Product Spotlight: Operable Walls

August 20, 2014

In order to use your space efficiently, you might find that you need to divide or separate the rooms in your school to create new spaces that staff and students can utilize throughout the day. Typically this is seen in gymnasiums, auditoriums or training rooms, but it can certainly be done in classrooms as well to double the amount of rooms available. Today, operable walls are the standard product used in order to divide such classrooms and gymnasiums. In addition to the school atmosphere, however, this product is also popular in hotels, religious facilities, restaurants and exposition halls since it provides a quick and easy solution for maximizing the use of your space.

At Nickerson Corporation, we recommend Kwik-Wall’s Moveable Wall Systems to assist you with dividing your space. Kwik-Wall offers several models of operable walls including steel framed panels, steel reinforced frames, hinged pair panels, individual panels, curve and diverter and electric wall type systems. Each of their systems are designed to endure everyday wear and tear and they demonstrate high quality standards in terms of life cycle, stress and serviceability.
