Accordion Case Studies
Project Type: Executive Office
Problem: A country club needed an elegant, easy way to separate its formal dining room and sometimes boisterous adjacent bar.
Solution/Description of the Installation: Our Series 3300 dual-wall door provides the visual separation and a degree of sound control that keeps all members happy. Plus, it opens effortlessly when an event calls for traffic flow between both areas.
Project Type: Healthcare/Emergency Room
Problem: The management of a hospital wanted to improve its existing emergency room by increasing privacy for patients and making that workspace more flexible and efficient.
Solution/Description of the Installation: The addition of a sleek, easily cleanable Series 740 Alumifold door creates two, much-needed trauma rooms, each providing patients with an enhanced level of privacy during emergency treatments.
Project Type: Computer/Telcom Room
Problem: Due to increased security concerns, a company needed a way to protect its computer and telecommunications equipment without causing problems with heat build-up.
Solution/Description of the Installation: By specifying our sturdy Series 640 Alumifold door in sleek, perforated aluminum, the company is now able to ensure lockable security and also provide the ventilation needed to keep equipment running trouble-free.
Project Type: Executive Office
Problem: Merging a relaxed, open-door management style with a periodic need for privacy and quiet.
Solution/Description of the Installation: By combining Woodfold’s Series 440/540 Visifold see-through doors with hardwood panels, the office designer was able to create the inviting sense of openness his executive client requested, but still provide private spaces when needed. Installation on a curved track added to the office’s architectural interest.
Project Type: Residential Garage
Problem: It was a classic parental dilemma: how to give the kids access to the garage for hobbies and play, but keep them away from Dad’s next-most-precious possession: his classic Ferrari.
Solution/Description of the Installation: Installation of a Series 240 Accordion Door now serves to divide the family garage into two distinct zones – kids and pets have full run of one half, while Dad’s expensive toy is safely sheltered in the other.
