STANDARD CEILINGBOARD HANGER
The revolutionary Ceilingboard Hanger Tool consists of a set (2 pairs) of plasterboard and joist clamps. Designed to enable the user to position a full 2400mm x 1200mm heavy sheet of plasterboard up onto ceiling joists measuring up to 50mm (2") wide for fixing singlehandedly.
A standard 2400mm x 1200mm x 12.5mm sheet of plasterboard is a bulky and heavy (approx 25kg) item of building material that is used to close off ceilings when fixed to the joists or rafters. It would normally take two operatives to complete this difficult task and at the same time expose them to possible long-term neck and back injuries. This can be confirmed by speaking to any working or retired plasterer.
The use of the ceilingboard hanger makes this difficult task much easier – to the extent that the installation of plasterboards to ceilings can now be completed simply by one person with little or no risk of injury to themselves and in a fraction of the time it takes two operatives. The ceiling board hangers are made in England of high quality, heavy duty zinc-plated steel for strength and durability. They consist of two matching sets of clamps – two joist clamps and two plasterboard clamps – one set attaches to the joists and the other set attaches to the plasterboard. The pair connect and create a hinge that allows you to walk the board up to the ceiling and hold in place with a T-Bar.
Using The Ceilingboard Hanger Means
No struggling with heavy boards
No more lifting and balancing large heavy plasterboards
Reduce your chances of injury and long term suffering
No more guessing board positions or screwing locating plates into joists
Clamps locate the plasterboards exactly ready for the next board
DETAILED INFORMATION, BENEFITS, AND SPECIFICATION
- These revolutionary new plasterboard tools offer a number of significant benefits when undertaking the extremely difficult task of lifting large heavy sheets of plaster boards up to ceiling joists.
- The patented clamps are designed to enable one person to raise full sized 2400mm x 1200mm x 12.5mm plasterboard sheets weighing up to 25KG, up to the joists and into position ready to be fixed in the usual manner.
- This alone will save double expensive labour costs and at the same time help to reduce the risk of back, neck, shoulder and arm injuries.
- The ceiling board hanger sets are compact and portable, easily fit in pockets or can be belt hung. Works on joists up to 2” (50mm). Sets to suit 3” (75mm) and 4” (100mm) timber joists are also available by bespoke order. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
- This set comprises of two board clamps which quickly attach to the edge of the plaster board and two clamps which attach to the joists.
- When attached, it’s simply a matter of easing the board up and along until the clamps align and clip together. The plasterboard can then be gently pushed (hinged) upwards by hand and held in place with a ready-made “T” bar. It is then automatically square with the joists and in position ready for screwing firmly in place.
- No heavy lifting has been required.
- The plasterboard sheets can now be fitted in minutes and the “quick clamp, hinge and push” method can be used to complete the whole ceiling. Small board areas have never presented a problem when finishing off and the clamps are not needed in this instance.
- The clamps are quality made in England of heavy-duty zinc electroplated steel and are strong and durable for building site works and DIY enthusiasts alike. They can be carried in your pockets, on your belt or packed away easily in your toolbox. No plastic is used in any of our tools in this heavy board lifting operation, just heavy-duty steel for strength and durability. The all-new must have tool for everyone contemplating this work.

HOW TO USE THE CEILINGBOARD HANGER
Fit the two specially designed clamps to the plasterboard at predetermined positions, then fit the two joist clamps in corresponding positions on the selected joist/rafter and then simply drag the board, elevating it at the same time so that the clamps meet and lock on to each other. The board is now securely held at one end by the metal clamping system. All that needs to be done now is to simply push the board forwards and upwards and support it at the ceiling with a “T” bar.
