Scott:

S I have a utility room that I am finishing. One of the last pieces is what
S type of ceiling to install. I originally was going to put in a drop
S ceiling, but am now considering throwing up some 1x3s and attaching ceiling
S tile. My reasons are that it will be an easier install, cheaper and will
S probably look nicer. My hesitation on this is that it would be nice to hav

S the suspended ceiling in this room to easily be able to get at where the
S electrical runs from the circuit box are, as the main circuit box is in thi

S rooom and all the circuits in the house run from this room.
S
S What are people's feelings towards having this easily accessible via a
S suspended ceiling as opposed to having to remove some pieces of "permanent"
S ceiling tile if there were to be a problem/upgrade needed electrically?

If there is even the remotest possibility I would need to access above
the ceiling I would try to have a passageway. How about a removable
panel like what is frequently used to get into an attic? You could
have your less expensive permanent ceiling with the convenience of a
suspended ceiling for access.
