PVC strip curtains in Wakefield

The short version

PVC strip curtains for warehouse doorways, loading bays, cold stores and workshops in Wakefield. We measure the opening, choose the right strip grade and overlap for your traffic, then fit the rail and curtain with little disruption.

Town: Wakefield
Postcode district: WF1
Area: West Yorkshire
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Sliding rails. Sliding or swing-away rails move the curtain clear for oversized loads.
Draught control. Strips cut the loss of heated or chilled air through busy openings.
Polar grade. Freezer-grade strips stay soft and pliable instead of stiffening in the cold.
No power. No motors, sensors or controls, so almost nothing to go wrong.
Hook-on strips. Worn strips lift off and new ones hook on in seconds.

Typical scopes of work

Adding a swing-away rail so a strip curtain can be moved clear for long or oversized loads.
Fitting anti-insect strips to the rear door of a bakery or food unit to deter flying insects.
Replacing scratched, cloudy strips on a forklift route so drivers and pedestrians can see each other clearly.

Traffic route rules that apply in Wakefield

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.

Planning the work around your site

Your questions about PVC strip curtains

How quickly can strip curtains be fitted in Wakefield?

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.

Which strip curtain grade suits our Wakefield 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.

Is a strip curtain or a high-speed door better for our Wakefield site?

A strip curtain costs far less and suits most openings. A high-speed door seals better, keeps a clear view and suits very busy or temperature-critical openings. We price both where either could work.
