Strips Come In Several Different Materials

Close-up view of clear industrial PVC strip curtains showing flexible, overlapping strips designed for high-traffic doorways and openings.

PVC Strip Styles

Strips come in many different widths and lengths depending on your application. The most common is the clear flat or the clear ribbed. Clear industrial vinyl strip curtains maybe the most common but we also offer tinted and opaque versions as well. Many others include…

  • Clear Flat PVC Strips
  • Ribbed PVC Strips
  • Welding Grade PVC Strips
  • Food Safe PVC Strips
  • Safety Orange Strips
  • Opaque PVC Strips
  • Low temp PVC Strips
  • Frosted PVC Strips
  • ESD & Anti-static PVC Strips

PVC Strip Widths

Strips come in several different widths and thicknesses depending on the height of your opening and the type of traffic that will pass through it. The strip thickness is an important part of picking a strip for your PVC strip door so that entry and exit is quick and easy.

  • 15cm width x 1.5cm thick
  • 20cm width x 2cm thick
  • 30cm width x 3cm thick
  • 40cm width x 4cm thick
  • 60cm width x 6cm thick
Measuring Choosing The Correct Strips Hardware Material FAQ Ordering
Measuring

Step 1 – Width x Height

  • Measure the width and the height of the door
    opening or area where you want to install the
    strips.
  • Add 152 mm more in total height and add 152mm total in width
    if you want wall 
    mount hardware

Step 2 – Choose Your Hardware

  • Decide on the type of mounting that best fits
    your application

    • Wall mount is preferred on doorways. This gets
      the hardware out of the doorway and allows the
      strips to overlap the door jambs for maximum
      seal and air lock.
    • For in-jamb use header mount, simply order the
      exact size you need to span the opening.
    • Universal mount can also be used when you are
      not sure.

FAQ

Should I order the strips a little taller than the opening?
Only if you want, the wall mount hardware. With wall mount hardware, order the strips 152mm taller and 152mm wider than the opening you are trying to cover since you are mounting to the face of the opening. Otherwise, order the strips to the exact size of the opening.

Are the heights of the strips measured from the hole or the top of the strip?
The height is measured from the top of the strip to the bottom of the strip. The holes are located 19.05mm down from the top of the strip.

How do you cut the strips in the field?
You use a utility knife and a straight edge to keep the cut straight.

Do I need to cut the strips myself?
No. When you order a kit, we cut the strips to your specific opening height. However, we usually advise ordering a few centimeters longer than your exact opening height to allow for floor variations; you can easily trim the bottom with a Stanley knife after hanging them for a perfect fit.

What is the difference between "Minimum" and "Maximum" overlap?
Minimum Overlap: Uses fewer strips. The strips overlap slightly (usually ~50mm). This is easier for pedestrians to walk through and costs less. Best for internal partitions.

Maximum Overlap: Uses more strips with a deeper overlap (usually ~100mm). This creates a tighter seal against wind, rain, and cold. We recommend this for external doorways or areas where insulation is the top priority.

What are "Marker Strips"?
These are Red Warning Strips that we can include for the edges of your curtain. They act as a visual safety guide for forklift drivers and pedestrians, clearly marking the edges of the doorway to prevent collisions with the door frame. If you want these, just ask for them.
