No More Hoist Cables or Straps!
Eden Prairie High School, Eden Prairie, MN Architect: Cuningham Group/Schrock DeVetter
NO. 2080 CENTER-ROLL® CURTAIN
The finest divider curtain available for today’s modern gymnasium and field house applications. No more hoist cables, straps or overhead support rollers, this truly revolutionary and unique hoisting system eliminates any high stressed mounting points on your overhead structure.
The Ultimate in Compact Storage!
The Center-Roll® curtain rolls neatly and compactly to within 14" of the ceiling or overhead support structure for maximum clearance. When support structures allow, curtain will roll up through a one foot wide opening and store above ceiling areas to further enhance the aesthetics of your installation.
Rolls Smoothly and Quickly from the Center
The curtain rolls very neatly on an anodized aluminum tube located in the center of the curtain. As the aluminum tube rotates, it moves the curtain up, rolling up the top and bottom sections simultaneously. This design allows the Center-Roll® to roll-up twice as quickly as a standard curtain. The assembly is extremely quiet, operates at 30ft/min., features automatic overheating protection, and is permanently lubricated for a maintenance-free operation. The torque reaction of this drive assembly is taken up by either a wall-guide/torque carriage, or a torque strap-arm arrangement, both of which roll up with the curtain.
Fabric Raises Without Straps, Cables or Support Rollers
The solid section of the curtain is furnished in Porter’s 19 oz Flexivide® vinyl fabric and the mesh section in Fleximesh® vinylcoated mesh designed with an approximate 45 to 50% open, air breathing area to provide both light and air transfer. Access openings or contour-type configurations over bleacher areas may be provided at any location below the Center-Roll® batten tube. Lower support tube may be furnished with optional 3/4" thick padding for added safety. Available in your choice of solid and mesh combinations, as well as a variety of colors to choose from.
FLEXIMESH® CURTAIN MESH MATERIAL
