Built to Your Gym

Custom Gym Divider Curtains

No two gymnasiums are the same height, and no divider curtain comes off a shelf. Send us your ceiling type, your span and your height and we will have one built to it — motorized or manual, mesh, vinyl or both, in your school colours. No size limits, no minimum order, quote back within 24 hours.

STEP 1

Send your measurements

Ceiling type, span and height. Photos from the floor looking up help more than you would think — especially if the ceiling is complicated.

STEP 2

We price it with the manufacturer

Your measurements go to the manufacturer and we come back with a written quote covering the curtain, the track and hardware, and freight to your ZIP code.

STEP 3

Approve and we build it

Approve the quote, send a PO or pay by card, and the curtain goes into production.

Anything else we should know

No obligation. Freight and installation are always quoted separately and approved before you are charged.

How long it takes

Built to measure

There is no stock size for a gym curtain — every one is cut and sewn to the building. Expect around 30 days from the point you approve the quote, then freight on top.

Track and hardware

If this is a new installation the quote includes the track, connectors, roller wheels and end stops sized to your span. Replacing a curtain on an existing track is faster and cheaper — tell us and we will confirm the fit.

Freight and installation

Both quoted separately from the curtain. Motorized curtains involve electrical work at ceiling height and are not a DIY job. Some manufacturers install directly; where they do not, we connect you with an installer. You will see the cost before you approve anything.

Start with your ceiling

Everything about a divider curtain is decided by what it hangs from. Before width, before colour, before anything else, we need to know the shape of your ceiling structure — it determines whether the curtain can be manual or has to be motorized.

Ceiling type	What it looks like	What it means for the curtain
Flat	Bar joists, I-beams or a flat deck running level across the gym	The straightforward case. Manual or motorized both work, and the track mounts directly to the structure.
Peaked or pitched	The roof rises to a ridge down the middle	The curtain has to follow the pitch, which means motorized — unless the track is dropped to a level plane below the peak. We will tell you which is cheaper for your building.
Irregular	Mixed heights, ductwork, light runs, structural changes across the span	Needs a look before anyone quotes it. Send photos and rough heights and we will work it out.

Not sure which you have? Choose “I will describe it” on the form, add a couple of photos taken from the floor looking up, and we will identify it.

Mesh, vinyl, or both

Most gym curtains are built in two bands: solid vinyl across the bottom where balls hit it, and mesh above that so air moves and the space does not feel sealed off. You can also run all of one or all of the other.

Build	Where it is used	Why
Vinyl bottom, mesh top	The standard for school gymnasiums	Vinyl takes the ball impact at play height. Mesh above keeps airflow and light moving through the gym and cuts the weight of the curtain.
All vinyl	Full visual separation	Blocks sight lines completely. Heavier, and it stops air moving across the space.
All mesh	Light separation, practice splits	Lightest option and the most air. Does not block the view, so it is more a boundary than a wall.

There is no fixed ratio. Tell us the vinyl height you want and the mesh makes up the rest.

Motorized or manual

Motorized fold-up. The curtain lifts and folds up to the ceiling on a motor, operated by a key switch or a push-button remote. Nothing is left on the floor and nothing has to be walked anywhere. This is what most schools specify, and it is required on a pitched ceiling.

Motorized roll-up. Same motor operation, but the curtain rolls rather than folds. It stores in a tighter bundle at the ceiling.

Manual sliding. The curtain hangs from roller wheels on a track and is physically walked to one wall to store it. Lower cost, no electrical work, but somebody has to move it every time and it takes up wall space when open.

If you are not sure, tell us how often the gym gets divided and by whom. A curtain moved twice a day by a custodian is a different decision from one moved twice a season.

How to measure

Length is wall to wall across the span you want divided. Measure the full width of the gym even if the curtain will not cover all of it, and tell us where you want it to stop.
Height is floor to the underside of the structure the curtain will hang from — the bottom of the beam or joist, not the roof deck. Leave roughly two inches for hardware.
Peak height only matters on a pitched ceiling. Give us the height at the eave and the height at the ridge.
Obstructions matter more than people expect. Light fixtures, HVAC ducts, speakers, scoreboards and retractable hoops all sit in the path of a curtain. List anything in that line.

Give us the measurements of the space. We will work the curtain dimensions back from them.

Common questions

Do you make curtains to any size?

Yes. Every gym divider curtain is built to the dimensions of the building it goes into — there is no catalog size. Send us your width and height and we will quote it.

How long does it take?

Around 30 days from the point you approve the quote. The curtain is cut and sewn to your measurements, then it ships freight. Some manufacturers run longer and we will tell you which one you are dealing with before you commit.

Is there a minimum order?

No minimum. One curtain or a whole facility, we quote it the same way.

Do I need the track and hardware too?

Only if this is a new installation. If you are replacing a curtain on an existing track, you usually just need the curtain — tell us on the form and we will confirm it fits what you already have. For a new install, the quote includes the track, connectors, roller wheels and end stops sized to your span.

Can we put our school logo or name on it?

Yes. Logos and lettering are printed or applied to the vinyl section. Tell us on the form and we will ask for your artwork — vector files work best, but we can work from what you have.

Do you handle installation?

Curtains almost always need professional installation, particularly motorized ones, which involve electrical work at ceiling height. Some manufacturers install directly. Where they do not, we connect you with an installer who does this work. Either way, installation is quoted separately from the curtain, the same as freight.

What colours can we get?

Manufacturers carry a wide standard range in both the vinyl and the mesh, and school colours are usually covered. Tell us the colour you are after on the form and we will match it to what the manufacturer offers, or send you the colour card.

Do you accept school purchase orders?

Yes. Tell us on the form that you will be paying by PO and we will build the quote so your business office can process it.
