ABSTRACT:
An automatic end closure system for use in conjunction with a typical telescoping bleacher assembly. The automatic end closure system substantially blocks ingress and egress to the undersection of the telescoping bleacher assembly which prevents mischievous or curious spectators from causing harm to themselves or to the equipment contained in the undersection. The automatic end closure system basically includes a plurality of panels, a plurality of guidance tracks, a plurality of panel locking engagements and wheels. Each of the panels may be composed of an inner metal framing covered with a wooden facade. The automatic end closure system may be an add-on or integrated component of the telescoping bleacher assembly. Once connected to the telescoping bleacher assembly, the automatic end closure system automatically expands and retracts with the expansion and retraction of the telescoping bleacher assembly. When the automatic end closure system is in its retracted state, the plurality of panels rests in horizontal juxtaposition to each other thereby conserving space when not in use for an event.
