Portable privacy screens are mobile room dividers mounted on wheels that create instant privacy barriers without permanent installation. They work by rolling into position on smooth-gliding medical-grade casters, then locking in place with foot-activated wheel locks. Unlike fixed walls or ceiling-mounted curtain tracks, portable screens can be repositioned in seconds to adapt to changing space requirements throughout your facility.

Each screen consists of connected panels (typically 3-5 panels) made from durable, wipeable materials mounted on a steel frame. The panels can be solid for complete privacy or partially transparent for visual monitoring while maintaining dignity. Screens fold for compact storage when not needed.

Portable privacy screens provide superior infection control compared to fabric curtains. Studies show hospital curtains become contaminated with MRSA, VRE, and other pathogens within hours of installation, and fabric materials harbor bacteria in their weave even after laundering.

Rolascreen portable privacy screens feature smooth, non-porous surfaces that can be disinfected immediately after each patient encounter using hospital-grade cleaners, bleach solutions, or EPA-registered disinfectants. The wipeable panels don't trap bacteria, and the entire screen can be cleaned in under two minutes versus curtain removal, laundering, and reinstallation which can take days.

Rolascreen offers portable privacy screens in multiple configurations to meet different facility needs. Standard heights range from 6 feet to 8 feet tall to accommodate various ceiling heights and privacy requirements. Panel widths typically range from 18 to 24 inches per panel.

Common configurations include 3-panel screens (approximately 54-72 inches wide when extended), 4-panel screens (72-96 inches), and 5-panel screens (90-120 inches). Panels can be solid for complete privacy, windowed for visual monitoring, or custom printed with your branding, calming imagery, or educational content.

Yes, Rolascreen specializes in custom-branded portable privacy screens. Panel surfaces can be printed with your facility logo, calming healthcare imagery, wayfinding graphics, patient education content, or any custom design you specify.

Custom branding transforms functional privacy barriers into professional-looking branded assets that reinforce your organization's identity while serving practical purposes. Printed graphics are durable, cleanable, and won't peel or fade with regular disinfection. Many healthcare systems use branded screens to create cohesive visual environments across multiple facilities.

Portable privacy screens are designed for single-person operation and frequent repositioning. Medical-grade casters roll smoothly across carpet, tile, and vinyl flooring with minimal effort. Quick-release foot pedals lock and unlock wheels in seconds without bending over.

For storage, screens fold flat or nest together to minimize footprint in equipment rooms, closets, or against walls. A typical 5-panel screen reduces to approximately 6-8 inches thick when folded. The durable construction means screens can be stacked or stored vertically without damage, and they require no special climate control or maintenance while in storage.

Rolascreen portable privacy screens are built for 10+ years of daily use in high-traffic healthcare, educational, and corporate environments. The commercial-grade steel frames resist bending and corrosion, while durable panel materials withstand thousands of disinfection cycles without degrading.

Unlike fabric curtains that require replacement every 3-6 months due to contamination concerns, or temporary room dividers that crack and warp under regular use, Rolascreen's construction quality ensures long-term value. Many facilities report screens still in excellent condition after 15 years of continuous service, making them a cost-effective investment compared to disposable alternatives.

Yes, Rolascreen portable privacy screens meet relevant healthcare facility codes and infection control standards. The non-porous, cleanable surfaces comply with CDC guidelines for environmental surface disinfection in healthcare settings. Screens are compatible with EPA-registered hospital disinfectants and can withstand bleach-based cleaning protocols.

For fire safety, panels meet NFPA and local fire code requirements for flame spread ratings. The mobile design doesn't obstruct egress paths since screens can be quickly moved aside in emergencies. Rolascreen can provide specific compliance documentation for your jurisdiction's building codes, infection control requirements, and accreditation standards upon request.
