Project Overview
About This Project
The MG100 movable acoustic wall system at Derby Racecourse Football Hub demonstrates how operable partition systems can transform a multi-use venue — from football coaching to corporate functions. The top-hung panels allow single-person operation, providing Rw 59 dB acoustic separation between simultaneous activities.
01 — The Design Challenge
What problem needed solving?
Derby Racecourse Football Hub required a flexible partition system that could divide the main space for multiple simultaneous activities — from football coaching sessions to corporate events and community functions. The system needed to be operable by a single person, provide excellent acoustic separation, and be robust enough for heavy daily use in a busy sports and leisure environment.
This type of flexible space division challenge is where ModernGlide's operable wall and acoustic partition systems excel — delivering both acoustic performance and design integrity.
02 — The System Solution
How ModernGlide solved it
ModernGlide installed the MG100 movable acoustic wall system. The top-hung panels require no floor track, leaving a clear, unobstructed floor that is easy to clean and safe for sports activities. The system achieves Rw up to 59 dB acoustic performance — the highest in the ModernGlide range — providing effective separation between adjacent activities. Single-person operation means the space can be reconfigured quickly between uses.
