Telescopic Seating
As facilities look to utilize the space they have in different ways, the use of retractable chair seating continues to grow in popularity. Our innovative VersaTract telescopic seating system helps support this trend with scalable understructure components. What does this mean? It means you choose the type of seating appropriate for your facility, whether it's Infinity Seat Modules, Prestige Seating, or something in between, and we provide components for an incredibly stable walking surface and consistent, reliable operation.
In addition, VersaTract exceeds structural requirements for partial loading as defined by ICC 300 – 2017, Section 303.5 and ASCE-7-16, Section 4.4.
We're so confident in the design, materials, and construction of VersaTract, we back it by the industry's best warranty — 10 YEARS!

Rail Options
Rails are a vital safety component to any retractable seating system, they help with crowd control and egress while preventing injuries. We design our code compliant rails to be there when they're needed, minimizing storage and installation times. In addition to safety, rails need to be blend with the rest of the facility which is why our VersaDeck rail package includes so many options.
Smart Rails - Aisle Rails
Smart Rails are aisle rails that do not have to be removed when the system is stored. A quick lift and turn stores or deploys the rails!
VersaDeck Rail Options
Stylish new options for VersaDeck constructed systems.
Standard Front and Side Rails
Front, side and rear rails keep patrons safe.
Custom Rails
