In the hospitality industry revenue is directly linked to space utilization. Whether it be a hotel, restaurant, or banquet facility flexible space leads to greater opportunities. Incorporating Skyfold vertical retractable walls or Modernfold operable partitions or glass wall systems in hospitality venues is a great way to maximize flexibility.

Along with flexibility, operable walls provide other beneficial advantages for hospitality settings, including a variety of design options and acoustic control.

Adaptability, Aesthetics, and Acoustic Performance

Moveable walls offer maximum versatility and can be used in virtually any room size or shape. With minimal effort, large rooms can be transformed into intimate spaces for private functions or smaller groups. Skyfold vertical retractable walls tuck neatly away overhead when not in use and are activated with the push of a button. Modernfold has a variety of space separation options to choose from in single, paired, or continuous panel configurations.

Aesthetics are extremely important when it comes to hospitality venues. Modernfold operable partitions and Skyfold vertical retractable walls are available in a wide range of finish options, providing endless customization opportunities. Choose from multiple panel substrates and a variety of finish options, including vinyl and fabric wallcoverings, carpet, laminates, or wood veneer. Both Skyfold and Modernfold walls can be custom designed to coordinate with existing décor or be a statement piece used to transform a larger space into a more intimate setting.

Events in hospitality spaces are often accompanied by loud chatter and music. So, selecting products with acoustic control is frequently a requirement. Operable partitions can help control sound in two ways, stopping sound from passing from one area to another (sound transmission) or bouncing back into the same space (noise reduction). Depending on specifications, including panel skin and panel weight Modernfold Acousti-Seal offers products with a 28, 47 or 52 STC rating. Skyfold, known for its industry-leading acoustic control, offers products ranging from 50 – 60 STC ratings.
