Ceiling Hung Mounting Style:
Ceiling Hung bathroom stalls are favored installations where easy maintenance and unobstructed floor surfaces are a priority. This mounting style provides a very clean appearance due to a completely open floor area.
Proper installation requires attachment to structural ceiling support. This layout is suitable for bathrooms with low ceilings and is not recommended for ceiling heights over 8 feet. The restroom compartments are not connected to the floor, allowing easy access to the floor areas between stalls.
Ceiling Hung mounting style is ideal for modernization, where a drop ceiling or open span construction can be used

| Alternative Names | Ceiling Anchored. |
| Structural Design | The partitions are anchored solely to the structural ceiling and walls, creating a distinct “floating” appearance. Pilasters are typically secured to the ceiling using hardware such as threaded rods, hex nuts, washers, and U-type brackets. |
| Key Advantages | Because it has no connection to the floor, it leaves the floor area completely clear and unobstructed. This makes restroom maintenance, mopping, and floor cleaning incredibly easy and efficient. It also offers a clean, contemporary, and unique modern look. |
| Installation Requirements | Proper installation strictly requires pre-installed structural ceiling support, such as structural steel. During the planning phase, exact measurements must be taken from the finished floor to the finished ceiling. |
| Clearance Needs & Limitations | This layout is not recommended for ceiling heights over 8 feet. When configuring the layout, it also requires a minimum of a 1-inch stile-to-panel corner offset. |
| Ideal Environments | Highly recommended for modernized spaces, low-ceiling washrooms, and areas where drop ceilings or open-span construction can be utilized. It is especially effective when used in conjunction with wall-hung plumbing fixtures to maximize floor access. |
