Rulon Linear Wood Ceiling and Wall Systems

The "straight line" is a timeless design element that can be smoothly incorporated in any architectural style.  Rulon Linear Wood is the perfect choice to turn an ordinary ceiling into an extraordinary design element.

Rulon's patented factory manufactured Clip-Rail makes Rulon Linear Wood fast and easy to install. The Linear Wood ceiling system is lightweight, requiring less structural support than traditional nailed-in-place boards. The Rulon Linear boards simply snap onto the Clip Rail, which guarantees precise alignment and spacing of installed boards. Quick and easy installation lowers costs for Rulon's customers and improves their bottom line.

Rulon's regional sales managers and experienced engineering team are available to answer any question and help you specify Rulon Linear Wood in your next project.

    Special Considerations

    • Above Ceiling Access - Access above Linear Wood ceilings is obtained with standard access panels.  Full length boards can be removed for access to larger areas.

    • Lighting Fixtures - Both recessed incandescent and linear fluorescent fixtures are compatible with Linear Wood ceilings.  Lighting fixtures must be supported independently from the Linear Wood ceiling.
