Modernfold: Worldwide Leader in Operable Partitions
MANUFACTURER
Innovation without boundaries. Modernfold is the world's leading manufacturer
of operable wall systems and accordion partitions. Modernfold is the worldwide
leader in operable partitions offering operable partitions, moveable glass walls,
and accordion partitions. Since 1925 we’ve been synonymous with flexible
space design assistance, quality products and installation, and ongoing product

The right choice for projects large or small. When it comes to benefiting
from the experience and expertise of Modernfold, no project is too large. Regardless
of the size of your project, Modernfold will work with your specific design requirements
to customize an operable wall system to fit your needs.
Acoustic considerations. An important function of Modernfold
operable wall systems is the control of sound from one side of the room
environment to the other. Control can be achieved by addressing the
surface absorption and the flanking paths of the wall system relative to
the total room environment. Modernfold will help you review the intended
use of your space and the acoustical considerations involved. The sound
transmission class (STC) numbers are useful in comparing one panel
construction to another under ideal conditions. Our trained staff will
help you sort through the differences between STC, NRC, and NIC relative
to your job requirements. When a performance guarantee is needed,
Modernfold will offer a written certificate of acoustical performance on
the basis of surrounding construction being in accordance with ASTM
standards. Look to Modernfold for sound advice.

a worldwide network of authorized local distributors. This cadre of full-service,
licensed professionals offer a level of expertise that is as close as a phone

PRODUCT PRESENTATION
OPERABLE WALL SYSTEMS
Single Panel Systems Single panel systems provide the ultimate
in versatility and flexibility. Each panel is moved independently into
position. Single panels are ideal for applications that require especially
tall panels because each panel is supported by two carriers. Single panels
also offer the widest choice of bottom seals to accommodate different job
site conditions. Single panels are often used in multi-purpose rooms,
exhibitions halls and commercial buildings where maximum flexibility is
required.
Modernfold's suspension system used with single panels permits the use
of track with switches, curves, and right-angle turns. That makes possible
multiple room setups, changes in the location of pass doors and work
surfaces, and remote storage. And speaking of storage, Modernfold's
programmable trolley and automatic panel position system make storage
especially easy.
Paired Panel Systems For straight-line openings that do not
require multiple layouts or remote storage, paired panel systems are
usually the answer. Panels are hinged together in groups of two, so paired
panel systems provide quick and easy setup. And because one carrier is
located in the center of each panel, no auxiliary storage track or support
is required. They're ideally suited for applications that required
exceptional durability, acoustic control and frequent use. Floor-supported
paired panels are available for installations where the existing overhead
structure cannot support the partition's weight. When not in use, paired
panels are designed to be stored at either or both ends of an opening for
added storage flexibility. Paired panels are frequently used to divide
classrooms, conference or meetings rooms and office space.
Continuously Hinged Systems Continuously hinged panels are
connected together in a train, extending as one complete unit. Manually
operated, they are the best option for small openings when simplicity,
durability and frequent use are the main criteria. And with electric
operation, continuously hinged panels provide effortless setup for even
the largest openings. To avoid potential damage from misuse, continuously
hinged systems also feature acoustic bottom seals that are set
automatically when the partition is fully extended. Continuously hinged
partitions are often used in small office and commercial openings.
Electrically operated partitions frequently divide gymnasiums and large
multi-purpose areas.
Custom Systems If Modernfold's standard single panel, paired
panel or continuously hinged configurations don't quite fit the bill,
we'll configure a special product to meet your specific needs. Your local
Modernfold distributor and Modernfold's factory application specialists
stand ready to design and produce a product that will meet your most
demanding requirements.
ACCORDION PRODUCTS
Accordion partitions from Modernfold are designed to give you quick
sight and sound division with a simple pull-and-latch operation. Easy to
install, easy to operate and easy to maintain, they are an economical
solution to many space division problems.
Available in single or bi-parting configurations, Modernfold accordion
partitions come with a variety of acoustical control and finish options to
meet your specific needs for performance and appearance. Both manual and
electric operation are available.
The narrow profile of an accordion partition makes it ideal where
storage space is scarce. And accordion designs aren't limited to straight
"wall-to-wall" runs; these partitions can also be curved to meet
your exact needs.
From openings the size of doorways to larger, wall-size openings,
accordion partitions from Modernfold offer an economical, space-saving
alternative to other products.

cast metal, provides a comfortable hand pull for moving and latching
