BISD C.F. Thomas ES, Dallas, TX

The contractor was tasked with installing copper lines and ceiling cassette’s in a school. For this project the contractor, Birdville ISD, had no prior experience using Gripple but decided to run their copper lines with the Fast Trak system because of it’s time-saving benefits.

The Gripple Fast Trak system is up to six times faster to install than traditional suspension systems and saved the contractor over 138 hours in installation time. The system is also available in pre-measured and pre-cut lengths. The technicians were able to just grab and go, allowing for a bottleneck free trapeze installation. The Fast Trak brackets feature indicators at each end of the bracket offer reference points when marking fixing points on the ceiling; level markers on tracks every 5 slots (2 1/4” increments) for easy leveling without tools. The project also featured the UniGrip Central Exit for suspending all ten of his classroom units.
