A guide rail device for laterally guiding a rolling door or rolling grille armor of a rolling door or rolling grille includes a guide rail for vertically guiding the rolling door or rolling grille armor, an infeed funnel for guiding the rolling door or rolling grille armor into an entry area of the guide rail, with the infeed funnel being movable relative to the guide rail, and a damping body connected to the infeed funnel which dampens vibrations and shocks of the infeed funnel. Further, a rolling door or rolling grille includes a first guide rail device and a second guide rail device. In particular, the guide rail of the first guide rail device is fixed laterally on the building opening, and the guide rail of the second guide rail device is fixed laterally on the opposite side of the building opening.

A magnetic track assembly including an elongate channel having an open side, an end wall, and two parallel side walls; a first magnet disposed within the elongate channel near an interior side of the end wall; a compartment defined within the elongate channel spaced from the first magnet; and a screen receiver disposed within the compartment and including a second magnet arranged facing the first magnet. In the magnetic track assembly, the first and second magnets are of opposite polarity and the screen receiver is loosely disposed within the compartment such that a magnetic bond is intact between the first and second magnets when the first and second magnets are close together and the magnetic bond is broken when the first and second magnets are pulled apart.

According to some aspects, provided are curtain assemblies configured to operate in high wind environments. The curtain assembly can include first and second track guide including internal security rails. The internal securing rails moveably engage end portions of fabric stiffeners to provide stability in the curtain. In some embodiments, the securing rails include ramp portions to accommodate drift in the curtain and/or fabric stiffeners without compromising operation of the curtain.

Examples of rail assemblies for architectural coverings disclosed herein stabilize motor assemblies via end caps to reduce transfers of vibrational motor forces to the rails. An example rail for an architectural covering includes a housing, a motor to be disposed in the housing, and an end cap to be coupled to said housing. The example rail includes a track defined in an exterior face of the rail. A first portion of the end cap is to be received in the track. The end cap is capable of at least two degrees of freedom of motion relative to the housing prior to the first portion being received in the track. In the example rail, the track is to restrict the at least two degrees of freedom of motion of the end cap when the first portion of the end cap is received in the track.

In one or more arrangements, a retractable screen system is provided. The system includes a roller tube having an exterior surface. A screen is connected to the roller tube and an upper edge of the screen. The screen rolls up around the exterior surface of the roller tube when the roller tube is rotated in a first direction, thereby retracting the screen, and unroll the screen from roller tube when the roller tube is rotated the opposite direction, thereby deploying the screen. In one or more arrangements, the retractable screen system has a roller tube that may be adjusted in length, circumference, and/or shape of the roller edge, for example, to help prevent or mitigate undesirable artifacts that may otherwise become visible stretching of screen material, wrinkling/creasing of screen material, sagging of a roller tube, uneven weight distribution or tension, and/or, bunching of screen materials on a roller tube.

The invention relates to a door comprising a door leaf (10) which can be moved between an open position and a closed position and a guide arrangement for guiding the movement of the door leaf along a predefined path between the open position in the closed position, wherein the guide arrangement has at least one guide web (100) which is arranged fixedly with respect to a wall opening, extends at least along a portion of the predetermined path, and has two outer boundary surfaces (102, 104) and at least two guide devices (32, 34) which are fastened to the door leaf (10), wherein a first outer boundary surface (102) of the guide web (100) forms a surface for a first guide device (32) and the second outer boundary surface (104) of the guide web (100) forms a second guide surface (104) for a second guide device (34). Magnetic devices (1000, 1010, 1100) can be arranged on the door leaf and on the guide bar for guiding in a contactless manner.

A screen assembly for a window includes a pair of parallel and spaced apart side rails locatable against respective sides of a window opening, and a head assembly including a roller upon which is wound a screen. The head assembly extends between the side rails and is adapted to be mounted on upper ends of the side rails to be supported thereon against and/or adjacent to an upper side of the window opening. Each side rail is linearly extendable whereby the upper and lower ends of the side rails frictionally engage upper and lower faces of a window opening to secure the side rails, and the head assembly mounted thereon, in place within the window opening.

An upright including two flanks between which a profiled element for a shading system can be inserted is described. At least one of the flanks is associated with a removable flange, and a damping device is arranged between the removable flange and a base of the upright so as to retain the flange between the base and the flank. Furthermore, the removable flange of the upright and the damping device for fixing the flange to the upright are described. The damping device includes a channel with a substantially C-shaped cross-section which is mounted on an edge of the removable flange, and a flexible plastic tongue having one end on the channel and an opposite end at a distance therefrom and making contact with the base of the upright.

A magnetic track assembly including an elongate channel having an open side, an end wall, and two parallel side walls; a first magnet disposed within the elongate channel near an interior side of the end wall; a compartment defined within the elongate channel spaced from the first magnet; and a screen receiver disposed within the compartment and including a second magnet arranged facing the first magnet. In the magnetic track assembly, the first and second magnets are of opposite polarity and the screen receiver is loosely disposed within the compartment such that a magnetic bond is intact between the first and second magnets when the first and second magnets are close together and the magnetic bond is broken when the first and second magnets are pulled apart.

A perimeter light blockout system for minimizing light leakage between light gaps such as, for example, between the sides of a covering (e.g., shade) of an architectural-structure covering and the interior side surfaces of a window frame, or between the covering and the outer surface of an interior wall is disclosed. The perimeter light blockout system including a light blocking device and a mounting element for coupling the light blocking device to the interior side surface of the window frame, or the outer surface of the interior wall. The light blocking device may include rear and front channel members. The mounting element may be a mounting extrusion. Alternatively, the mounting element may be a spring clip. In use, the light blocking device may be adapted and configured so as not to contact the covering as the covering moves between extended and retracted positions. The mounting element may include a degree of adjustment so that the light blocking device may be aligned with an out-of-skew window frame.
