Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best PVC curtain for a roller shutter door?

Heavy Duty Clear on a Hook-On rail is the most common choice — it fits inside the door frame and hangs in front of the shutter. For large openings over 3m wide, a Swivel Hinge or Twin Track rail gives better strip control.

Will workshop curtains reduce heating costs?

Yes — PVC strip curtains significantly reduce heat loss through open doorways. Most businesses see noticeable heating bill reductions within the first winter season.

Can I fit workshop curtains myself?

Yes — all our kits come with full fitting instructions. Most single-door installations take 20–40 minutes with a drill and basic hardware.

Flame Retardant Workshop Curtains 

Flame retardant workshop curtains are an essential safety feature in workshops where fire hazards may be present. These curtains are designed to resist or slow down the spread of flames in case of a fire, providing valuable time for people to evacuate and for fire suppression systems to be activated.

Here are some key points about flame retardant workshop curtains:

  1. Temperature Control: PVC curtains can help improve internal temperatures by acting as a barrier to prevent the transfer of heat or cold air. This can be particularly useful in workshops where temperature regulation is essential for the comfort of employees or to protect sensitive materials and equipment.
  2. Dust and Debris Prevention: In industrial settings, workshops are often exposed to dust, debris, and contaminants. PVC curtains can act as a barrier to prevent these particles from entering designated areas, thus helping to maintain a cleaner and safer working environment.
  3. Noise Reduction: Workshops can be noisy places, with machinery and equipment creating loud sounds. PVC curtains can help reduce noise pollution by providing some sound insulation, making the working environment more comfortable and potentially improving productivity.
  4. Safety and Visibility: Transparent PVC curtains allow visibility between different areas of the workshop, enhancing safety by enabling employees to see potential hazards or obstacles on the other side of the curtain.
  5. Easy Access: PVC curtains are typically designed to be easy to open and close, allowing for smooth traffic flow and convenient access for employees and equipment.
