Building an Archway, building a Barrel Vault, building a Groin Vault is just another day at Archways and Ceilings Made Easy!

Building archways, barrel vaults, and groin vaults are Archwaysandceilings.com 's specialty (click here to see website). Today, as I was out for a drive, I decided to stop by and check in on some framed houses to perhaps strir up some business. As I arrived at my first stop I quickly recognized that this builder was a customer of ours. There was arches everywhere! I stopped in just as they were installing some arches that they recieved the day before. They quickly figured out who I was and were instantly eager to pose for some pictures. Let see how easy it was for them to install some archways, a small barrel vault and 3 groin vaults:

In this first picture, I saw a gentleman install this small elliptical barrel in an entry way in less than 5 minutes. It was amazing!

In these next few pictures I captured the framer installing the first strut in a groin vault!
He simply shot 2 nails in the top and 2 more in each of the sides. Then he was off to his next strut!

Here is an example of 2 different groin vaults the framer installed earlier that day. I found one of these Groin Vaults in the Master Bath and the other in a Vestibule of the Master Bedroom.

The installation time for each groin was roughly 30 minutes for each! Not bad!!

The last picture I was able to take was one of a Half-Circle arch or also known as an "Half-Round." I only took one photo of the Half-Circle arch because there was at least 20 to 25 of these types of arches installed at the jobsite. The framer mentioned that these babies were the easiest to install. He estimated that for all 20 arches or so , took him about 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours to install. Not counting his breaks he chuckled!

Over the last several months businesses have been promoting "Going Green!" You have probably experienced your bank or credit card Company promoting paperless statements, took part of an educational conference, seen posters, or advertisements at your local grocery store. At first I was naive about "Going Green", and didn't pay to much attention to it. But now that I have a little girl I feel the personal and social responsibility to our environment. We do it for our kids and our kids' kids. This is why I am happy to announce that all or our products are Green!
