Operation

To help the insulated curtain wall fold up neatly, the curtains are guided via the curtain track which comes in a variety of different mounting styles. The industrial insulated curtains can be mounted to your ceiling, wall face, or can even be suspended from above using threaded rod or chain. Full height vertical Velcro is also optional for attachment to side walls. Also optional are magnet or Velcro splits for quick access.

Premium Folding Version

accordion-insulated-garage-curtain

Premium Accordion Folding Insulated Curtain

If you need a premium look with super clean edges then you can choose our accordion insulated curtain. This model has sealed pockets to house the insulating batting which allows it to fold up in a more controlled manner. The appearance of this thermal industrial curtain is also more aesthetically appealing due to the way that it is produced.

R-Values To Choose From

insulated-outdoor-industrial-curtains

Temperature Control R-Values

You can choose from 3 different R-Values for our insulated divider curtains. R-Value is the capacity of an insulating material to resist heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power. As a general rule the longer you plan to have your thermal curtain installed the higher R-Value you should choose. This will give you the best ROI on your investment. If however your need is short term then it is best to use the less expensive R-Values as long term energy savings will likely not be gained.

  • R3 – Standard Separation – Retractable and Stationary
  • R6 – High Separation – Retractable and Stationary
  • R9 – Highest Separation – Stationary 

Control Air Flow

floor-sweep

Floor Engagement

Cold air can get under a normal curtain that rests just above the floor and that can allow cold air to get under the curtain. This reduces the effectiveness of the temperature control curtains. Using a floor sweep to engage the floor prevents this issue by controlling the flow of air from one temperature zone to another. The 8" tall sweep Velcros onto the bottom of the curtain and hangs 6" below it. It can be replaced in the future or replaced with a taller or shorter sweep if you need to use the insulated curtains in another location with a different elevation.

Common Questions about Industrial Insulated Curtains

What are industrial insulated curtains used for?

They create temperature-controlled zones in warehouses, factories, and food facilities, reducing energy loss while keeping layouts flexible.

Can they be customized to fit my space?

Yes—each curtain is custom-made to your exact width, height, shape, and layout.

What R-values are available?

Options include R-3 and R-6 for retractable or stationary walls, and higher R-values such as R-9 for stationary panels.

Do they help with noise reduction?

Yes—the insulated batting reduces sound transmission as well as heat transfer.

What access options can be added?

You can integrate sewn-in strip doors, free-standing strip doors, swinging impact doors, or powered roll-up doors.

How do you seal the bottom to limit air leakage?

An attachable floor sweep (6–8 in) engages the floor to reduce drafts between zones.

What materials are they made from?

Durable reinforced vinyl outer skins with a poly-fiber insulation core for long-lasting performance and easy cleaning.

Are there outdoor or cold-weather options?

Yes—outdoor-rated vinyl skins and hardware are available for colder climates and harsh conditions.

What about installation and warranty?

Most installs are straightforward using ceiling or wall-mounted track systems; warranties typically cover hardware for life and curtains for 5 years.

  • Beam Clamps - Clamps onto the flange of beams, joists, and purlins.
How to Measure

Width

  • Measure the distance that you are trying to cover
    • We will generally add 5% to this dimension to give your curtain a proper drape.
    • When you receive your quote, the hardware width shown will be the actual overall width.

Height

  • Measure the distance from the floor to the mounting point
    • We will subtract 7.62 cm to allow for the hardware and keep your curtain just off the ground.
      • If you choose the floor sweep option, we still subtract 7.62 cm. This allows the floor sweep to sit lightly on the floor while the main curtain hangs just above it.
      • If you have a sloped ceiling, please provide the high-point height and the low-point height. We will assume a straight, linear slope. More Info Here On Sloped Ceilings

Common Questions


What is the spacing from the bottom of the track to the top of the curtain?
Standard curtains have a gap of approximately 2–2.5 cm between the bottom of the track and the top of the curtain.

Spacing from Track

 

What are the dimensions of the track?

 

Can the track be cut to size on site?
Yes. The track is designed to be cut on site using a hacksaw or a Sawzall.

 

How much width does the radius corner add to the length?
The radius corner is 61 cm (24") in diameter. It will add approximately 61 cm (2 ft) to each dimension.
For example, if you have 305 cm (120") of curtain track, adding a radius corner will make the overall length of side “A” about 366 cm (144").

 

How does the track go together?
The track is modular and will arrive in sections with a simple bolt-together design.

 

How close together do I need the track supports?
Track supports should typically be spaced approximately every 1.5 m. The farther apart the supports are, the more the track may deflect. For shorter curtains, supports can sometimes be spaced a little farther apart. You will receive enough support brackets with your order to achieve this 1.5 m spacing.

 

Can I simply drill straight through the track and into the ceiling / structure?
Yes. This is called a flush-mount installation and is very common. Simply drill through the centre of the track and fix it into your structure using wood screws, bolts, Tek screws, etc. Space the fixings roughly every 0.9–1.5 m.

 

How hard is it to install the industrial curtain track?
Installation is straightforward. All components fit together and are secured with set screws. The process is intuitive, but if you have any difficulty, simply call or email us and we will guide you through it.

 

Will the track rust? Can it be used in wet environments?
The track is hot-dip galvanised (HDG), a process commonly used to protect steel from corrosion in demanding environments. It offers maintenance-free longevity for decades. The corrosion rate of hot-dip galvanised steel is typically about 1/30 that of bare steel in the same environment.
Curtains

Outer Layers

The outer layers of our insulated curtains are made of both 13 oz and 18 oz vinyl, which is reinforced with a polyester scrim. It is a waterproof fabric that is easy to wash down should it become dirty. The material will not absorb liquids and stains, so it will look great for many years. 18 oz coated vinyl is ideal for outdoor use, with temperatures as low as -20° F (-28° C).

Inner Batting

The interior insulation is polyfiber, not fiberglass. The material is wedged between the skins and stitched in place so it will not settle to the bottom. The insulated thermal garage curtains get their insulating properties from the air space created by the batting.

 

Features

Curtain Features

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.

 

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.

 

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 1.2 m.

 

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.

 

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.

 

Connecting Curtains

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.

 

Entry Options

industrial-curtain-options (5)

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.

 

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.

 

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

 

 

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

FAQ

How much more expensive are industrial insulated curtains than standard curtains?
Our industrial insulated curtains are about 3x the investment of our standard industrial curtains. Customers often ask if they should just purchase a standard curtain to save money. Our answer is generally based on how long you intend to use the curtain. For instance, if you plan to use the divider curtain for many years, you will recoup your investment through energy savings. If you plan to use the curtain for only one or two seasons, you could save money by going with the standard curtains. Keep in mind that the standard industrial curtains have an R1 insulation value.

What is R Value?
The insulation value of a thermally insulated curtain wall is measured by what is called an R-value. In basic terms, R-value is the capacity of an insulating material to resist heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power. AKON provides R3 and R6 insulated industrial curtains.

Should I choose R3 or R6?
We find R3 is a good fit for most applications. The longer you need them and the colder your location is, the more we recommend the R6 material.

When the curtains are folded up, how much space do they occupy?
The insulated industrial curtains fold up to about 6.5 cm per metre of curtain width. So a 3 m wide curtain would fold up to approximately 64 cm.
