Six Track — Professional Stage Curtain Track

Doughty's steel stage curtain track system for professional theatres, concert venues and large-scale installations. The Six Track system is configurable as walk-along, line-operated or motorised, making it the most versatile system in the range. Strong steel fabrication with a tubular top hanger bar and rectangular section tube rails, finished in black powder coat.
