Used primarily on free stall barns with high side walls, the Sturdy Built Double Roll-up Curtain is a maintenance-free system with convenience and flexibility. The 70:30 lower and upper variable height allows the air to enter the barn at a higher level in cooler weather, minimizing uncomfortable airflow. The lower portion can be rolled up for maximum ventilation during warm summer months.
The Sturdy Built Center Roll-up Curtain is designed especially for the gable ends on free stall barns, or on any facility where overhead clearance is needed.

Our bolt-together curtain drive adapters are machined to fit snugly inside, ensuring slip-free, everyday operation.
Sturdy Built galvanized curtain drive and tail doors are manufactured in multiple lengths to fit specific curtain openings. The practical hinging design and hand latches provide easy drive access. The doors protect the drive assemblies, lengthening the life of the drive mechanisms, and reduce air flow behind the curtain. Hinging doors are available for the left or right drive ends, and center doors are optional for longer curtains.
