Vertically folding walls save space while opening up rooms

The new Vista Air vertically folding wall system from Construction Specialties features a low-profile design that uses quietly meshing gears in lieu of traditional counterweights, tension springs, straps, and pulleys.

The result is a clean, open aesthetic with no obtrusive bulkheads or steel tubes. Vista Air is available in several mounting options and cladding materials, including metal, wood, and glass. Possible attachment systems include insulated wall panels, concrete masonry units, and wood framing.

A fail-safe positive stop system and optional sensors prevent hazardous closure.
