Operable Partitions

Operable Partitions are flat panels that are available in an array of sizes, configurations, acoustical ratings and finishes. Use them to create space flexibility wherever it is needed.

Hufcor Operable Partitions Overview

Hufcor operable partitions are manufactured in the USA and under license throughout the world. They are available through authorized Distributors.

Also known as Airwalls®, folding walls, flat panels, movable walls, and room dividers, Hufcor operable partitions set the standard for quality, durability, acoustic separation, and ease of movement. They are the creative way to add flexibility and functionality to your space.

Operable partitions consist of a series of interlocking flat panels that are approximately 4’ [1219] wide and suspended from overhead tracks. Heights range from over-the-counter use to the nearly 60’ [18.3m] tall panels used in convention centers.

Hufcor operable partitions are identified as the Series 600 in both 3” [76] and 4” [102] thick models. Both models offer picture framed protective edge trim as standard, however, each may be supplied with a monolithic, untrimmed vertical edge, if preferred.

Our quick-set™ retractable top and bottom seals provide the easiest in-field operation - a simple half-turn of the waist high removable handle extends or retracts the sound seals.

The partitions may be finished with a selection from our standard vinyl colors (included in the price) or with optional fabric, carpet, veneer, high pressure laminate, murals, or other custom surfaces. Visit our Photo Album to see the variety of standard or custom finishes that have been used on Hufcor partitions.

As with all Hufcor products, operable partitions are custom manufactured to job site dimensions. And, all models have been designed to provide varying levels of sound control. An array of accessories and options such as inset markerboards, pass doors, pocket doors, prep for windows, etc., provide additional functionality.

Although we offer the most comprehensive selection of operable partitions, occasionally our “standard” products won’t meet your needs. Our talented engineers can design custom partitions for a specific application.

Operable partitions are available in three configurations. These configurations may be used alone or combined to create the flexibility needed. Operable partitions may also be combined with our accordion or glasswall products.

Configurations:

Paired Panels: For wall-to-wall division. Panels are hinged in pairs and manually operated. You may completely close the opening or place pairs of panels along the overhead track for use as display panels or sight dividers. Paired panels are popular for fast setup in classrooms, meeting rooms and training centers.

 

 

 

Single Panels (also known as omnidirectional or individual): Single panels are manually operated and offer optimum room flexibility. The track system enables the panels to negotiate angles and intersections and be moved to alternate locations. Curved and self-sorting track systems are available as well. Single panels are often used in hotel ballrooms and meeting rooms and convention centers; however, they can be used in every type of facility.

Continuously Hinged (known also as trains): Continuously hinged panels are hinged together and move from wall to wall in a straight line. Electric models are often used in school gymnasiums and hotel ballrooms. They operate with keyed switches.

 

 

 

Optional safety systems are available as an extra measure of safety to prevent damage to property and people when the system is moving. This is extremely important if the partitions will be used in facilities where children may be in the area. Manual operation is available for use in smaller openings.
