Allsteel Incorporates Acoustic Enhancement

Allsteel's Beyond portfolio of movable walls puts a premium on acoustic privacy. The new Beyond plate-glass sliding door continues this tradition by incorporating a number of innovations that enhance the modular system's overall acoustic performance.

The new sliding door is available with an adjustable footer that, once the door is installed, can be lowered to minimize the gap with the floor, reducing sound transmission while still allowing the door to slide freely. The footer remains fully adjustable, so that if the doors are relocated, gaps of different heights can be easily accommodated.

The full-strike, sliding-door model offers a further acoustic enhancement. As the door closes, a drop seal is automatically activated, creating a sound seal between the bottom of the door and the floor. All plate-glass sliding doors now feature a new, more robust acoustic seal on their leading edge, which further inhibits sound transmission.
