CUBE CARE Panel System
The Cube Care Panel System is a way of providing a house-wide standardization system that can save your facility time, money, and storage space…to name a few!
Once a fabric has been selected for your facility, this system uses a series of identical panels of the same width and length. When they are installed on the track the curtains are overlapped at the grommets by 6”. Panels are then added to your track until you have full coverage to ensure
“Cube Care Panel System installed on track”
The panels on a Cube Care Panel System come in two different widths, 72” and 90”, and this is solely determined by the fabric that is used. There are two basic types of fabric, Railroaded and Non-Railroaded (or “Up the Roll”). For Railroaded fabrics a 90” panel width is used. For “Up the Roll” fabrics the panel width is 72”. This is because the way the pattern is oriented on the bolt of fabric limits the size for fabrication.
**Please see our FAQ’s for more information on how to determine your hospital curtain length.**
The length of your panels can be made to your exact needs and is determined by your ceiling height and the distance off the floor that is required by your facility. Each facility has a different requirement for how far off the floor curtains have to be, however we typically see between 10-12” off the floor. This is so that the curtains don’t interfere with cleaning floors and so they don’t get dirty or caught on equipment wheels.
Please contact us if you would like assistance developing a standardization system for your facility. We can help you account for different length requirements, specialty wards, and other special circumstances, while still getting the full benefits from a Panel System.
