I remembered this thread from Meredithman and thought I would offer this option...

I'm in the process of doing an under deck ceiling system made by "Zip Up". This system is a "do it yourself" system and designed to be installed after your upper deck is installed which makes it nice. It's relatively inexpensive compared to other under deck systems that require access from the top and a lot less complicated to install with only three main pieces required.

The system can accept can style lighting and I decided to go with lights made by Trex which are their "rainscape" can lighting which are lightweight and plug and play and require no electrician to install as long as you have an outlet somewhere to plug in transformer.

I ended up purchasing online through Decks Direct as the only place in NH to get it was at Gilford Home Center. Unfortunately they could only get certain colors and sizes that I couldn't use which I thought was a little strange. Decks Direct had everything I needed and shipped it for free and was received in 3 days!!

I'll take and post some pics once its done but thus far I have found it to be a pretty easy and good system to install especially for those of you trying to finish off underneath an already completed deck where options are very limited...
