PVC strip curtains in Stretford

Quick answer

Strip curtains are the simplest way to part-close a busy opening in Stretford (M32). Hook-on strips make wear easy to deal with, ribbed strips cope with forklifts, and polar grades keep working in freezers.

Options that matter on site

Hook-on strips. Worn strips lift off and new ones hook on in seconds.
Ribbed strips. Ribs protect the clear face of each strip from scratches on busy vehicle routes.
Draught control. A curtain across the opening holds back draughts and helps keep temperatures steady.
Sliding rails. Sliding or swing-away rails move the curtain clear for oversized loads.
Traffic passes freely. People, trolleys and forklifts push straight through the overlapping strips.

Jobs we can carry out

Supplying replacement strips cut to length for existing hook-on rails across several doorways in one visit.
Hanging a polar-grade strip curtain behind a cold store door to reduce the cold air lost during loading.
Adding a swing-away rail so a strip curtain can be moved clear for long or oversized loads.

Traffic route rules that apply in Stretford

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.

Access, phasing and timing

Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

PVC strip curtains in Stretford: your questions

Can you supply replacement strips for our existing curtains in Stretford?

Yes. We supply replacement strips cut to the right length for your existing rail, matched to the grade and width already fitted, and can fit them or leave them for your team.

Which strip curtain grade suits our Stretford 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 Stretford 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.
