Stand Off Strip Curtain

overhead-door-strip-curtains

OVERVIEW

Strip Curtains for Overhead Doors are ideal for sealing up a roll-up door. The stand off strip door hardware is located on both sides of the roll up drum and are field adjustable inward and outward for a perfect fit. The cross member then spans the width of the opening forming a 3 sided enclosure. You can also attach a 20mil PVC clear curtain to the top of the opening to make it a complete enclosure.

Strips Come In Several Different Materials

Adjustable Hardware

Adjust the strips inward and outward away from the steel drum so that there is a perfect fit. The bracket offers projections from the wall of 12", 18", and 24" depending on the model you choose.

PVC Strip Widths

Strips come in several different widths and thicknesses depending on the height of your opening and the type of traffic that will pass through it. The strip thickness is an important part of picking a strip for your PVC strip door so
that entry and exit is quick and easy.

Measuring

Step 1 – Track to Track Distance (W)

  • Measure the distance from outside to outside of roller track that the door rolls in on the vertical wall.

Step 2 – Projection Distance (P)

  • Measure the distance from the wall to that the strip curtain brackets wont get in the way of the overhead door tracks.

Step 3 – The Height of the Opening (H)

  • Measure the distance of the actual opening from the floor to the bottom of the drum.

Strip Widths

PVC Strip Size Has 2 Aspects

  • Strip Width
  • and Thickness

How We Choose The Correct Strip Width

By using the simple chart shown below you can choose the appropriate
width of strip. For instance, if you have a very tall opening that you are
trying to cover and the strip width is too narrow it will curl at the bottom.
The taller the opening the wider the strip must be.

As an example if you have a 14’ high opening and it will be located indoors
then ideal strip as shown in the chart below would be a 12” wide strip.

How We Choose Strip Thickness

When choosing a strip thickness you should consider what will be traveling
through the strips.

  • .060"- Ideal for people only traffic such as walk-in coolers - Indoors
  • .080" - Ideal for heavy foot traffic and light industrial traffic - Indoors
  • .120" - Ideal for moderate industrial traffic - Indoors and Outdoors
  • .160" - Ideal for heavy industrial traffic for strong winds - Indoors and Outdoors

Things to Consider

  • Not all strip widths have all thicknesses available
  • For heavier traffic doors it is best to choose a Ribbed material over a Smooth material.
  • 12" and 16" strips with 100% overlap are not ideal for foot traffic due to the force required to walk through them
Strip Overlap

How We Choose The Correct Strip Overlap

We first consider the type and volume of traffic.

  • Personnel – Doors for people-only access should utilize small sized strips
    with less overlap. Consider 6″ or 8″ material with 33% to 67% overlap. Use
    4″ material only on very small openings because smaller strips have less wind
    resistance and aren’t ideal for heavy forklift traffic.
  • Pallet Trucks – This indicates the door will get heavier traffic including
    material pallets, typically accompanied by a person. In this scenario, 6″
    material with 67% overlap, or 8″ with 25% or 50% overlap is the best option.
  • Forklift Traffic – Forklift traffic indicates strip doors will face more abuse.
    Consequently, large PVC vinyl strip sizes are the best bet. Also consider the load
    the forklift will carry as the strips will drag over the load. If the load is light, very
    large strips may drag it off the forklift. Consider 12″ material with 50% to 100%
    overlap or 16″ material if used windy areas outside.

Chart Of Overlaps

Things to Consider

  • User 67% or higher overlap for outdoor strips along with 12" to 16" wide strips

Testimonials

"AKON had the quality that was lacking with our previous industrial curtain supplier. We run a fortune 500 company that relies on zero downtime. The AKON industrial curtain system just lasts longer and is made of better materials. I informed purchasing that if its not from AKON, then we don't want it!" - Fred Dixon 

"The AKON wash bay curtains look great! No one was as helpful or as knowledgeable as your staff and that was a big deciding factor for us. When the wash bay curtains arrived the installation was flawless. We now have a wash bay curtain that we can be proud of and that will last for many years." - Jackie McGarb

"THE BEST!!! Hands Down!!. The curtains have stronger grommets and the vinyl is the best quality that we have seen. The service is also top notch and we have answers to our questions instantly. You can tell this is a well run company and they have taken care of all the projects that we have thrown at them." - Mike Richards
