It looks like these are designed for a drywall ceiling. We have a heavily textured plaster ceiling that varies in thickness, perhaps 2" in some places

The fixtures have adjustable clips that hold them in the ceiling. The side of the can has graduated notches they fit into marked with the depths in inches. If I remember correctly the maximum depth was 1 1/2" or maybe 1 3/4". I'm not sure as I was installing them on 1/4" paneling and that didn't apply. I can tell you that they light a 14'x32' room quite well with LED bulbs and pull less than 1/2 amp. They are easy to install if you buy a 4" hole saw and a wood rasp. 4" is just a little too small but a rasp will open up the hole without much trouble or effort.

They stick very tight but I would think some Goo-Gone or other adhesive remover would help. I'd never stick these to a plaster wall, even painted drywall. The degree of marring or actual damage will depend on the surface you stick it to. I would keep to painted or sealed wood, or metal.

They are not candelabra sized bases, rather standard lamp size. They are great for ceiling lights with that size socket

Well they generally stick pretty well to my textured ceiling but a few did fall off. Honestly you've probably got about 50/50 chance of them sticking. Since the brick is painted it might stick better.

Yes the great thing about them is you can make them any length. Just make sure you have the depth. They hold a ton of weight as long as you have a good ceiling joists to anchor into. Hope this helps

Since mine are in the ceiling already, I had to check the website. http://www.dynamat.com/products_architectural_dynabox.html

Wall vents also got screws on both sides and these vents fits on those vents.these are adjustable to width.Maybe these will fit but I'm not sure how these gonna work for ceiling vents. If you use for ceiling vents it will direct air close to ceiling sideways.

we do not recommend these for a drop ceiling. they are too heavy and will cause the ceiling tile to bend

I just flipped the page on the calendar so it is funny you should ask! I suppose you could hang them from the ceiling but factor in the weight of the object being hung. For hanging plants I stick with the hangers meant for that although that means finding something other than gypsum board. I'm thinking it would work but not anything too heavy. I love these things because there are only tiny holes to be patched when painting, etc.

I don't think they would work well on textured walls. If a bathroom was well ventilated and didn't get steamed up during a shower, I think they would work. I haven't had any issues the two times I had to run a vaporizer in the room these are in.

Sorry Tyson...I'm not sure if these will work with plastered walls. We have drywalls.

Drilled a pilot hole through the thick ends- then screwed them in. For the ceiling- there is quite a bit of weight- so it might be difficult- the middle slats would be hard to screw though without breaking them.

My walls are textured, I think like the 'crow feet' texture, and these went on it just fine. I rubbed them a little more to make sure they were on there and going to stick, but I haven't had any problems with them yet. I only put them up Satruday, but they seem like they are going to stay!

These are awesome though expensive---I do not know about how it would work on a ceiling since you wedge it behind a panel of siding. I enclosed in my patio to make a man cave and wanted to hang pictures but I didn't want to drill into the wall and the Velcro picture holders made the picture stick out at an angle (due to the angling of the siding). These are good for your pictures with wire hangers or tabs. Hope this helps and good luck!

Personally I don't think they would work on a drop ceiling. It's not "solid". After applying the adhesive, I used a 4" paint roller to prss the tiles to an old accostic ceiling. Ditch the drop ceiling and put over the old ceiling, you will be sooo HAPPY. Our ceiling has been up fpr 1 year and no sign of problems. I'm 69 and had no problem putting up my ceiling. Going to expand to our other rooms

Most customers mount these on the ceiling and cover the room below. Hope that answers your question. Thanks
