Low-Profile Design

Breaks the Tier-Height Limit

Conventional telescopic bleachers need tall tiers, which rules out venues with a low ceiling. The Gentleman Series steps down to as little as 130 mm per tier — so height-restricted halls, activity rooms and refurbishment projects can still have full stepped seating.

130mm minimum tier height

Electric Telescopic Bleachers Built for Education Venues

The Gentleman Series is an electric telescopic bleacher system developed by IEQ for kindergartens, schools and multi-purpose halls. Extended, it forms a stepped seating bank; retracted, it folds into a compact stack against the wall and gives the whole floor back to the room.

The electric drive keeps every row travelling in parallel and in sync. An upper guide rail and a lower slide rail form a double guidance mechanism, working with an adjustable stroke linkage on each row and an automatic row lock, so the bleacher opens and closes row by row — no skewing, no jamming.

  • Tier height as low as 130 mm — fits venues with restricted ceiling height
  • Upholstered folding seats with an ergonomic profile
  • Silent torsion seat return — folds back softly, without impact
  • E1-grade low-emission boards — kindergarten-level safety
  • Dimensions, row count and fabric colour fully customisable

Core Advantages

Every detail of the structure and the seat is engineered for safety and long service life

Breaks the Height Limit — 130 mm per Tier

Each tier can be as low as 130 mm, so venues with limited ceiling height can still be fitted with stepped seating.

Shaft-Drive Electric Motor

An aluminium worm gearbox drives the transmission shaft and drive wheels — smooth, quiet running at 0.17 m/s.

Synchronised Parallel Travel

Double guidance mechanism plus an adjustable stroke linkage keeps travel perfectly parallel; rows open and close in sequence without skewing.

Silent Damped Return

Torsion-spring seat return and one-way damped backrest fold back gently — no banging, no impact.

Complete Safety Package

Self-nesting guardrail over 1,100 mm high, row locks against accidental retraction, emergency stop and a retraction warning bell.

Maintenance-Free Castors

Twin-hardness rubber wheels of 100 mm or more, five per column to spread the load — equally at home on timber or concrete floors.

Low-Emission Materials

E1-grade MDF end panels, fire-retardant anti-slip treads and laser-cut high-density foam.

Sample Seat — Fold & Return

Seat lifts and drops with a light touch; backrest returns on a damper, quietly and without impact.
