Optional Steel Suspension Cable Assembly
You can also choose to suspend your Acoustic Panel with 6 or 12 steel suspension cables. Without the suspension cables, your panel will hang between 2" and 3" off of the ceiling when using the included installation hardware.
Angle Iron Runner Sizes
Runners are available in the following sizes: 2 ft, 3 ft, 4 ft, 5 ft, 6 ft, 7 ft. (8 ft by phone order with LTL Freight shipping only). Please select the appropriate runner length to match the longest side of your Acoustic Panel in the drop down menu under the Price and Order tab. For 8-foot panels, to accommodate FedEx Ground shipping, we recommend 2 5-foot runners per 8-foot side (overlapped by 2 feet for strength), for a total of 4 runners per panel.
Custom Size Runners
If you require specially cut angle iron runners for your custom sized panel, the price will be the same as the next larger runner size. For example, if you require a 7.5 foot runner, you will be charged the 8 foot runner price.
Installation Information
- Runners must go on the longest side of the acoustic panel. For example, if your panel is 2 ft x 4 ft you would select a 4 ft runner kit to support a panel this size.
- In recording rooms and music studios, typical installation is directly above the listening position or work space. We recommend installing one or several Acoustic Clouds to efficiently cover the width of the workspace below.
- For home theaters, Acoustic Clouds should be mounted at first reflection points (i.e on the ceiling halfway between the speakers and the listening position).
- This installation hardware is not suitable for hanging fiberglass and mineral wool insulation boards, polyester acoustic panels, or Hardened Edge Panels. For mounting hardware for insulation boards or Hardened Edge Panels, take a look at our RotoFast Insulation Cloud Anchors.
Safety
Warning: Improper installation of acoustic panels can create a safety hazard and result in injury or death. ATS Acoustics provides general information about installation methods. This information and any included fasteners may not be applicable to some products, substrates, or installation circumstances. Each customer is responsible to determine safe installation methods for their specific situation, and to comply with local building codes.
