I am in the process of installing a metal ceiling in my pole barn. I have several places where I had to cut openings for the angle iron for garage door track supports and opener supports. The cuts were ok but not perfect.

Any ideas how to make these look good?

I think some of the gaps are too big for silicone or caulk. i.e. 1/2 inch or a little more.

The ceiling is white ribbed metal.

its a shame you couldnt remove the door track supports, put the metal up then bolt the supports back in, thats what i did and no holes to cut and fill

Just caulk them and smooth it out before it dries. Trust me, nobody will look up. If they do, I doubt their vision will be good enough to pick it up, if they do and say something, tell them to GTFO.

Mines not perfect either.
