Side edge sections of th e curtain are movable in respective guide members. Each guide has inner and outer wall sections with each wall section having an inwardly projecting, longitudinal rib. The two ribs of each guide form an elongate slot that receives a side edge section of the curtain. Each rib has an elongate interior surface which is concave i n transverse cross-section. These concave surfaces form an elongate split curv ed socket for engaging curtain cocks. The preferred locks are made of low friction UHMW plastic and have a main body section with a rounded exterior surfac e.
