Chabuki Drop
 
 
 
 

The Chabuki Name: Simply a combination of my name "Chuy" and "kabuki", by dropping the "k" and adding the "Ch" you arrive at Chabuki.

Chabuki - Fragoso, Inc.

Motivation to Design the Chabuki: Fragoso Inc. was motivated to design and build a curtain release system that performed with absolute reliability. The result, the Chabuki, the strongest most reliable curtain release system available, all other kabuki systems are simply inferior. The entertainment industry no longer has to be at the mercy of the unreliable, finger crossing, "please let it work", kabuki curtain drop. Why not utilize the Chabuki, the most superior system available? Do not risk your client's event and your reputation. The Chabuki system is unsurpassed, everyone who has worked with the system undeniably prefers it over any other system.

 

Patent Pending Features

RAPID SET:
“so fast and easy you can do it with your eyes closed”  



LEVERAGED SWING RELEASE :
Chabuki’s key feature in achieving incredible strength and reliability, versus standard kabuki linear pull release systems.

HIGHEST LOAD DROP CAPACITY IN THE INDUSTRY:

2 channels via single cable run, both channel 1 & 2 units are connected with the same cable run, there is no chance of improper cabling during setup.

RECESSED TWIST LOCK CABLE CONNECTORS :
provide secure connections and increased durability during transport.

INDICATOR LIGHT:
plugs into the last unit assuring that all cable connections are properly made and that there is power present at the final unit in the system. Light is activated by the "enable" button on the controller.
