3800.366.4327 www.hunterdouglascontract.com/ceilings

DESIGN FLEXIBILITY

Screen ceilings can be designed with 100 mm, 150

mm or 200 mm (nominal 4", 6" or 8") panels. Panel

size, spacing, angle and color can be used to create

a visual focal point or coordinate with other design

elements. Screen ceilings are available in a variety

of colors. Custom colors available upon request.

Screen ceilings with pivoted carriers are ideal for

sloped ceilings.

DURABLE CONSTRUCTION

Luxalon screen ceilings are manufactured from

durable roll-formed aluminum and finished with a

scuff-resistant polyester paint to provide a long, low

maintenance service life. Three suspension systems,

moveable, fixed and pivot, are engineered to accom-

modate a variety of job site conditions. 100 mm and

150 mm (nominal 4" and 6") panels are available

for exterior applications.

QUICK INSTALLATION

Screen ceilings are designed with a minimum num-

ber of parts for quick and easy installation. Movable,

fixed and pivot carrier systems can be installed in

combination. Carrier systems are suspended by

hanger wire in the conventional manner. Panels

install in carriers by simply sliding into position.

EASY PLENUM ACCESS

Screen ceilings installed with Luxalon’s moveable

carrier system provide easy access to lighting and

HVAC components in the ceiling plenum. Panels are

simply slid along the carrier system to gain access.

The moveable system facilitates maintenance of

mechanical components and reduces damage to

panels over the life of the ceiling.

IDEAL FOR RENOVATIONS

Luxalon screen ceilings are ideal for renovation

projects. Fixed or moveable carriers can be

mechanically fastened to existing T-grid, or

renovation clips and hanger wire can be used

to suspend the carriers from the ceiling grid.

Luxalon® Baffle ceilings offer best-in-class vane and carrier options that make them ideal for locations requiring a

one-way plenum mask or interesting lighting effects. They are particularly suited to large spaces, including airports,

convention centers, shopping malls, sports facilities, and retail stores. Our adjustable carrier system allows baffles to

slide back for easy access to lighting, sprinklers and diffusers. In addition, baffle ceilings integrate easily with our

complete line of Luxalon metal systems, enabling easy, comprehensive design for adjoining areas.

SCREEN CONFIGURATIONS SYSTEM COMPONENTS

ELEVATION CHANGES

Luxalon® screen ceilings utilizing the pivot

carrier system are ideal for projects requiring

changes in ceiling height. Ceilings can be

angled to 45º. Pyramids, inverted pyramids,

truncated pyramids, truncated inverted

pyramids and other geometric shapes

can be easily designed and installed with

Hunter Douglas’ screen ceiling system.

SPECIAL SITUATIONS

Screen ceilings can be used to create

special patterns and borders. Basket weave

and herringbone are two typical patterns

used to create special ceiling or border

treatments. Radial applications can also

be accommodated by using standard

ceiling T-grid and a special pivot clip.

V-100

V-100 panels are 100 mm (3.937") deep

and available 100 mm, 150 mm, or 200 mm

(nominal 4", 6" and 8") on-center. V-100

panels are available for interior and exterior

applications. Clips to lock panels into posi-

tion are available for exterior, moveable

carrier and pivot carrier applications.

V-150

Luxalon® V-150 panels are 150 mm

(5.906") deep and available 100 mm,

150 mm, or 200 mm (nominal 4", 6" and

8") on-center. V-150 panels are available

for interior and exterior applications. Clips to

lock panels into position are available for

exterior, moveable carrier and pivot carrier

applications.

V-200

V-200 panels from Hunter Douglas Contract

are 200 mm (7.874") deep and available

100 mm, 150 mm, or 200 mm (nominal

4", 6" and 8") on-center. V-200 panels are

available for interior applications only. Clips

to lock panels into position are available

for moveable carrier and pivot carrier

applications.

ACCESSORIES

A special panel splice allows visually

unlimited panel length. The splice is simply

slid in place over the over-lapped area of

two panels. A bulb detail is also available

to soften the appearance of the screen

ceiling. The bulb is slid over the fluted area

of each panel.

VARYING SCREEN HEIGHT

Panel depth can be varied to create ceilings

with step or roll patterns. 100 mm, 150 mm

and 200 mm (nominal 4", 6" and 8") panels

can also be used to add visual interest by

varying on-center spacing and color.

CARRIER SYSTEMS


CARRIER SYSTEMS

MOVEABLE CARRIER

Hunter Douglas’ moveable carrier system is

ideal for use where quick, easy access to the

plenum area is important. Panels slide along

the carrier system to provide access to the

plenum area. Panels can be spaced 100 mm,

150 mm or 200 mm (nominal 4", 6"

or 8") on-center.

The Luxalon® moveable carrier system is

designed for interior applications with flat

ceilings and can accommodate panel lengths

from 2' to 12'. Carriers are available in

lengths of 5 m (16.4'). Maximum on-center

measurement between carriers is 60". Main

tee cross bracing is used to provide system

stability to every 60".

Accessibility: Lateral

FIXED CARRIER

Fixed carrier systems are designed for flat

interior and exterior applications. Panels can

be spaced 100 mm, 150 mm, or 200 mm

(nominal 4", 6" or 8") on-center. 50 mm

(1.968") or 75 mm (2.953") panel spacing

can be accomplished by fastening staggered

100 mm (3.937") or 150 mm (5.906")

carriers together.

The fixed carrier system can accommodate

panel lengths from 2' to 20'. Only V100 or

V150 panels may be used for exterior

applications, in which case a special screen

panel clip must be used to lock panels in

place. Fixed carriers are available in lengths

of 5 m (16.4'). Maximum on-center

measurement between carriers is 82".

Accessibility: Downward

PIVOT CARRIER

Hunter Douglas’ pivot carrier system is

designed for projects with sloped ceilings.

System flexibility makes simple changes

of ceiling level, as well as complicated

geometric shapes, easy to design and install.

Pivot carrier systems accommodate ceiling

angels to 45º. Panels attach to free-swinging

screen panel clips and can be spaced 100,

150, or 200 mm (nominal 4", 6" or 8")

on-center. The Luxalon® pivot carrier system

is designed for interior applications and can

accommodate panel lengths from 2' to 20'.

Pivot carriers are available in lengths to 12'.

Maximum on-center measurement between

carriers is 48". Cross tee bracing every 48"

is used to provide system stability.

RENOVATION INSTALLATION

SYSTEM

Luxalon® screen ceilings can be used in

projects with existing T-grid ceiling systems.

Fixed and moveable carrier systems can

be mechanically fastened directly to the

existing T-grid. Grid clips and hanger wire

can also be used to suspend carriers from

the ceiling grid.

Existing ceiling panels are often painted a

dark color to create the illusion of depth

for this type of installation.

LIGHTING

Light fixtures can be installed above or

below Hunter Douglas screen ceilings.

Screen ceilings provide dramatic lighting

effects when used to baffle natural or

electric light sources. Depending upon the

desired lighting effect, the area above the

ceiling and the mechanical components

are painted white or a dark color.

Artificial lighting concepts frequently used

are listed below.

Fluorescent Lighting

• Strip Fixture

• Modular Fixture

Incandescent Lighting

• Plenum Spot/Flood Fixture

• Pendant Fixture

• Pendant Track Fixture

SYSTEM COMPONENTS


SPECIAL APPLICATIONS

HEATING AND VENTILATION

SYSTEMS

Heating and ventilation systems for screen

ceilings are typically designed with drop and

return air supplies located above the ceiling

plane. Duct work and diffusers should be

suspended separately from the building

structure above. Diffusers are typically

located 18" to 24" above the ceiling.

Locating diffusers too close to the ceiling

can disrupt the diffuser’s throw pattern.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Luxalon® screen ceiling systems are simple

to install. The table and drawing to the right

provide recommended carrier spacing, hang-

er wire spacing, and maximum cantilever for

each carrier type and module size.

tative for exterior screen ceiling data and
