Travelers passing through U.S. Customs at the international airport see a unique security partition of strong, yet flexible mesh that raises and lowers mechanically. The fabric’s large open weave creates a sense of openness and an unobtrusive and polished look for the secure space. Each curtain panel connects to prevent individuals and materials from passing through. The bottoms of each panel rise simultaneously. When lowered, electromagnets hold the panels to the floor and make them immovable.
