Gymnasium Centre Roll Divider Curtain
Company history COMPANY HISTORY Seaway Plastics Ltd. was established in 1964 to manufacture Ensolite® type wrestling mats that were, in their formative years, very much in demand. Seaway Plastics continues to be the sole manufacturer of this specialized product in Canada. In 1966 Seaway, using Qued as the brand name, became one of the pioneers in folding and landing mats and have replaced the old, heavy, tufted mats that were the norm at that time with new lightweight mats. In 1969 gymnasium divider curtains were introduced for the Quebec market, soon followed with an association of Hussey Seating of North Berwick, Maine, that saw Qued curtains supplied for both the Canadian and U.S. markets. This association lasted until 1983, when Hussey withdrew its divider curtain and basketball backstop business to concentrate solely on its bleachers. Qued expanded its product line at this time to include all facets of manufacturing divider curtains, introducing innovative ideas such as divided drive shafts that are now the preferred system. In 1974 Qued introduced its netting line which broke new ground by providing large protective nets that were polymer coated nylon and polyester. Designed to last 10 years in the field, Qued nets last far longer than any other net supplied that do not have a UV coating. Today Qued nets are used in a multitude of applications in sport and industry, and come in a variety of colours and sizes from 1/2 inch to 5 inch mesh with almost unlimited sizes as required in many of the sport domes currently in use. More recently Qued has concentrated on improving and extending its curtain line and hardware, incorporating a few patents with more innovations under test. We, at Qued, believe that speed should be a critical criterion when choosing a curtain design. In order to combat the multitude of new curtain manufacturers that have sprung up supplying antiquated designs that are extremely slow to operate, Qued now provides high speed lifting divider curtains. .The new "Qued Sound Guard 32" introduced in this catalogue marks a new milestone in the development of acoustic divider curtains and is just another innovation that makes Qued a leader in curtain design and execution. An innovative company that has staying power is a company you can put your trust into. A company whose warranty has meaning is a company you can consult with confidence. ~ 1 ~ Choosing a divider curtain FEATURES TO LOOK FOR: Two Types: 1) Activity Divider – used to divide a large area for multiple activities 2) Acoustic Divider – used to acoustically divide a large area for multiple activities. Speed: Qued divider curtains operate between 9.14 –9.75 m/min. (30 – 32ft/min.). The competition that uses small H.P. motors that are geared down and may take 2 to 3 times longer to operate; a consideration for school facilities that average 2160 actuation’s in a school year. Curtains should work quickly to be efficient and cost effective. Safety: Many curtain manufacturers rely solely on the braking characteristics of the worm gear reducer to act as the brake mechanism on their installations (this is not always reliable and only occurs when the lead angle of the worm gear is less than the friction angle). On occasion, the worm gear will not prevent freewheeling once the curtain is in the downward motion. Qued always installs an electric brake whether specified or not. Endurance: Curtains should have adequate reinforcing in the vinyl to withstand the stress imposed on each design (heavy weight vinyl 1.9kg/m. (55oz/yd.) will cause premature wear in an Electrafold lifting system to the upper grommets as the lifting cables are under more strain). Ideally, curtains should fall between 18oz. and 32oz., with adequate polyester reinforcement. All steel cables should be reeled not less than 30 times their diameter and not touch or contact any obstructions. Appearance: Curtains should hang square with a minimum concave on the sides and no sags or creases throughout the surface. Special care on Electrafolds must be taken to prevent the lower pipe (ballast) from protruding from the pocket prematurely. Qued’s unique design prevents this from occurring. The following may be of help in choosing a design with the relative merits and costs of various divider curtain designs. The costs are based on a curtain hung under a beam measuring 7315mm high and a gymnasium 18288mm wide (wall to wall) or 24’x 60’. Installation does not include travel time or the permanent electrical hook up. Included are setting of the limit switches and the operation of the curtain with a temporary connection. Prices are shown in percentages compared to the most expensive style of curtain of it’s type (i.e. single wall and double wall). ~ 2 ~ the upper half of the curtain. Walkdraw Divider Curtain Percentage Comparison: 7315mm x 18228mm (24’ x 60’) 54% This is the most economical divider available. It is not recommended for heights exceeding 30ft. (9144mm) because of stress caused by continual pull on leading edge of curtain when opening and closing. Most wear occurs on bottom of curtain from abrasion when opening and closing the curtain. Storage requires a minimum of 167 mm per M (2"per ft.) of curtain width but should be contained with a strap, as the curtain will spring open slightly because of the bulk of the material. The curtain is supplied at 10% wider than the width of the area to be closed off. Storage track is extra. Electrical requirement: 3-phase, 6 Amp at the end of the curtain near the key switch. Insulator Divider Curtain (Patent Pending – Centre Roll) The curtain rolls from 1/2 height and has the advantage of excellent sound reduction with a high clearance of 406 mm (16") when retracted. It is made of 4 separate panels that can be easily replaced. The curtain should be used for installations where it terminates away from the walls as the bottom panels of the curtain are separate and cannot retain balls, people, etc. when raised. Percentage Comparison: 7315mm x 18228mm (24’ x 60’) 54% Electrical Requirement: None Percentage Comparison: 7315mm x 18228mm (24’ x 60’) 82% Centre Roll® Divider Curtain (Patented design exclusive to Qued.) Electrical requirement: 3-phase, 6 Amp at the end of the curtain near the key switch. The curtain rolls up from the centre with no stress points on the vinyl and remains flat and free of creases. It rises to within 254 mm (10") of the underside of the support and is therefore, the most suitable electrically operated curtain where low overhead exists. It is not available with 32 mm (1 1/4") sport netting. Full Acoustic Curtain (Patent Pending- Centre Roll) The curtain is supplied complete with valences and alcoves to completely seal off the gym when the curtain is down. The 8" (203 mm) space between the walls of the curtain almost totally eliminates sound transmission, when installed with valences and alcoves. The roll-up design reduces stress points and the curtain remains flat and crease free. This curtain model has the added feature of absolutely no exposed hardware. The curtain rises to within 19" of overhead and is not suitable where end(s) of the curtain is exposed. Best Buy Percentage Comparison: 7315mm x 18228mm (24’ x 60’) 76% Electrical Requirement: 110V*, 5 Amp at the top end of the curtain near the key switch. Percentage Comparison: 7315mm x 18228mm (24’ x 60’) 85% Electrafold & Electra Brail Divider Curtain Electrical requirement: 3-phase, 6 Amp at the end of the curtain near the key switch. This is the most common electrical folding curtain on the market. This design tends to fold up with the sides bowing towards the centre of the curtain and imposes high stresses on the grommets (Electrafold) or brailling rings (Electra Brail). The folded height of the curtain in the raised position is between 609mm to 762mm (24" to 30") to underside of beam. Double Wall Acoustic Divider Curtain (Accordion Fold) This is a conventional double wall curtain with continuous horizontal seams, and is operated by a 3-phase, 2 HP motor, complete with lifting cables on 3048m (10’m) centres. Curtains are interconnected at 762mm (30") intervals causing highly stressed points when curtain is operated. Care must be taken when fabricating and installing this curtain to accommodate these loads. The curtain rises to within 1220mm to 1372mm (48" to 54") to the underside of the overhead. This curtain model has the added feature of absolutely no exposed hardware. The curtains are separated by a 381mm (15") space that ensures a maximum sound separation when installed with valences and alcoves. This curtain is not suitable where end(s) of curtain is exposed. Percentage Comparison: 7315mm x 18228mm (24’ x 60’) 100% Electrical Requirement: 110V* or 220V single phase 15Amps at the centre of the gymnasium. *See warranty on 110V systems ACCOUSTIC DIVIDERS The following curtains require 3-phase power. Isolator Divider Curtain (Patent Pending – Centre Roll) Percentage Comparison: 7315mm X 18228mm (24’ X 60’) 100% This curtain rolls up from the centre causing no stress points on the curtain and remains flat and free of creases. It rises to within 381 mm (15") to the underside of the support and is suitable where low overhead exists. The dual independent lower sections eliminate impact from one side of the curtain to the other and have more sounddeadening qualities than the curtains listed above. This curtain design is not available with 1 1/4" sport netting in ~ Electrical requirement: 3-phase, 15 Amp (2 HP) at the centre of the gymnasium. The prices are a guide to help determine curtain style but may vary at time of installation. 3 ~ Centre Roll ® Patent # 2150771,5429171, 5524693, others pending The Qued Advantage: • Exclusive design available only from Qued in Canada (from Porter Athletic Equipment Ltd. exclusively in the U.S.A.) • Ultra-high lift for maximum clearance (10" or 254mm to underside of beam in the raised position) • No high stress points as entire curtain rolls up evenly across the entire width • Simple installation does not require oversized overhead structure • All plated hardware • Electric brake (built-in) • Inertia brake (optional) • 110V power requirements, 6Amps only • Smooth wrinkle-free appearance of curtain • Unique design that does not require routine maintenance • Lower section of curtain can be replaced with minimum cost. • 5-year warranty on motor and drive • 2-year warranty on vinyl curtain. The Curtain The Center Roll® is a compelling choice in divider systems, which offers significant features not available on other designs. Considerably easier to install, the Center Roll® is often the most economic choice in electrically operated dividers. The unique design permits greater flexibility, allowing different materials and colors between the upper and lower sections. Added to this, the sections can be of different widths, effectively allowing a passageway while restricting errant balls. Supply and install one Centre Roll® Curtain. This modern design offers some very unique features, such as: A. The curtain will rise to within 254mm (10") from the ceiling. B. There are no lifting cables or highly stressed mounting points. C. The curtain can be installed on an existing Walkdraw track that is a considerable advantage when upgrading to an electrically operated curtain. Hardware – Centre Roll® The Centre Roll® divider is made up of an upper and a lower section, which are attached to an exposed anodized aluminum tube at half curtain height. The tube contains an internal motor, gears and electric brake. The motor is supplied with a limit switch and thermal protection. Manual overrides are also available for a slight additional cost, which permits the curtain to be manually raised or lowered in case of electrical failure. ~ 4 ~ Operation To raise the curtain, the aluminum tube at the centre rotates and climbs up the curtain rolling up the upper and lower sections simultaneously. The curtain rolls flat with no highly stressed areas and its operation is barely audible. A car takes the torque reaction of the motor and runs on a track that remains stationary. Alternatively, the torque can be transmitted through a belt that rolls up with the curtain. This design does not require any hardware attached to the walls. Safety Brake (Optional) The top half of the curtain can be the same as the bottom or it can be made of flexmesh 1/2" Hanger Operation is by a spring-loaded key switch, which is directly accessible and contained in a supplied, all steel enclosure. The electrical supply is 110 Volt 10 Amp single phase and is permanently connected by others. Some curtains may require a secondary synchronised motor where the size dictates. Material – Centre Roll® The curtain consists of two equal sections. The lower section is constructed of vinyl while the upper section is either vinyl or Flexmesh. The vinyl is 0.61 kg/m (18 oz./sq.yd.) or 0.85 kg/m (25 oz/sq.yd.) vinyl coated polyester, with similar appearance and embossed on both sides, resistant to staph, rot and mildew. Flexmesh is 0.24 kg/m (7 oz/sq.yd.) vinyl coated polyester capable of resisting UV degradation. The vinyl and Flexmesh meet or exceed the California Fire Marshall and NFPA standards for flame resistance. A label from a qualified testing laboratory, certifying flame resistance and smoke rating of the curtain shall be attached to the bottom of the curtain. 1 5/8" o.d. Pipe Top & Bottom Curtain Wall 18 or 25 oz Vinyl See Motor Torque Take-Up Options Safety Strap (Optional) 0The top edge of the curtain can be either a hem containing #4 spur grommets spaced at 305mm (12") centres for mounting on an existing track or a pocket to contain a 40.6 mm (1.6") diameter pipe for mounting directly to a beam. The bottom of the upper section and the top of the lower section are hemmed and contain a 4.74mm (3/16") diameter cable to fit and hold the curtain sections in the groove of the drive tube.

Carriers where the ball bearings are exposed (plastic wheels) prematurely jam and cause difficulty when curtain is moved. The Curtain Supply and install one Qued Walkdraw Curtain or equal. It is specified where cost is the prime consideration. This curtain is the most economical divider to install and maintain. It is available in a variety of styles, colours and weights. The storage of the curtain is usually at one side of the gymnasium, perpendicular to the wall or along the side of a wall if a storage area exists. It can be supplied in two sections with the lower 2438mm (8’) equipped with Velcro® strips on both leading edges to facilitate closing of the curtains. Hardware – Walkdraw A carrier with dual steel wheels mounted on ball bearings is provided every 305mm (12") along the length of the curtain. A master carrier is provided at both ends to facilitate curtain movement for opening and closing. The track is a heavyduty, double-T, aluminum extrusion and is supported every 1220 to 1830mm (4' to 6'). The advantage of this type of track is that it is extremely durable and easily spliced. The track can be bent at the job site or be pre-bent to facilitate installation and is suitable for both nylon and steel-wheeled carriers. Splices and track clamps can be attached to the upper half of the track and will not affect the smooth operation of the curtain. The curtain is attached to the carriers by sturdy S-hooks and plated adjusting chains. ~ 6 ~ Material – Walkdraw The curtain is fabricated with 0.61 kg/m2 (18 oz.) or 0.85 kg/m2 (25 oz.) fire and smoke- rated, vinyl-coated polyester with similar appearance and embossed on both sides. Curtains can be supplied in solid vinyl or with the bottom 3048 mm (10’) in solid vinyl with an alternative material for the top portion (see the inside of the back cover). The top of the curtain contains a 76 mm (3") band of hemp that is totally concealed and sewn in quadruple. #4 spur grommets are used at each end of the curtain at 76 mm (3") centres to accept the master carriers. The sides are hemmed over 51 mm (2") and double sewn to give a clean, durable edge. The bottom of the curtain has a 203 mm (8") pocket hemmed over and double sewn. The curtain is supplied with a drawstring (leader) in the lower pocket to pull through a 5 mm (3/16") diameter chain if required. The width of curtain must be ordered 10 percent larger than the width of the gymnasium to allow for fullness. Curtain shall be a QUED model: #4-01 STANDARD TRACK .61 kg./sq.m. All Vinyl 18 oz./sq.yd.

(30ft/min) • Stainless steel Durable #4 grommets • Short lifting cables • Direct drive; no belts or chains • Minimum – 1 HP industrial, fan-cooled motor • Magnetic contactors with overload protection • Grooved drums (30x diameter of cable) • Electric brake (standard) • Secondary brakes (optional) • Identical appearance of custom vinyl on both sides • All plated hardware & drive shafts • 5 year warranty on all 220V single-phase & 3-phase motors & drives (1 year only on 110V, 1-phase) • 2 year warranty on vinyl curtain & cables Comments The most common problem associated with Electrafold & Brail curtains is the stretching of the lifting cables. Qued has reduced this problem by employing grooved wind-up reels mounted directly over each grommet line, which greatly reduces the steel cable length. Stretched cables are hazardous because they protrude from the curtain in the down position and can cause bodily injuries. Brail curtains on certain applications reduce this risk as all the lifting hardware is on one side. They should only be considered in applications where the lifting side is not close to activities. Instant reversing motors and drive belts are not equal to a continuous rated industrial fan cooled motor using magnetic contactors and a direct-coupled gear reducer, incorporating a low voltage key switch. Instant reversing motors put full line voltage and currents through the key switch and because of their fractional horsepower design, they must be low-geared and are slow to operate. ~ 8 ~ Description Curtain shall be symmetrical and square. Slight concave on sides (50 mm (2") on 7620 mm (25’) on an all vinyl curtain and 100 mm (4") on 7620 mm (25ft) for sports net models) is permissible. Curtain shall have no raw edges or unsightly creases and windows in the upper section of the curtain must remain level along lower edge. All vinyl seams shall be welded with 29 mm (1 1/8") overlap and sewn over in welds that are within reach when curtain is down. All sewn hems and pockets shall be double-lock stitched with no chain stitching permitted. Curtain shall be hung to touch the floor or up to 25 mm (1") above. Operation Curtain is raised by 29 mm (1/8") aircraft cables on 3,048 mm (10’) centres (max.) passing through #4 stainless steel grommets on 457 mm (18") centres minimum on the vertical plane. Cables wind on to 102 mm (4") diameter grooved drums directly over lift lines with quick adjustment at top of cable. There are no cable clamps or unsightly ends protruding from the bottom of curtain that could cause injury. Lower ballast pipe is permanently fixed to curtain and cannot protrude from curtain ends even after years of service. Electrafold and Electra Brail curtains over 1.1 kg./m. (32 oz./sq.yd.) are not recommended as the added weight causes premature wear on the lifting grommets. Curtain shall be a QUED model: #4-11 .61 kg./sq.m. All Vinyl 18 oz./sq.yd.

The walls of the curtain are interconnected by wires spaced at 1525mm (5’) vertically and 766mm (30") horizontally. Hardware – Double Wall Acoustic Divider Curtain The system includes a 3 phase thermally protected reversing electric motor with electric brake, coupled to a 60:1 doubleoutput worm gear transmission sized and selected to the curtains requirements. The 32mm (1.75") hollow square steel drive shafts are attached with flexible couplings to each output shaft of the gearbox. The drive shaft is supported by flange-mounted ball bearings at 3048 mm (10’) maximum spacing. The take-up-reels are yo-yo style eliminating curtain walk when operated. A limit switch is connected directly to the reducer eliminating the need for belts and chain drives. Operation is by a constant pressure key switch located on both sides of the curtain. A 41 mm (1.6") diameter steel tube supports the tops of the curtain walls. The bottom-lifting pipe is a 76 mm x 102 mm (3" x 4") galvanised box section. Inertia safety brakes operate directly on the lifting tube, and do not require chains or sprockets. The drive shaft and all hardware are zinc plated. Alcoves, if required, are manufactured from dense open cell foam, upholstered in 1.9 kg/m (55 oz.) vinyl, colour matched to the curtain colour.

Qued can supply nylon and polyethylene netting in a large variety of mesh sizes from 7/8" to 5" squares in practically any required size with either rope or sewn reinforced borders. • Qued supplies these nets finished with an abrasion and UV resistant Dura Dip coating in a wide range of colours. This unique coating places Qued nets well above those that are supplied in natural nylon or dyed black or green which does not offer the added benefit of polyurethane protection. • Qued monofilament (transparent) net for indoor applications is of superior quality made in 1mm nylon and available in 4 standard widths. The net is pre-set for easy installation which is otherwise extremely difficult due to the springy nature of this material. • Qued nets are available in knotless and knotted configuration. • Dura dip colours: black, white, green, red, yellow, beige, and blue. • Fire rated net available.
