Close the Opening, Keep Traffic Moving
A low-cost way to separate areas without slowing people or forklifts down.
- Save energyCut heating, cooling and refrigeration loss through open doors and dock openings.
- Safer doorwaysClear PVC lets drivers and pedestrians see each other through the opening.
- Control noiseHelp isolate noisy machines and process areas from the rest of the plant.
- Block dust and pestsKeep out drafts, dust, fumes, insects and birds.
- Safe, tight sealRounded edges will not cut, and overlapping curved strips seal against each other.
- Easy to maintainReplace single strips as they wear instead of the whole curtain.
Choose the Right PVC
Pick the strip material to suit the temperature, traffic and job.
| PVC type | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard clear | General doorways, docks, dust and noise control | About -23 °C to 66 °C |
| Standard ribbed | High-traffic doors where forklifts and carts rub the strips | Raised ribs take the wear so the strips stay clearer longer |
| Anti-static | Electronics, clean areas and places where static is a concern | Standard temperature range |
| Low-temp (USDA) | Coolers, freezers and food plants | About -40 °C to 66 °C; stays flexible in the cold |
| Low-temp ribbed | Busy cooler and freezer doors | Low-temp PVC with wear ribs |
| Low-temp reinforced | Large or heavy-use cold openings | Low-temp PVC with added strength |
| Coloured: orange or black opaque | Hiding areas from view, marking openings, light control | Orange is high-visibility; black blocks the view |
| Welding: amber or green | Welding screens and booths | Tinted to filter welding glare and protect passers-by |

Strip Curtain Questions
Which PVC should I use for a cooler or freezer?
Use low-temp (USDA) PVC. It stays flexible down to about -40 °C, while standard PVC is rated to about -23 °C. For busy cold doors, low-temp ribbed or reinforced strips add wear resistance.
How much strip overlap do I need?
50% overlap suits most interior doorways. 100% (full) overlap gives a tighter seal for exterior doors, coolers, freezers and windy openings.
How do I measure for a strip curtain?
Measure the opening width and height, and note whether the hardware will mount on the wall above the opening or under the header. Send us the measurements and a photo and we will confirm the size and mount.
Can forklifts drive through strip curtains?
Yes. Strip curtains are made for traffic doors and loading docks. Ribbed PVC and wider strips hold up better to forklift traffic, and a sliding track lets you move the whole curtain aside for wide loads.
Can I replace damaged strips?
Yes. Individual strips can be replaced without changing the whole curtain. We supply replacement strips, pre-cut strips and PVC rolls.
Do you install strip curtains?
Yes. JB Equipment installs strip curtains and full strip enclosures across the GTA and Southern Ontario, and ships curtains and replacement strips across Canada.
