Hang A Scissor Clip On A Drop Ceiling

If you have an item you want to hang from your drop ceiling, use a scissor clip. These durable clips clip onto the ceiling grid's T-bar, which then hangs any item weighing 50 pounds or less. Before you install the scissor clip, make sure you know precisely where you want to put it. It is not recommended to remove and reinstall the scissor clip, although some manufacturer's allow for occasional removal.








Instructions


1. Set up a ladder underneath the drop ceiling in the location you want to hang a scissor clip. Slide the two ceiling tiles resting on the T-bar aside.


2. Separate the scissor clip's two halves. Position them around the T-bar with the hook dangling below the ceiling grid. Squeeze the two halves with your fingers until they snap together.


3. Slide the two ceiling tiles back into place and lower them into the grid.
