Wall Angle

A Wall Angle in a ceiling suspension system is a metal bracket (typically L-shaped) used to support the perimeter of a suspended ceiling grid. It is installed along the walls to provide a secure anchoring point for the main tees and cross tees, ensuring the ceiling remains level and stable.

Perimeter Support: Acts as a boundary frame for the suspended ceiling grid.
Load Distribution: Helps evenly distribute the ceiling’s weight to the walls.
Alignment Aid: Ensures proper alignment and leveling of the ceiling tiles.
Attachment Point: Connects the ceiling grid to the wall for stability.

Commonly made of steel or aluminum, wall angles are essential for both acoustic ceilings and drywall suspension systems. They are fixed to walls with screws or adhesive, providing a sturdy base for the ceiling structure.
