Description

PART NO K2500


The K2500 safety curtain track reduces ligature risks as it fits flush to the wall or the ceiling. When under excess load, the curtain will be removed from the track, keeping the track securely in place. Anti-ligature gliders - that cannot be removed - come as standard and allow the curtain to move along the track.


Features and benefits:

  • Designed with safety in mind, the K2500 fixed curtain track prevents service users from removing it and using it inappropriately, making it well-suited for mental health environments.
  • We can bend the aluminium track to fit within bay windows and ensuite showers and cubicles, providing privacy whilst reducing the risk of ligature and weapons risk.
  • The K2500 is supplied with two types of gliders as standard: K204 heavy-weight gliders (grey) and K2501 low-weight gliders (white). The standard installation uses a mixture of the two gliders, achieving a 15kg release weight.
  • When the track is fitted using only the K204 heavy-duty gliders (grey), it can support a load up to 20kg, whereas using only the K2501 low-weight gliders (white) supports a weight up to 10kg.
  • The smooth operation of the anti-ligature gliders ensures ease of use and reduces the chance of the curtain being pulled down due to heavy manual handling.
  • The load release gliders stay within the track making the curtain easy to re-install if removed. This design also ensures there is less plastic in the curtain when it is separated from the track.
  • There are no large gaps between the gliders keeping the appearance of the curtain consistent. No large plastic parts can be removed from the curtain or the track. 
  • The reduced ligature curtain track is easy to install, wipe-clean and requires little maintenance.
  • The premium aluminium track comes as standard in white with rounded end brackets. Pin hex anti-tamper security screws are secured into countersunk fixing holes at 150 mm intervals to provide a tight fit to the wall or ceiling. Supplied with 16 anti-ligature gliders per meter for a smooth curtain pull.


*Load release safety tests were conducted with 3 mm wide curtain hooks. Curtains are not supplied.

  • Face-fix or top-fix
  • Top-fix version can be bent to fit bay windows and showers
  • Option 1 – standard – 15kg load release with the alternating grey and white gliders.
  • Option 2 – low weight – 10kg load release with all white gliders.
