Industrial Blackout Curtains

vinyl-blackout-curtains

OVERVIEW

Industrial blackout curtains are the ideal solution for keeping light out of sensitive areas. The thick materials are configured for almost any layout that you require for your application. The blackout curtains can also roll side to side on our industrial curtain track system or be static mounted. Unlike thick insulated curtains which are bulky and hard to move, these light weight curtains are easy to move and can be collapsed into a small space when they are pulled back.

Common Layouts

AKON can supply just about any layout you can think of. Below are some common layout styles. They can be single sided, double-sided, triple sided, four-sided or multiple straights to create complete photo backdrop enclosures. You simply inform AKON about your desired design and we will have it fabricated exactly as you need it for a perfect commercial curtain install. For customized layouts, sketch your design and upload it using our online RFQ form. See button below.

How to Measure

Width

  • Measure the distance that you are trying to cover
    • Using our input form input that dimension.
    • Then slect the amount of fullness you want and we will do the math for you for perfect drape.
    • When you receive your quote, the hardware width will be the actual width and the curtains will be wider for the drape.

Height

  • Measure the distance from the floor to the mounting point
    • We will subtract 3" to account for the hardware to keep your curtain just off of the ground.
    • If you have a sloped ceiling please provide us with the high point height and the low point height. We will assume it is a linear straight slope.

Common Questions


What is the spacing from the bottom of the track to the top of the curtain?
  • Standard curtains have approximately 3.75 to 1″ of a gap from the bottom of the track to the top of the curtain.
Spacing from Track

What are the dimensions of the track?

Can the track be cut to size as required on site?
  • Yes, the track is made to be field cut on site using a hack saw or sawzall.
How much width does the radius corner add to the length?
  • A radius corner has a 2' radius. So if you input 10' for curtain length you will end up with 12' when you attach the radius corner. If that is too long then simply cut the track onsite and the radius will still work.
Can you make a custom radius corner
  • Custom radius corners are not possible at this time. If you application must have custom radius corners you might considering getting a curtain track from another supplier and the curtains from AKON.
How does the track go together?
  • The track is modular in design and will arrive in pieces that have a simple bolt together design.
How close together do I need the track supports?
  • The track should be supported approximately every 5' with a track support. The farther apart the track supports, the greater the deflection. If you have a relatively short in height curtain then you could space the supports out a little farther. You will receive enough track supports with your order to achieve this 5' spacing.
Can I simply drill straight through the track and into the ceiling / structure?
  • Yes. This is called a flush mount install and is very common. Simply drill through the middle of the track and use a small wood screw, bolt, Tek screw...ect into your structure. Space the holes about every 3-5'.
How hard is it to install the curtain track?
  • It is very easy. All of the components simply fit into each other and connect with set screws. The installation is very intuitive. If you have any difficulty simply call or email us and we will walk you through the process.

Testimonials

"AKON had the quality that was lacking with our previous industrial curtain supplier. We run a fortune 500 company that relies on zero downtime. The AKON industrial curtain system just lasts longer and is made of better materials. I informed purchasing that if its not from AKON, then we don't want it!" - Fred Dixon 

"The AKON wash bay curtains look great! No one was as helpful or as knowledgeable as your staff and that was a big deciding factor for us. When the wash bay curtains arrived the installation was flawless. We now have a wash bay curtain that we can be proud of and that will last for many years." - Jackie McGarb

"THE BEST!!! Hands Down!!. The curtains have stronger grommets and the vinyl is the best quality that we have seen. The service is also top notch and we have answers to our questions instantly. You can tell this is a well run company and they have taken care of all the projects that we have thrown at them." - Mike Richards
