Material Options

blackout-vinyl-curtains

Vinyl

In areas where getting the curtain dirty is a concern we have the 18oz Vinyl curtains. Its slick surface makes it easy to clean and it is resistant to water spray. Unlike the Poly Premiere its surface is more reflective and shiny. This is the workhorse material that is made for less than ideal conditions. $$

Premium Velour

This luxurious 14oz fabric is ideal for stage backdrops, dividing a space or creating a high-end look with fabric. It's inherently flame resistant, 100% blackout, lightweight and washable. It's the ideal fabric for commercial curtains that need to look great at a reasonable price. $$

Easy Install

Privacy curtains come with grommets at the top making hanging the curtains quick and easy with or without the curtain track. Screens can stand on their own and take seconds to set up.

 Inexpensive

Privacy curtains are about 1/3rd of the cost of other separation methods such as rigid walls or panel systems and are easy to store. The privacy screens are good for mobile applications and can fit in any truck.

Separate Workers

Privacy curtains and screens are ideal for separating workers for welding, washing, packaging, and many other operations. Different workers will be able to conduct their operations in piece.

Control Noise

Privacy curtains help reduce noise due to the thick PVC they are made from which makes for a more comfortable work environment. Other benefits include temperature, dust, and pest control.

Easy Operation

Industrial-Privacy-Curtains

Roll Open When Not Needed

The work area privacy curtains can also feature a sliding track and trolley. With this feature, you can slide the curtains back with ease just like you would with a shower curtain. In fact, each industrial privacy curtain is custom made to your requirements using a wide choice of vinyl materials, configurations, and colors. You tell us what you want to accomplish, and will provide you with exactly what you need.

For Ultra Secure Areas

  • For secure areas, the privacy curtains can feature any graphic or text that you want displayed on them to warn anyone who might enter that the area is a secure area.
  • Anchoring straps with steel floor anchor mounts can be installed for a more permanent structure.
  • The industrial privacy curtain can be equipped with a key and lock which will allow only authorized persons to enter. (This can be purchased with the floor anchor straps)

Keep Eyes Out of Private Areas

For Unsightly Areas

  • Choose from a wide range of materials and integrated features.
  • Strip doors can be added to the industrial curtains to allow people and forklifts to pass through.
  • Curtains can be freestanding or they can be hung from any above structure.
  • Use one curtain wall or 4 curtain walls to form a complete cubical of industrial work area privacy.

Work Area Privacy Curtains Benefits

If you take pride in your work area and are concerned about a particular area which is unsightly, then you can install our privacy curtains to keep a professional looking work environment. Why curtains? Because they are a lot less expensive than traditional fixed walls and a lot more flexible. Also, when you no longer need the privacy curtains, you can quickly take them down and use them somewhere else.

With a low initial investment and a professional look, they are the best option for large work areas up to 100’ x 100’ down to small work cells which maybe only 8’ x 8’. In addition, you generally will not need a building permit for work area privacy curtains, unlike rigid walls.

Curtain Features

 

Clear Vision Panels

Vision panels can be added to allow for a clear line
of sight through the curtain. Standard vision panels
are 54" in height but can be made to any size.

 

Curtain Valances

A valance is made from the same material as the
lower curtain. They are used to seal the opening
above the curtain. This is generally the space from
the roof deck to the bottom of the joist or purlin.
They can be rectangular or follow the roof's slope.

 

Floor Sweeps

A floor sweep seals the open area between the
curtain and the floor. It attaches to the main
curtain by Velcro. They are 6″ tall and as wide
as the entire length of the curtain. These are
ideal for controlling dust, fumes, odors, and
other undesirable elements. They can also be
replaced in the future should the friction from
the floor wear them out.

 

bottom curtain anchor

Anchor Straps

Velcro straps hold your curtain in place for
a light breeze or power washing. These
anchors feature Velcro straps that loop
through a D-ring, which is anchored into the
cement floor. Typically spaced every 4'.

 

Seal Velcro

Seal Velcro, also known as adhesive Velcro, sticks
onto your curtain and can be installed in the field.
Please note that this is not ideal for cold
temperature applications or high-frequency use.

 

Chain Weights

If you have a slight breeze or are power washing
near the curtain, then we can add a galvanized
3/16" chain weight to the bottom of the curtain.

 

Connecting Curtains

Velcro

Velcro is used to connect curtain sections
together to form larger curtain walls. The
Velcro also serves as an access points for
larger curtains and makes them easier to
install.

 

Magnets

Seal magnets are an ideal way to attach curtains
to each other or adjacent steel walls and beams.
Best utilized in dusty areas that would clog up
Velcro.

 

Entry Options

Sewn-In Strip Doors

Strip doors that are sewn into the curtain are
Ideal for light foot traffic. This allows for quick
movement of people into and out of the
industrial curtains.

 

Free-Standing Strip Doors

For motorized traffic, a free-standing steel frame
strip door is ideal. The steel frame takes the
stress off of the curtain wall, ensuring longevity
and performance for motor traffic and high use.

 

Swinging Impact Doors

A free-standing industrial swinging door can
also be provided for access. Also known as
impact doors, these heavy-duty doors can
take a lot of abuse from carts, forklifts, or
heavy foot traffic. View Styles

 

Roll-Up Doors

Supported with a free-standing steel frame,
the power roll-up doors can be opened and
closed via remote from a forklift. Door

of opening and closing, speed requirements
and size. View Styles

How to Measure

Width

  • Measure the distance that you are trying to cover
    • We will generally add 5% to this dimension to give your curtain proper drape.
    • When you receive your quote, the hardware width will be the actual width.

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 want the floor sweep option, we also subtract the 3". This will allow the floor sweep to lay slightly on the floor while the main curtain is just off of the floor.
      • 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. More Info On Here On Slope Ceilings

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 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?
The radius corner is 24” diameter. The radius corner will add 2 feet to each dimension.
For example, if you have 120” of curtain track then a radius corner will be make the overall length of side “A” 120”+24”=144”

 

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 industrial 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.

 

Will the track rust? Can it be used in wet environments?
The track is Hot-dip galvanizing (HDG) which is often used to protect steel from corrosion in some of the harshest environments imaginable, yet it provides maintenance-free longevity for decades. The corrosion resistance of hot-dip galvanizing varies according to its surroundings but generally corrodes at a rate of 1/30 of bare steel in the same environment.

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
