Operable Partitions
For the largest openings, storage in remote pockets and in complex partition layouts, the single panel is the operable partition of choice. Modernfold single panel acoustic systems provide the ultimate in versatility and flexibility, allowing such capabilities as multiple room setups and changes in the location of pass doors and work surfaces.
Advantages of Modernfold Single Panel Systems

For straight-line openings that do not require multiple locations or offset storage, an Acousti-Seal® paired panel system is ideal. Quick and easy setup is possible since panels are hinged together in groups of two and move in a straight line within the opening.
Advantages of Modernfold Paired Panel Systems

Modernfold Insights
Modernfold distributor Dupree Building Specialties partnered with Public School District 81 in Spokane, Washington to revitalize their local schools. The district, which is now comprised of seven high schools, six middle schools, and 34 elementary schools, received voter approval in 2018 for a $553 million bond to renovate. The approval permitted the construction of three new middle schools and the complete replacement of three aging middle schools, all aimed at creating a more flexible learning environment for students.
Acoustical comfort for any patient is critical for their recovery process and overall well being. It is imperative that an architect carefully considers the best design for the creation of sound isolation and absorption when designing healthcare institutions.
Operable walls are one effective tool that allows for any healthcare space to flex as needed while also offering critical speech privacy for the patient and their family, acoustical comfort throughout the 24-hour demands of a healthcare environment, and minimal annoyance from noise-producing sources.
Noise can disrupt a patient's routine, emotions, thoughts, and sleep in the absence of effective acoustical management. Anger, weariness, and stress-related symptoms can arise from exposure to constant loudness. The effects of trying to recuperate in a loud setting that often disturbs a patient's sleep include a depressed mood, increased daytime drowsiness, and even worse, impaaired cognitive function. Increased risk of hypertension, heart disease, and stroke are among the long-term impacts.
Countless work-from-home opportunities are swaying savvy companies to counter the comforts of home with energetic office spaces employees adore.

When New Jersey-based nonprofit LUCY Outreach moved into its forever home, it did so with a renewed excitement for providing educational, social, spiritual, and service-oriented programming to the area's youth. With a team approach, a stunning and inviting space was built perfectly suited for a variety of their multicultural and multigenerational programs.
