In the fast-paced, competitive world of broadcast TV, isolating the sound stage from on-going construction noise is critical to the financial success of the studio. Jamison has supplied sliding doors as large as 20' x 24' with STC ratings in the high 50's for several major television production studios.

ABC

You'll find Jamison doors at ABC's Washington Network News Bureau, behind the scenes of "Good Morning America" and "The Oprah Winfrey Show" and on a number of soap opera sets including "General Hospital" and "All My Children."

Keenes

This 20' x 23' power-operated, vertical sliding door at Keene State College in New Hampshire creates a small "black box" theatre behind the main theatre. When the door is shut, the black box serves as a classroom or mini theatre. The door also creates a unique set for the larger theatre when images are projected through the open door to create exciting scenic and backdrop elements during performances.

QVC

This STC 51 power-operated single horizontal sliding door installed in a major shopping network television studio closes a 10'-wide x 8'-high opening. Six doors isolate outside noise from hallways and preparation rooms from the studio where live broadcasts originate nearly 24 hours a day. The doors are operable from both sides to allow easy passage of personnel and display props.

NYCU

This STC 57 double-swinging door at the New York City University Performing Arts Center isolates scenery construction shop noise adjacent to the stage. Extra-large scene construction and props pass easily through either side of this 18' x 20' door.
