VisionGlide Side Folding Grille

If you have an opening that needs a lightweight closure with not-so-lightweight security, the VisionGlide™ Side Folding Grille may be the solution you’re after. While VisionGlide is an effective traffic barrier, its light hang weight of 0.8 lbs per square foot means that you can install it on limited supporting structures. This product is excellent for floor to ceiling dividers in public spaces such as offices, hospitals and lobbies.

Side folding grilles require less headroom clearance than rolling grilles. The VisionGlide™ curtain is formed with a series of vertical 5/16" diameter aluminum rods on 3.5" centers. Horizontal chains formed of eyeletted aluminum links are spaced at 12" apart. Vertical hanger rods mounted to rollers that slide in the overhead track support the curtain.

Standard Features:

• Clear anodized rods, links and post material
• PVC tube spacers, polycarbonate hinged top and bottom panels to match
• Fully anodized version optional
• 12" link spacing standard
• 9", 6" or 3" spacing optional
• Hook bolt locking with cylinders both sides standard, other locking optional
• Fully anodized version optional

Sensing Edge

Sensing Edge - Entrapment Protection Device

Designed with a flexible black rubber TPE material, our new sensing edge has two fins that conform to variations in the floor on both the interior and exterior of your door or grille ensuring a secure seal without requiring you to overset the bottom door limit. The sensing edge is easy to clean and remains free from rust and dirt stains, maintaining a fresh uniform appearance. With flexible 1" sealing fins, our sensing edges provide maximum protection while withstanding the elements.

Edges are tested and listed to UL 10B as a component of the rolling steel fire door assembly.
