With the Kinook dropped ceiling box kit, it is easy to create the metallic frame for a dropped ceiling. The frame can be then mounted with plasterboard, wood or MDF panels.
Build it in the shape and dimensions that best fit your needs. It’s ideal for fibre optic star ceiling projects with lack of access to the void area above the ceiling.
Kinook is an innovative DIY solution for your interior design needs
The DIY dropped ceiling box kit includes the following items:
Small block (16 pcs)
Large block (4 pcs)
The metallic studs (those used for drywall partition wall construction) are not included in the kit. As C-studs dimensions vary from one brand to another, check our compatibility table before purchasing.

Dropped ceiling light box kit installation
The construction of the box can be done according to two different assembly methods depending on the thickness of the box you want to obtain. If you’re creating the structure with the fibre optic light engine concealed inside, consider the height of the light engine and always add an access hatch on the least visible side of the structure so the light engine can be serviced if needed.
Materials needed for false ceiling installation:
C-studs (not included in the kit). As C-studs dimensions vary from one brand to another, check our compatibility table before purchasing.
Panels: plasterboard, wood, MDF, etc.
Screws
Finishing materials (paint, fabric)
Option 1: Fixed height installation
The thickness of the box is set by the length of the long Kinook block (115mm)
Option 2: Adjustable height installation
The thickness of the box is set by the length of the vertical studs
Installation tips for drop ceiling box light kit
Telescopic support can be used to properly position and support the horizontal panel.
A small access hatch can also be installed. Preferably position on a side non-visible.
For plasterboard ceiling use a detector to locate studs (or beams) inside the ceiling. Screw the dropped ceiling studs preferably on these studs/beams.
