->> It is nice and saves a lot of space. However, keep a light stand or two handy because there will be times when the placing of the rail will not be exactly where you want it.

->> You'll have to go through the drop ceiling to something more solid. Probaly using long threaded rods. Drop ceilings arent meant to support the kind of weight that the rails and lights will add up to. I think the specs on ours said the support had to be capable of holding 600lbs.
