Guestroom 2010 Installation 06.16.08
Here are some photos of the Powerslide installation at Guestroom 2010, part of the HITECH convention in Austin, TX from 06.17.08-06.19.08. Our prototype is mounted to a closet sliding door within the “Guestroom” - a temporary hotel room designed to display future products for the hospitality industry. It turned out pretty well and we are satisfied with the results, minus a few minor hiccups - but hey, it is a prototype!
