Town: Barking
Postcode district: IG11
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Draught control. A curtain across the opening holds back draughts and helps keep temperatures steady.
Ribbed strips. Ribs protect the clear face of each strip from scratches on busy vehicle routes.
Traffic passes freely. People, trolleys and forklifts push straight through the overlapping strips.
Specialist grades. Tinted strips for insect control or welding bays, and anti-static grades where needed.
No power. With no electrics involved, the curtain keeps working with only cleaning and strip renewal.

Examples of work we can quote for

Supplying replacement strips cut to length for existing hook-on rails across several doorways in one visit.
Supplying polar-grade strips for a freezer doorway where standard PVC stiffens and cracks in the cold.
Replacing scratched, cloudy strips on a forklift route so drivers and pedestrians can see each other clearly.

Traffic route rules that apply in Barking

Strip curtains sit on workplace traffic routes, so in England the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 apply: traffic routes must be organised so pedestrians and vehicles can move safely (regulation 17) and kept in good repair (regulation 5). That is why clear strips, good visibility and prompt replacement of scratched or missing strips matter.

How the work is organised

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

PVC strip curtains in Barking: your questions

Which strip curtain grade suits our Barking premises?

Standard clear PVC suits most ambient doorways. Polar grade is needed for chillers and freezers, ribbed strips for heavy forklift routes, and tinted grades for insect control or welding areas. We recommend a grade after seeing the opening.

How often should strip curtains in Barking be replaced?

It depends on traffic. Pedestrian doorways can go years between changes; busy forklift routes need new strips sooner. Replace any strip that is torn, cloudy or badly scratched so visibility stays good.

How quickly can strip curtains be fitted in Barking?

Once strips are cut to length, fitting usually takes an hour or two per doorway, so several openings can often be completed in one visit with very little disruption to your operations.
