Because solid strips block the view, use them where traffic is slow or controlled. On busy vehicle routes, a clear vision panel or clear strips at eye level is safer.

Specification

How to calculate strips from a roll

Strips needed = opening width ÷ (strip width − overlap), rounded up. Metres of roll = strips × (opening height + a small allowance for hanging).

Example: a doorway 1,200 mm wide and 2,100 mm high, using 200 mm strips with a 50% overlap (100 mm). Strips needed = 1,200 ÷ 100 = 12. With 100 mm allowance per strip, roll needed = 12 × 2.2 m = 26.4 m, so one 50 m roll makes this curtain with plenty left over.

Cutting and fitting tips

• Cut square with a sharp knife against a straight edge, and cut all strips to the same length.
• Punch or drill hanger holes to suit your rail or hook-on clamps, keeping them in line on every strip.
• Leave a small gap above the floor so strips are not dragged by wheels or feet.

Questions

Can you see through solid blue strips?
No. They are opaque, which makes them ideal for privacy screens and hiding untidy areas, but not for doorways where drivers need to see through.

What does one unit include?
One 50 m roll of the strip size you select. You cut it into strips yourself.

Which strip size suits a forklift doorway?
The 300mm x 3mm strip is the usual choice for pallet trucks and forklifts; 200mm x 2mm suits pedestrian doorways.

How much overlap should I use?
Use 40% to 56% overlap for a lighter, lower-cost curtain, or 80% to 100% for a heavier curtain with a better barrier.

Is it suitable for freezers?
No low-temperature rating is given for this colour, so for cold rooms and freezers choose a low-temperature grade.
