Hamilton High School West, Hamilton Township, NJ - New Interkal® Bleachers

Almost-new, three-year-old telescopic bleachers are hard to open, very difficult to close. Why?

Because that’s what was specified, when the “minimum” specifications for these bleachers was OK’d. The design criteria met all the legal requirements -- the absolute minimum required by law -- but it didn’t meet what the bleacher owner REALLY needed, which was bleachers that would not sag, no matter what.
