Transparent strip doors
are used in areas where a great amount of traffic or continual entering/exiting
through a large doorway opening creates rapid energy loss, invites in foreign
matter or causes time-consuming opening and closing of doors. Rotary's
PVC Strip Doors are a series of clear flexible-vinyl
strips permanently placed in doorways or passage's to create a barrier with
a more flexible usage. PVC Strip doors
permit unrestricted movement between areas while aiding in speedy, efficient
passage, climate control and noise reduction. They also act as a deterrent
for entry of unwanted elements such as dirt, dust, insects, fumes, noise,
etc.
Rotary STRIP DOORS are custom designed according
to intended use, whether it be an interior personnel door or a large exterior
freight door. Depending on the application, the STRIP
DOOR material is available in different strip widths and
strip vinyl thickness. A wide variety
of specialty strip materials are also available for the use you need.

Key to Recommended sizes of Strip Door ApplicationsRotary Products recomends certain types of pvc strip material for certain applications. The height and use of a strip door makes all the difference when selecting your overlap type, your material thickness, and your material width.

STRIP DOOR MATERIAL SELECTION CHART
|
STANDARD STRIP MATERIAL |
The standard strip door material is a clear, vinyl material available in strip widths of 6", 8", 12" and 16". The material selected for Rotary Products strip doors has outstanding clarity and stabilizers added to the raw vinyl compound that helps reduce fading and yellowing due to ultra violent light. The standard strip material is easily cleaned by using water and household detergent. |
|
RIBBED STRIP MATERIAL |
The ribbed strip door material has a unique, triangular shaped ribbing which helps prevent scratching of the strip material surface due to heavy use from truck and cargo traffic. An added benefit is that the ribs on both sides of the material add to energy savings effectiveness by creating small pockets of air space as insulation. Another benefit of the ribbed material is that the ribs reduce the contact between the surfaces of the strips creating less static electricity. |
