KWIK-WALL Company Operable Wall Systems
ADJUSTABLE BOTTOM SEALS
Adjustable Bottom Seals consist of field adjustable, continuous-contact vinyl sweep
seals that allow for 3/4” of nominal adjustment.
On the edge of each panel is a screw. To lower or raise the Adjustable Bottom Seal,
simply loosen the screw on both edges and “adjust” the bottom seal up or down until it
sufficiently contacts the floor surface. Once adjusted, tighten the screws.
Note: Always adjust the seal as close to the in the extended panel position as possible
Other Panel Options
OPERABLE TOP SEALS
The Operable Top Seal consists of an edge-activated seal using a removable wrench as
supplied by the manufacturer. The top seals are operated simultaneously and in
conjunction with Operable Bottom Seals. (Note: See Operable Bottom Seals for additional
information on how to operate these seals.)
SINGLE or DOUBLE PASS DOOR PANEL OPERATION
Pass Door panels are constructed of the same materials as the operable wall system,
unless otherwise noted on the shop drawings. Pass Door panels are moved and operated
in a similar manner as the Intermediate Panels. A single or double pass door panel
contains two (2) operating seal mechanisms, one in each leg (3000 Series only). Pass
Door should be closed anytime panel is moved. All Model 2020 single and double pass
door panels contain Adjustable Bottom Seals. In order to stabilize the pass door panel,
KWIK-WALL has included one surface foot bolt on each pass door leg that should
interface with a strike plate mounted in the floor.
POCKET DOOR OPERATION
Pocket Doors are typically hinged to a wall jamb and constructed of the same material as
the operable wall panels, unless otherwise noted on the shop drawings. Pocket Doors are
provided to close off the pocket area when the wall system is in the stacked or extended
position. They should be handled with the same type of care as the panels. The Top and
Bottom of the pocket doors contain sweep seals which aid in completing the closure of the
doors.
