[H3] OVERVIEW
Our heavy-duty industrial curtain walls glide effortlessly on roller hooks, opening and closing in seconds. These retractable vinyl partitions are typically installed at roughly a third of the cost of a permanent rigid wall and take a fraction of the time to fit. Designed for UK warehouses, distribution centres, and production facilities, they provide immediate separation for temperature control, dust containment, noise reduction, and workspace zoning. Every curtain wall is custom made to your exact dimensions and delivered ready to hang.

Custom Made Per Application

[H3] Rapid Access in Any Size
AKON industrial curtain walls offer a cost-effective answer to dust, temperature, and workspace zoning challenges. They can serve as either a temporary measure or a long-term partition that looks clean and professional. Each curtain glides open on roller hooks, giving operatives instant access without lifting or folding heavy panels. Widths and heights are fully customisable, and multiple curtain runs can be joined to span even the largest warehouse bays.

[IMG: Retractable industrial curtain wall with blue vinyl panels and clear window strip used to separate an indoor workshop area.]

[H1]
More Affordable Than Fixed Walls

[H3] Simple Installation
Industrial curtains arrive with grommets along the top edge, making it fast and easy to hang them with or without the curtain track system.

[H3] Cost-Effective
Industrial curtain walls cost roughly a third of the price of rigid partition systems or permanent walls, and they can be taken down and stored whenever the space is needed for other uses.

[H3] Separate Operatives
Industrial curtain walls are ideal for separating operatives carrying out welding, washing, packaging, and many other processes.

[H3] Control Noise
The thick PVC construction of our industrial curtains helps absorb and attenuate noise, creating a more comfortable working environment for nearby staff.

[H3] Access Points for Forklifts
Although industrial curtains are designed to retract and open with ease, there are situations where a permanently fixed curtain wall is the better choice. In those installations it is essential that pedestrian and forklift traffic can still pass through. AKON provides several access options, including strip-door openings, overlap sections, and Velcro-sealed walk-through panels, so vehicles and personnel move freely without compromising the barrier.

[IMG: Industrial curtain with door access]

[H3] Strip Curtain Access Points
Strip doors are a cost-effective addition to large vinyl curtain walls. Constructed from 20 cm wide PVC strips, they are crystal clear and remove the need to pull back the main curtain wall each time someone passes through. A typical opening measures 90 cm wide by 180 cm high, although custom sizes are readily available. The strips part on contact and fall back into position automatically, maintaining the environmental seal.

[H1]
Suitable for Large and Small Areas

[IMG: Very large commercial curtain industrial]

[H3] Create Work Zones or Divide Storage
Industrial curtain walls provide a fast, practical way to form dedicated work cells or partition storage areas. In a facility running several different processes under one roof, curtain walls carve out clearly defined zones, reducing cross-contamination and improving workflow. They are equally effective at separating ambient goods from temperature-sensitive stock in distribution centres.

[IMG: industrial curtain wall to divide up workplace job activities]

[H3] Vinyl Curtain Walls Improve Workflow
Industrial curtain walls deliver a rapid, practical installation for dividing warehouse space or establishing dedicated work zones. In a facility with multiple processes running side by side, these partitions create clearly defined areas that keep operatives focused and materials organised. The retractable design means layouts can be reconfigured as production demands change, giving operations managers the flexibility to adapt without costly structural alterations.

Accessories

[H1] Curtain Features
[H3]
[H3] Clear Vision Panels
Vision panels can be added to allow for a clear line
of sight through the curtain. The panels can be made
taller or shorter per your request.

[H3] 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.

[H3] 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 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.

[H3] Anchor Straps
Velcro straps hold your curtain in place if a
breeze or if a more secure curtain is needed.
These anchors feature Velcro straps that loop
through a D-ring, which is anchored into the
cement floor. Typically spaced every 1.2m.

[H3] Seal Velcro
Seal Velcro, also known as adhesive Velcro, sticks
onto your curtain and can be installed in the field.
Please note that stick-on velcro is not ideal for
cold temperature applications or high-frequency
use.

[H3] Chain Weights
If you have a slight breeze or are power washing
near the curtain, then we can add a galvanized
lightweight chain weight to the bottom of the
curtain.

[H1] Connecting Curtains
[H3] Velcro
Velcro is used to connect curtain sections
together to form larger curtain walls. The
Velcro also serves as an access point for
larger curtains and makes them easier to
install.

[H3] 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.

[H1] Entry Options
[IMG: industrial-curtain-options (5)]
[H3] 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.

[H3] 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.

[H3] 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

[H3] 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
styles and prices vary based on the frequency
of opening and closing, speed requirements,
and size.  View Styles

[H3] Weld Strip Colours
Welding strip colours are selected based on the level of UV attenuation required and operator preference. Darker tints block more ultraviolet light, though every colour in the AKON range provides meaningful UV reduction. Remember that welding PVC strips are designed for incidental bystander protection and should never replace a proper welding helmet.
Tinted Bronze Weld
Tinted Red Weld
Tinted Green Weld

[H3] PVC Strip Widths
Choosing the right strip width and thickness depends on the height of the opening and the type of traffic passing through it. Thicker strips offer greater durability for high-traffic doorways, while thinner options allow easier pedestrian access. The two most popular sizes for UK welding applications are listed below.
200 mm × 2 mm (Most Common)
300 mm × 2 mm

FAQ

Should I order the strips a little taller than the opening?
Only if you want, the wall mount hardware. With wall mount hardware, order the strips 152mm taller and 152mm wider than the opening you are trying to cover since you are mounting to the face of the opening. Otherwise, order the strips to the exact size of the opening.
Are the heights of the strips measured from the hole or the top of the strip?
The height is measured from the top of the strip to the bottom of the strip. The holes are located 19.05mm down from the top of the strip.
How do you cut the strips in the field?
You use a utility knife and a straight edge to keep the cut straight.
Do I need to cut the strips myself?
No. When you order a kit, we cut the strips to your specific opening height. However, we usually advise ordering a few centimeters longer than your exact opening height to allow for floor variations; you can easily trim the bottom with a Stanley knife after hanging them for a perfect fit.
What is the difference between "Minimum" and "Maximum" overlap?
Minimum Overlap: Uses fewer strips. The strips overlap slightly (usually ~50mm). This is easier for pedestrians to walk through and costs less. Best for internal partitions.
Maximum Overlap: Uses more strips with a deeper overlap (usually ~100mm). This creates a tighter seal against wind, rain, and cold. We recommend this for external doorways or areas where insulation is the top priority.
