With the Ceiling Thief, you can position the drop ceiling support extrusions directly above a full height door. When the Ceiling Thief is positioned above a full height door, your drop ceiling support accommodates a ceiling that appears directly above the door with no stack tile in between.
Note: Ceiling support extrusions provide perimeter support for drop ceilings. However, they do not include drop-in ceiling tiles, t-bars, and other ceiling components.
