| Eliminate Structural Fatigue! The biggest problem with telescopic bleachers is structural fatigue caused by improper operation, as well as downward loads in closed and partially open positions. Despite the efforts of bleacher owners to monitor their bleachers, 100% supervision is impossible. When students climb the front of bleachers, footboard and seatboard supports fail, and bleachers can become unsafe and may eventually collapse. CENTURY DESIGNTM Continuous Footboard Support System CENTURY DESIGNTM by the Bleacherman is a unique, continuous footboard system that protects the seating understructure from damage resulting from downward loads in both closed and partially open positions. Footboard support system, wheels, coupled to the foot extensions, travel continuously on the seatboards and seat level aisle, supporting the understructure in all positions - from closed through fully extended. (Patent No. 5,784,835) Misuse and Abuse? - No Problem ! To get the full, useable life of your bleachers (100+ years), the CENTURY DESIGNTM in addition to means of egress, requires a "Push Button" Full Power System. Heavy-duty, friction-drive motors are located beneatrh the second row footboard to assure long-term, trouble-free use. Bleacher sections move as one rigid unit, and take all the misuse and abuse that students can dish out! All you need to do is keep the area under the bleachers clean and free of any debris. "Worry-Free," 20-Year Warranty Bleachermans renewable 20-Year Warranty and service contract take effect after the installation of the CENTURY DESIGNTM on new or remanufactured telescopic bleachers. We guarantee long-term protection against structural fatigue, and have written the warranty to specifically include damage to the understructure due to misuse from leaving the bleachers in partially open or closed positions. All parts and labor are included for the understructure and motor system. The service contract provides options for annual or biennial inspection and maintenance, as required by code. Manufacturers of telescopic bleachers instruct owners not to allow students to climb fronts of bleachers in the closed position. Always open and close bleachers evenly. Do not leave bleachers partially open as this may cause damage to the understructure. In reality some of the above happens every day in most gyms and damage to understructure does occur. Maufacturers provide an option for full power "push button" operation only which eliminates:
However the owner also needs, in addition to full power, a continuous footboard support system. Manufacturers do not provide it, unless specified. CENTURY DESIGNTM prevents damage to understructure due to:
AND eliminates problems from:
CENTURY DESIGNTM is versatile; allows for partial open seating where sports apparatus or other activity restricts bleachers from fully open position.
