Abstract

A support for supporting ceiling panels in a space having two non-parallel walls, including at least two channels arranged parallel to and spaced from each other, at least two telescopic channels respectively received in the two channels in a plurality of positions to vary the length thereof between the two non-parallel walls, and at least two panel holders supported on the two telescopic channels. The position of the respective panel holder may be varied along the telescopic channel so that ceiling panels may be suspended therefrom so that the space between the non-parallel walls can be essentially evenly divided by the appropriate distribution of the ceiling panels to thereby reduce the appearance of non-parallelity of the walls and ceiling panels.
