Hospitality Partitions Already in Service Worldwide
Advanced Equipment has delivered operable partitions to hospitality properties on three continents and under six global flags — Ritz-Carlton, Marriott, JW Marriott, Hyatt, Hilton, and W. The work ranges from Cairo's largest hotel ballroom at The Nile Ritz-Carlton, where 9,807 SF of SIGMA 'D' all-welded steel panels divide the event floor, to resort meeting space on Costa Rica's remote Osa Peninsula and a waterfront Hyatt on Lake Washington.
Panel selection follows the room, not a catalog default. The Hyatt Regency Lake Washington combines SIGMA 'B' panels in custom fabric for primary ballroom division with SIGMA 'D' panels in custom walnut wood veneer used as architectural features in corridor and suite-level spaces — 8,713 SF across #2, #3, and #8 track systems. At the JW Marriott Ihilani on Oahu, manual ALPHA 'S' panels on #1 track carry the acoustic load while IMAGE 'J' glass panels on #1A track keep the tropical views open when privacy is not needed.
Finish matching is routine rather than an upcharge conversation: custom walnut veneer at the Hyatt, custom fabric at Hotel W Reserva Conchal, vinyl chosen to sit against teak interiors at Hilton Botanika, and a wood-clad-and-mirror treatment at Daniel's Broiler in Bellevue, where a 334 SF partition closes a private dining room without breaking the steakhouse's open sightlines.
Hospitality Specifications at a Glance
Hospitality questions we get most
How much sound isolation can an operable partition give me between ballroom sections?
ALPHA® all-steel panels carry field-tested NIC 42 under ASTM E 336, with laboratory ratings to STC 54 — and we guarantee field sound ratings on our large operable walls. Sound test reports are in our document library.
Can the partition finish be matched to our interior design?
Yes — custom wood veneer, fabric, vinyl, and glass. The Hyatt Regency Lake Washington uses custom walnut veneer matched to the hotel's interior palette; Hotel W Reserva Conchal uses a custom fabric; Daniel's Broiler uses a wood-clad and mirror finish specified to match an upscale steakhouse interior.
How fast can banquet staff turn a room between events?
Paired-panel systems fold and stack symmetrically, so one person can open or close a run without tools. For very large event spaces, Spacematic® automation sets up exhibit halls and event floors automatically, cutting the time and labor of dividing large rooms.
Do you install outside the United States?
Yes. Hospitality installations include The Nile Ritz-Carlton and the Cairo Marriott in Egypt, Hilton Botanika and Hotel W Reserva Conchal in Costa Rica, and the JW Marriott Ihilani on Oahu. We design, manufacture, and install as one company.
