Careful positioning of downlights away from joists/plasterboard joints is currently necessary to avoid regulatory non-compliance.
Joists often require downlights to be positioned no closer than 200mm from any joist or plasterboard joint.
This is difficult to police, restricts the freedom to position downlights anywhere in the ceiling, or means joist layouts need to be adjusted to suit downlight positions.
To combat the downlight distance from joist issue, only our i-Joists give you the freedom to position downlights anywhere in the floor with full regulatory peace of mind.
Staircraft’s fire rating approvals cover 15 different downlight manufacturers, allowing free positioning of downlights anywhere in the floor, provided they are no closer than 600mm apart with a density of no more than one downlight/m2.
Downlights can be positioned anywhere in the floor bays, immediately next to our i-joists or directly over plasterboard joints.
12.5mm plasterboard ceilings will save you money and make ceiling installation easier and less arduous.
