SLIDING (Rolling) STRIP DOORS
For strip door applications requiring intermittent access to a completely open door or passageway, Rotary's sliding strip doors are the answer. The sliding strip door features roller track hardware that allows the strip door to be moved in and out of the door opening in just seconds. Installation requires an equal amount of clearance at the width of the opening to allow the strip door to slide to one side or the other.
If space does not permit opening to one side, a bi-part hardware system allows one part of the door to move to left side of the door, while another section moves to the right side. The bi-part system will require wall area on each side of the door, equal to the size of the left or right portion of each strip door.

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. |
|
WELD STRIP MATERIAL |
The weld strip material is designed for doors enclosing areas where welding is being performed. It's tinted color helps reduce the incidental effects of bright, ultra violet light from welding arcs. Sparks fly off the thick material, yet it is transparent enough that supervisors and others can view welding area. |
|
USDA STRIP MATERIAL |
USDA Vinyl strip is a material that meets federal government requirements for incidental contact with meat, poultry and diry products. It is available in reinforced vinyl strips which function at temperatures as low as -30 degrees F. |
|
