PLAN THE OPENING.
KEEP THE ACCESS.

Useful product information and a clear starting point for installation coordination.

01 / BEFORE THE CEILING IS FINISHED

FOUR POINTS
TO COORDINATE.

The opening, the assembly, the installation detail and the handover belong in the same conversation.

  1. 01

    Define the clear opening.

    Start with the space needed to reach the service. Record clear width and height, the ceiling finish and the access required behind it.

  2. 02

    Coordinate the assembly.

    Confirm Ruby or Galo, infill, latch and surrounding ceiling construction. Check service clearance and the space needed for opening and movement.

  3. 03

    Follow the agreed detail.

    Use the project-approved fixing, support and finishing details for the selected assembly. Installation allowances and structural support need confirmation before work starts.

  4. 04

    Keep access usable.

    Check the agreed opening and closing sequence, retain the applicable documents, and identify the service area for the people who will maintain it.

Use the installation method approved for your selected assembly and project. This overview supports coordination; it does not specify fixing centres, structural loading or a fire-rated assembly.

02 / UNDERSTAND THE MOVEMENT

KNOW WHAT
NEEDS TO MOVE.

See the opening sequence before you coordinate the surrounding ceiling and services.

Maximum dimensions are clear openings and can be used in either orientation. Product animations are illustrative, not installation instructions.

03 / KEEP THE RIGHT INFORMATION

A USEFUL
REFERENCE.

Start with the published product choices. Confirm the project-specific construction before installation.

PROJECT-SPECIFIC INSTALLATION

THE NEXT DETAIL
IS YOUR PROJECT.

For an installation detail, share the selected system, clear-opening dimensions, infill, ceiling construction and the service you need to reach.

Discuss an installation requirement

Preliminary project drawings are distinct from approved installation details. Fabrication/shop drawings remain internal.
