Cut 3d Ceiling Tiles

If you are installing a 3D tile ceiling and you end up with a space that is not right for the tiles you have, you can trim or cut the ceiling tiles to fit the space you need to cover. Cutting 3-D tiles is not difficult and can be done by any home carpenter.








Instructions


1. Use the tape measure to measure the space into which the ceiling tile needs to fit.


2. Transfer the measurement to the BACK of the ceiling tile you will be cutting.


3. Use a razor blade knife to score the ceiling tile along the required measurements. Make several shallow cuts along the line that you measured.


4. Bend the tile gently along the line that you scored until the tile begins to break. It will break along the line you scored.


5. Use the razor blade to shave off any excess tile material along the edge that was cut.
