Pole Barn Steel Ceiling Liner Install Tips & Ideas

Steel Ceiling Liner is cheap and looks good and is available in different colors. When installing your steel ceiling liner, plan on what way you are going to enter your Post Frame Garage, Pole barn, shop, etc.. Make sure to start at the farthest point from that entry point and start from the farthest point to overlap the panels. You do this so you don't see the seam overlaps when you enter the building. I also went with 1 1/4" wafer head screws painted the same color as ceiling to give it a "Flat" appearance as pole barn screws stick up 1/4" .

The steel ceiling liner cost about $ .50 per square ft after rebates or around $.60 per sq ft without rebates. It can span 7-8 ft and still hold the insulation so it doesn't bow in the middle. My trusses are set 6 ft apart and they are flat as possible.

I didn't use a vapor barrier on ceiling as I wanted the condensation to escape my finished area , as my way of thinking is to get moisture out of the finished area. Think of a plastic bag with condensation inside. It will basically be like that and every time you add more liquid ( Car has rain on it , washing car inside, snow,etc) then that liquid will stay inside your building and ruin other items due to humidity . This is a highly debatable topic, so that is how I did my ceiling. Hopefully this helps or gives you an idea how to run yours!
