Installation and use
ZipDoor can be installed by one person in under a minute, saving time and money on site with its ease of installation but also by avoiding time-consuming clean-ups and the associated costs at the end of a job.
Ideal for residential and commercial projects as it comes in two sizes:
- standard doors up to 7ft x 3ft (2134mm x 914mm) and
- commercial doors up to 8ft x 4ft (2438mm x 1219mm)
- commercial ZipDoor is also flame retardant [1]
ZipDoor’s two pre-installed zips are glued on for maximum tensile strength, outperforming sewn-in alternatives which perforate the sheeting when the zip is pulled.
The zips also extend to the floor, eliminating the trip hazard of a hatch-style door.
- when open, the door flap rolls up and stows easily in the provided flap hooks
Attaching the ZipDoor to the doorframe is ZipWall’s exclusive double-sided tape.
- tape uses a paper carrier, so it tears easily, no scissors or knife needed
- side applied to the doorframe performs like painter’s tape
The other side features an aggressive adhesive to secure the plastic sheeting.
- despite its strength, the adhesive gives the user up to an hour to reposition the doorway before fully bonding
Protec, a leading supplier of temporary protection materials to the construction industry, will introduce ZipDoor to the UK market during the Professional Builder Toolfair exhibition in Manchester.
