The use of CURVE panel operation on curved tracks of the same radius provides the designer with a space division option that may be more compatible with the room design then can be achieved with the typical straight-line operable wall. Electrically operated curved systems typically consist of one or more sliding elements that store in a deep narrow pocket or parallel to an adjacent room wall. If the electric wall consists of several moving elements then it is typical to have each element travel on its own track with elements storing parallel to each other.

When manually operated, the designer can utilize all curved panels or can incorporate both curved and flat panels within the same operable wall. Panels are moved individually. Panel storage for manual operation is much the same as with t raditional operable walls but pocket depth may be s omewhat deeper in order to accommodate the curved elements.
