4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks, Paola. From the context, I think they must be talking about lighting in suspended ceilings."

false ceilings

It would usually appear as controsoffitto, but in this case cielo, which also means the ceiling of a room, has been used. Cielino should mean a small ceiling. As it refers to elevators I think the term small is rather superfluous here.
