ALECO Air Curtains
How do ALECO air curtains work?
An air curtain creates a powerful, controlled stream of air across an open doorway, helping prevent flying insects, dust and outside air from entering while allowing people, equipment and deliveries to pass through freely. ALECO commercial and industrial air curtains help maintain indoor temperatures, improve energy efficiency and support cleaner, more comfortable environments. Ideal for high-traffic doorways in restaurants, food processing facilities, warehouses and cold storage areas, air curtains provide an effective barrier without restricting access.
Where are ALECO air curtains commonly used?
Kitchen and service entry doors, Walk-in coolers, Food and beverage processing doorways, Concession windows and drive-thrus, Customer entries in food retail

ALECO Safe/Vue® Industrial Partitions
How do ALECO industrial partitions work?
ALECO Safe/Vue® industrial partitions are custom vinyl curtain walls designed to divide large industrial and commercial spaces without permanent construction. These flexible partitions help contain dust, debris, noise and odors while creating designated work areas for manufacturing, welding, packaging and warehouse operations. Available in a variety of materials, colors and configurations, Safe/Vue partitions can be customized to fit your facility’s layout and operational needs. Sliding track systems allow sections to open for personnel, equipment and material movement, providing a versatile alternative to traditional fixed walls.
What do ALECO industrial partitions help control?
- Dust and airborne debris
- Noise
- Odors
- Welding hazards
How Safe/Vue partitions are built

| Material weight | 14 oz/ft² or 22 oz/ft² |
| Materials & colors | Translucent, opaque and mesh panels in a range of colors, including clear. Top, middle and bottom sections can each be a different material |
| Mounting systems | Threaded rod, floor support, beam, wall or ceiling mounted |
| Hardware | Brass grommets along the top (standard 12″ spacing) for sliding on a track. Optional extra grommets on sides or bottom |
| Options | Full-height hook-and-loop seam to close panels together. Chain weight in the hem to keep the bottom from swinging |
| Ordering | Made to order from your measurements. Custom partitions are non-returnable once approved for production |

Frequently asked questions
What is an air curtain used for?
An air curtain blows a stream of air down across a doorway to help keep insects, dust and outside air out while the door is open. Restaurants, food processors and cold-storage operations use them on doors that open constantly.
Are ALECO air curtains NSF certified?
Yes. The ALECO Low Profile 7 air curtain is sanitation certified and EPH listed per NSF/ANSI 37. Health department requirements vary by city and county, so confirm with your local inspector what your doorway needs.
How high can an ALECO air curtain be mounted?
The Low Profile 7 is rated for mounting heights up to 7 feet for insect control. For taller openings, ALECO makes air curtains for larger doors, including dock and warehouse doors. Larger units require a site survey before ordering. Call either store and we’ll help you get started.
Does the air curtain run all the time?
No. It requires an activation device. The standard option is a plunger-style door switch that turns the unit on when the door opens. Door controller and building automation versions are also available.
What sizes do ALECO air curtains come in?
36, 42, 48, 60 and 72 inches wide, in white, black or stainless steel. Choose a width at least as wide as your door opening.
What is a Safe/Vue industrial partition?
Safe/Vue is ALECO’s line of vinyl curtain partitions. They hang from a track to divide a facility into separate work zones, helping contain dust, noise, odors and welding hazards without permanent construction.
Are Safe/Vue partitions custom made?
Yes. Each partition is made to order from your measurements, materials and mounting choice. Custom partitions are non-returnable once approved, so we confirm the spec with you before it goes into production.
