It's All About the Hinge.

Our Room Divider 360 articulating hinge

The Room Divider 360 Articulating Partition is our best-selling portable partition for many reasons - one of which being its patented hinge design.  The 360° hinges allow a variety of setup configurations thanks to the natural movement. From a regular straight line, to an "L" shape, to a complete circle, the Room Divider 360's hinges allow a vast array of setup configurations to remedy even the most awkward of room designs.

Inferior piano-hinged partition

You  may have noticed that other room divider manufacturers use inferior piano hinges on their portable partitions. Aside from occasionally pinching fingers, these cheap hinges only allow 180° movement, and are difficult and time-consuming to get completely straight. Usually, the partition remains in a slight zig-zag shape, which just looks plain ugly to us.
