Ripley Court School

Quite a challenging project at this private school for girls in the Surrey countryside. they had a Gymnasium which was almost unused as new facilities had been built but the requirement was for a Drama Studio and occasional Theatre. There was precious little to support the weight of tracks and due to the height conventional support was not practicable. Added to which the school wanted all the curtains to be hauled upwards when not in use. Quite challenging! However we conceived a system of pulleys and bars so that the staff could lower the tracking down to the required level then either leave curtains on and pull them into the roof space - or take off and store the curtains and pull the poles up. It worked very well and satisfied their needs admirably.
