ceiling is most suitable for small rooms. Pictures of stretch ceilings for the bedroom in the same case can be the most different.

• Matte. These ceilings have a slight rough surface, so do not so much reflect the surrounding items. They are suitable for use in various premises, regardless of their area and color design. Matte surface perfectly absorbs color. Therefore, we can say that these ceilings are very different from glossy pendant coatings. Matte stretch ceilings in the bedroom are the most popular. For the bedroom, this type of coatings is perhaps one of the most acceptable. After all, here he creates a feeling of comfort and tranquility. On such surfaces, the seams are practically not visible, and even if the designs of a two-level type are put.

• Satin. These coatings are distinguished by the fact that they are well combined with almost any solutions in the interior. If you correctly arrange the lighting, then stretch ceilings of this type will visually take the form of the material, externally similar to satin. Satin coatings on sale are represented by a large assortment and selection of shades.

• Textured. The ceilings of this type are able to make a general view of the bedroom more interesting and give it an individuality. Their texture can be performed "under silk", "granite", "natural stones" and others. An interesting solution is stretch ceilings 3D photo for the bedroom. You can still find stretching photo ceilings for the bedroom. Often, they use various variations and combinations of several simulation materials at once, which will often allow visually zoning the room space.

How stretch stretch ceilings

Tools for stretch ceiling

• In the process of mounting the stretch ceiling, namely, to do the holes in the profile, you will need a manual hole punch. The dimensions of this tool are designed for each profile size. Its core is made of high strength steel. The hole punch has a retainer that allows you to make holes in one direction and at an equal distance. They work very conveniently, if only because the holes can be made without the use of any additional devices. For this, the profile is enough to hold in one hand, and the tool itself is in another. Holes are obtained with a diameter of almost 5-7 mm.
• In addition to the hole in the installation, the ceiling will need a perforator that can operate in three modes. This is drilling, dragging and intensive drilling. The handle of this tool is usually equipped with a flexible rubber overlay, which allows you to adjust the work process.
• To wrap screws, you will need a screwdriver. In addition, a laser rangefinder will be useful for mounting. With this tool, it is very convenient to perform work, namely, carry out various calculations and measurements, as well as determine the size of the room where work is carried out. Such a device, as a rule, has a convenient illumination display, which allows the necessary measurements even with a lack of lighting at the indoor indoor.
• In addition, you will need a laser level, with which it is convenient to carry out markup. It is able to independently determine the irregularities of the surface.
• Metal detector will be useful. It is especially valuable to detect metal elements and structures in the walls. If he "finds" pieces of metal, it makes a certain sound. With this device, you can determine the presence of metal fasteners in the walls, cable, parts of the reinforcement, etc.
• One of the most necessary tools when installing two-level stretch bedroom ceilings is a blade. It happens several configurations. So, there are, long, short and special mounting blades. When installing it is useful for harpoon clamp.
• When carrying out work on tightening the ceilings there will be a need to maintain the necessary temperature regime in the room. To heat the room, heat generators or thermal guns are most often used.

The main stages of work

Next, consider some recommendations how to fix the stretch ceiling:

1. According to the rules, stretch ceilings are installed before the installation of plastic windows. This is especially true for windows that were manufactured not under current standards. The fact is that at high temperature, which is necessary for fixing stretch structures, it is the windows that can be damaged first.
2. It is still extremely undesirable that stretch ceilings are installed before or immediately after sticking wallpaper. The fact is that due to the high temperature, the canvas can dry too quickly, because of which they simply fall off.
3. If the walls need to be covered with paint, the final layer of paint mixes should be applied only after the installation of the tensioning will be completed.
4. In new homes it is recommended to pay attention to the density and tightness of the main ceilings. The presence of air flow through the slots during installation is unacceptable.

If it is not possible to free the bedroom from the furniture to provide convenient access to the walls, then it should be shifted into the center. It should be noted that from the surface of objects located in the room, to the ceiling, the distance should be more than 70 cm. If you have to endure all items at the time of installation work, it is necessary to take all necessary measures for its preservation.

Phased order of installation work:

1. Start follows from the profile attachment. First of all, you need to determine the lowest mark on the surface and to retreat the desired distance from it. After that, with the help of a construction level, a horizontal line is carried out through the entire room.
2. The fastening is first made on glue, and after that, at a distance of 60-80 mm, screws are screwed from each other.
3. Then each cloth of the ceiling to impart elasticity is heated to 60 degrees. Heat comfortably with a construction dryer. After heating, the cloth is fixed in the desired zone. It is best to start with one of the corners of the room. In addition, the layers of the material are attached to the profile at a distance of 70 mm. The remains must be cut carefully.

Next, consider some features of the choice and installation of lighting. Thus, stretching surfaces are perhaps one of the best options for the placement of lighting, and in particular, lighting devices. In addition, such a ceiling is suitable for some other parameters. But when installing lamps, you need to take into account some features of tensioning coatings, or rather, certain nuances of its installation. Without this, a good result is very difficult.

Important requirements:

1. So, the power of the lamps that will be attached to the stretch ceiling should not be more than 35 watts. Otherwise, you risk damage to the ceiling cloth. Do not forget that the material from which it is made does not withstand too high temperatures.
2. It should also be taken into account that there should be no less than 200 mm between the lamp and stretched material. This item concerns the reason that was voiced a little earlier.
3. It is also important that from the edge of the plaffle of the suspended chandelier to the coating remained a distance of about 150 mm. Otherwise, the film will warm too much.
4. If point lighting devices are attached to the ceiling, then it is important to correctly calculate their quantity. In order to calculate this, you can use all the dimensions of the future ceiling. So, its area needs to be divided into two, i.e. It turns out no more than one device for every two square meters of the surface.
5. Still consider that when choosing a model of the lamp, you should define the distance between the main overlap and the stretched ceiling. It is important that the part of the basic overlap, located behind the ceiling, is easily placed there with a small margin.
6. It is also important that the appearance of the selected lighting appliances approached the rest of the design of the room.

There are certain requirements for the location of lighting devices. Basically, they are their own for each case and are associated with the configuration or design of the room. But there are the rules that are suitable for any occasion. They should be followed to achieve a good result.

Recommendations for the placement of lighting devices:

1. So, when using spots, it is necessary to arrange them so that everything is highlighted evenly, i.e. In order not to remain too bright or vice versa, too dark.
2. Recommended near the bed, namely, on the headboard there are several lighting devices. They will be useful for convenient reading. Therefore, their power will need to be calculated on the basis of the need for residents of the room. If you place LED lamps, you can save on electricity.
3. It is also worth knowing that the embedded backlight fits well in the design of the bedroom. It can not only make the appearance of the room more stylish, but also to light it with smooth and soft light.
4. It should also be taken into account that you can completely abandon the central chandelier. To do this, it is necessary to provide for the possibility of separate inclusion of several groups of lighting devices. Thanks to this, you can only cover the sections of the rooms that are necessary. This is especially useful when there is no need for bright light.
5. Sofa on the ceiling in the bedroom can be located as you please. Therefore, it is possible to break the room into separate zones when they are careed. It will be still useful if you need partial lighting of the room.

The final cost of the stretch ceiling is made up of several factors. The calculation usually do people who perform installation work. And this is possible only after the preliminary measurements. At the same time, the cost of the required material and the number of corners indoors should be taken into account. The cost of decorative ribbons and the number of light sources has a certain effect. An important factors affecting the final price includes the height of the ceilings in the room, the complexity of the installation and the design features of the surface.

And finally, it should be said that stretch ceilings have such important qualities as reliability, aesthetic and strength. This is their indisputable advantage. Their use is fully justified in the bedrooms. They are safe for human health. Certain quality of stretch surfaces allow them not to pass moisture. In addition, the ceiling of PVC does not absorb various smells. These are the main advantages that allow the use of these coating to finish most of the premises.
