Vinyl Curtain Walls

vinyl-curtain-wall

OVERVIEW

Our lines of vinyl curtain wall are typically used as a partition or a divider that separates space inside of a building and is non-load bearing. These industrial curtains are a lot less expensive than a fixed wall and can be installed in a fraction of the time.

Made For Speed and Flexibility

Common Uses for Vinyl Curtain Walls

While the uses for these curtains vary greatly, the most common uses are as follows:

  • Temperature zones – Separate heated portions of the building from non-heated
  • Dust control – Dust control curtains keep dust confined to the source
  • Odor control – Odor control curtain walls keep odors confined to the source
  • Privacy – Privacy curtain walls keep unsightly or private areas out of sight

Installation of the Vinyl Curtain Walls

The materials used for your specific application will vary based on the environment and your objectives. Typically the curtain walls are constructed from 14 to 18oz vinyl which will provide many years of reliable use.

For some applications, such as temperature separation, we might choose to supply you with an insulated vinyl curtain wall material which has a foam filling. This filling is wedged between two layers of vinyl and can separate temperatures up to about 43° F.

Easy Install

Industrial curtains come with grommets at the top making hanging the curtains quick and easy with or without the curtain track.

 Inexpensive

Industrial curtains are about 1/3rd of the cost of other separation methods such as rigid walls or panel systems and are easy to store.

Separate Workers

Industrial curtain walls are ideal for separating workers for welding, washing, packaging and many other operations.

Control Noise

Industrial curtains help reduce noise due to the thick PVC they are made from which makes for a more comfortable work environment.

Mounting Methods

The mounting style which is used also varies based on the structure that you have available in your building. The industrial curtains can hang from the ceiling joists or they can go all the way from the floor to the ceiling and wrap right around the joists. Typically this would be for odor control, dust control, and temperature control curtains as you want an air tight fit between the two areas.

Vinyl Curtain Wall Options

In some instances you will need to include additional features to the curtain to provide you with the functionality that your application requires. Here are some of the features that you can add.

  • Strip doors – The strip doors will allow a forklift or workers to pass through
  • Clear strip windows – A see through window allows you to see through the industrial curtain
  • Modular panels – Velcro panel sections allow for the addition or removal of curtain sections
  • Company Logo – Your company logo can be printed directly onto the industrial curtain wall
  • Floor anchors – The floor anchors keep the curtain “tight” from the ceiling to the floor

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.
How does the track go together?
  • The track is modular in design and will arrive in pieces that slip together and bolt together with set screws.
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 light weight curtain then you could space the supports out to about 8' apart. 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.

Straight-Splice-Connector

How much weight can the roller hooks support?

The curtain track roller hooks are rated for 40lbs each. If you have a unique application that requires more weight load then please use our custom quote form and request steel roller hooks which have 75lbs capacity each.

Can I paint the curtain track?

The hardware comes as plain industrial galvanized steel. Some customers choose to spray paint the track which is OK and does not affect its performance. You can use a steel spray paint to paint the track to your desired color once it arrives. Example below.

painted-curtain-track

What size threaded rod does the threaded rod style track use?

The threaded rod track uses a 3/8" threaded rod with a nut and washer as shown below. Threaded rods are not provided by AKON and can be sourced locally from a hardware store.

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
