Where Are PVC Strip Curtains Installed?
PVC strip curtains are suitable for doorways and openings where businesses need convenient access while limiting the movement of air, dust and other contaminants between areas.
Common applications include:
- Cold rooms and freezers: Help reduce the exchange of warm and cold air when personnel move through doorways.
- Food processing facilities: Provide a flexible doorway barrier in suitable production and handling areas.
- Warehouses and distribution centres: Help separate working areas while allowing staff and equipment to pass through.
- Factories and workshops: Help separate production zones and reduce the movement of dust between suitable work areas.
- Commercial kitchens: Provide flexible separation between selected working areas.
- Loading bays and industrial doorways: Allow frequent movement of people and goods without requiring a conventional solid door to be opened and closed each time.
The appropriate PVC curtain specification depends on the temperature, traffic, doorway dimensions and operating conditions.
Our PVC Strip Curtain Installation Process
A suitable installation begins with understanding how the doorway is used and selecting a mounting arrangement that fits the opening.
1. Site Assessment and Doorway Measurements
The doorway width, height, mounting surface and available clearance should be checked before installation. For cold rooms and freezers, the operating temperature and frequency of access should also be considered.
Accurate measurements help determine the number of strips required, the mounting rail arrangement and the amount of overlap.
2. Selecting the Right PVC Strip Thickness
PVC strip thickness should be selected according to the application and traffic level.
For example, a doorway used mainly by pedestrians may require a different specification from an opening regularly used by forklifts or loaded trolleys.
The choice should consider flexibility, impact resistance, ease of passage and the operating environment. Where low-temperature conditions apply, the PVC material must be suitable for the intended temperature range.
3. Mounting Rail and Hardware Installation

The mounting system must be suitable for the doorway structure and the weight of the curtain assembly. Rails, brackets, clamp plates and fasteners should be selected to provide secure support and allow the strips to be replaced when necessary.
Correct mounting helps the curtain hang properly and supports easier maintenance.
4. Hanging and Aligning the PVC Strips
The strips are positioned and overlapped according to the selected design. Suitable overlap helps reduce gaps while allowing convenient passage through the opening.
The strips should hang freely without unnecessary obstruction from the floor, equipment or nearby structures.
5. Inspection and Final Adjustments
After installation, the curtain should be checked for alignment, secure mounting, adequate overlap and ease of passage. The finished arrangement should suit the movement of personnel, goods and equipment through the doorway.
PVC Strip Curtain Replacement and Maintenance
Damaged, scratched, distorted or missing strips can reduce the effectiveness and appearance of an existing curtain. Regular inspection helps identify when individual strips or mounting components need attention.
Replacement may be appropriate when:
- PVC strips are torn, badly scratched or no longer hang correctly.
- Sections of the curtain are missing.
- Mounting hardware is damaged or loose.
- The existing curtain no longer suits the doorway’s traffic or operating conditions.
- A business needs to change the curtain arrangement following changes to its operations.
Replacing individual strips may be sufficient in some cases, while other installations may benefit from a complete curtain replacement.
For businesses planning a new installation or refurbishment, we can help assess the doorway requirements and identify suitable products.
Benefits of Professional PVC Strip Curtain Installation
Correct installation can help a business get better practical performance from its PVC strip curtain system.
Key benefits include:
- Reduced air exchange: Proper strip overlap helps limit the movement of air through doorways.
- Temperature management: Suitable curtains can help reduce warm-air entry into refrigerated areas, although they do not replace proper refrigeration or insulation.
- Convenient access: Flexible strips allow people and goods to pass through without operating a conventional hinged door.
- Dust separation: Curtains can help reduce the movement of dust between suitable work areas.
- Replaceable components: Individual strips can often be replaced without removing the entire curtain assembly.
- Improved workflow: Properly planned openings can support frequent movement between work areas.
Actual performance depends on the curtain specification, installation quality, doorway traffic and environmental conditions.
How Much Does PVC Strip Curtain Installation Cost in Kenya?
The cost of PVC strip curtain installation depends on the doorway dimensions, PVC strip thickness, required overlap, mounting hardware, site conditions and installation requirements.
A large warehouse opening may require a different arrangement from a small cold-room entrance. Replacement work may also cost less or more than a new installation, depending on whether the existing mounting rail can be reused.
