Akon Curtains and Dividers
- What is your objective - There are several different styles of garage divider curtains which you can use based on your needs. Some curtains are better suited for dividing up space, while other curtains are better suited for containing over spray from power washing applications. Generally garage curtains are used to separate work cells or work areas and are constructed of 18 mil vinyl. This is a robust fabric, and will resist tearing unlike thinner materials. Power washing overspray curtains are generally constructed on a clear PVC material which is heat sealed rather than stitched to prevent bacteria growth. Power washing curtains also feature stainless steel curtain track which resists corrosion.
- How will you hang the curtains - Many people decide that they need garage divider curtains and don't give a lot of thought to how they will actually hang them. It is a good idea to evaluate what structure you have above the curtains which could support them. Another option you might consider is portable curtains which are freestanding and are not mounted to anything. Keep in mind though, that when these curtains are bumped, they are easy to knock over and can fall into whatever you are working on.
- Will the divider curtains be used for privacy - Some garages choose to purchase clear vinyl curtains so that they can see through them. These are ideal as they increases worker safety and create a more open atmosphere. Clear curtains of course are used more for containment than privacy. Privacy curtains are opaque and create a more well defined work area. Neither version is better than the other, rather one style simply works better based on your needs.
