Performance Specification · MAXAM+
§ 01
Overview
Premium fieldhouse / multi-purpose / showcase
The premium variant of the patented slant-frame telescopic platform behind 10+ million seats installed worldwide with zero structural failures.
Independently verified under ICC-ES Evaluation Report ESR-5033 — the first and only ICC-ES Evaluation Report in the telescopic seating industry. Independent third-party structural testing to 200 % of design load confirms the safety margin behind that record.
MAXAM+ is engineered for venues where the bleacher experience must match the room. The heavier gauges support wider row spacing and the point loads from beam-mount seating.
§ 02
Application Profile
Venues MAXAM+ is built for
| Venue tier | Why it fits | Recommended seating |
|---|---|---|
| Collegiate & university gymnasiums | Wall-attached, integral PowerFrame; venue tier deserves the wider row and beam-mount option | CourtSide XCS12 · Metro · Flex-Row™ |
| Multi-purpose halls & performing-arts crossover | Recessed or wall-attached, PowerFrame; clean retracted aesthetic | Gallery 3 · Club Bench |
| Showcase venues & multi-use arenas | Wall-attached, wireless control, Auto-Fold; full Hussey +Camatic chair line | Quantum · Forte |
§ 03
Engineering · Understructure
The understructure — heavier gauge, beam-mount-ready
F-01
Heavier-gauge slant-frame
Post columns 1½″ × 4″ × 11-gauge (38 × 102 × 3.0 mm); cantilever arms 7-gauge (4.6 mm). Both MAXAM and MAXAM+ meet the same ICC 300 load criteria — the heavier gauges support the wider 30″, 32″, or 33″ row spacing (762, 813, or 838 mm) and accommodate point loads from beam-mount chairs.
F-02
Continuous Positive Interglide (CPI)
Skirted U-shape wheel channel with patented Low-Profile Posi-Lock LX row locks — prevents separation, transmits sway loads under occupant load, and supports field row-spacing adjustment in 2″ (50 mm) increments.
F-03
Lubrication-free for life
No annual greasing. No maintenance contract. No consumables. The system is sealed at install and stays quiet for the life of the platform.
F-04
Deck Lock — standard inclusion
Cast-steel pawl welded to each stabiliser mates to a nylon capture bracket. Eliminates relative vertical movement between adjacent decks for a quiet, solid walking surface — particularly noticeable on lightly-loaded uses. Every MAXAM+ section ships with Deck Lock.

Drive
UL-Listed PowerFrame PF1–PF4 integrated into row 1 or row 2 — factory-matched and sized to bank length
Row limits & bank scale. Scales to 30 rows wall-attached. Section widths 9'-0″ to 19'-6″ (2 740–5 940 mm). Freestanding and reverse-fold cap at 17 rows.
Control & safety. Wireless pendant with RFID safety timeout; motion monitor for deployment status and safety; optional wired pendant. Flex-Row™ barrier-free modules (2–7 seats wide) integrate at row 1; PowerFrame on row 2 means the Flex-Row stays accessible in both stowed and deployed positions.
§ 05
Retractable Operation Modes
| Mode | How it works | Right for |
|---|---|---|
| Manual | Foot-assist raise; gangs of 1–4 at each row. Mechanically simple, no power dependency. | K–12 multi-purpose, single-custodian operation, light turnover. |
| Lift-Assist | Tool-actuated from aisle; gas spring + gas strut; up to 14 chairs as one ganged row — operator never touches an individual chair. | Universities, multi-purpose halls, convention centres. |
| Auto-Fold | Lift-Assist hardware with cascading row-strike — set Row 1 with the tool, then closing the bank folds every subsequent row on its own. | High-volume venues, multiple events per week. |
Cross-platform standardization
The full CourtSide line runs on both MAXAM and MAXAM+; Metro, Quantum, and Forte run on both MAXAM+ and MXP. A facility planning across standard gyms, premium fieldhouses, and arena venues can specify a coherent chair family on every platform — every retractable chair on MAXAM+ runs the same Manual / Lift-Assist / Auto-Fold operation menu.
