how to join VJ board on ceiling?

[Jacqui4]

We are installing VJ board on our ceiling in our living room/kitchen area. It is an 8 metre span. Our builder has advised we will need to add a lead light strip to hide the join of the panels. Are there any other options as would like it to look as seamless as possible. Thank you

Hello @Jacqui4 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about installing VJ boards on your ceiling.

I've attached a link to the installation manual of the Easycraft panels - Easycraft - Product Fact Sheet & Installation Guideline. This has a reference to ceiling installations on page 9, and it specifies that a 1mm gap should be left in between sheet joins. I don't think it will be necessary to install LED light strips as the gap is very minimal. Once the ceiling is painted it should visually cover up that 1mm gap.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
