System overview
SG 3870 is closely related to SG 3840 but adds a published recess fitting option and a bendable recess profile. It is relevant to architectural details where the track needs to be integrated into the ceiling.
Suitable applications
- • Recessed track details
- • Wave curtains
- • Straight and bent installations
- • Premium domestic and commercial rooms
- • Projects requiring cord operation
When not to assume it fits
- • Recesses that are too narrow to install or service the track
- • Projects exceeding the published length or load guidance
- • Details that trap the cord controls or prevent component replacement
- • Use with unverified recess dimensions
Installation planning
Checks before fixing the track
1
Coordinate the recess before plastering or closing the ceiling
2
Allow installation and future maintenance access
3
Confirm the finished curtain drop from the actual glider line
4
Protect the recess profile during finishing work
5
Agree control-side access
Troubleshooting and failure clues
- • A poorly dimensioned recess can obstruct gliders or the curtain heading
- • Plaster contamination inside the channel can impair travel
- • A bowed recess can force the track out of alignment
