Systems and Methods for Deployment of Curtains

A curtain system comprising:

• a curtain body;
• a plurality of curtain engaging members attached to the curtain body, the curtain engaging members each comprising a first end and a second end, the first end operable for engagement with a respective curtain release mechanism, the second end operable for attachment to the curtain body;
• a keyway formed in the plurality of curtain engaging members, wherein the keyways of the plurality of curtain engaging members are configured to be aligned;
• and
• a key that can be inserted through a plurality of the keyways of curtain engaging members at the same time to thereby support corresponding curtain engaging members and the curtain body on the key.

A curtain system for suspending a curtain, the curtain system comprising:

• a plurality of curtain release mechanisms, each curtain release mechanism comprising a user operable mechanism configured for retention of and subsequent release of a curtain to and from the corresponding curtain release mechanism;
• wherein the user operable mechanism of each of the curtain release mechanisms is operable between a first position for coupling the curtain to the corresponding curtain release mechanism and a second position for releasing the curtain from the corresponding curtain release mechanism;
• and
• wherein the user operable mechanism of each of the curtain release mechanisms defines a keyway, and wherein the curtain release mechanisms can be positioned to receive a key through the keyway of each of the curtain release mechanisms such that the user operable mechanisms of the curtain release mechanisms can be operated together by the key from the first position to the second position.
