Heavy Duty Door Pelmet Strip Curtains with Swivel Hinge - R1 Face Fit
When managing large vehicle entrances, exits, or bays, especially in environments exposed to harsh weather, maintaining a protected and comfortable workspace is essential. Our heavy-duty door pelmet strip curtains with swivel hinge R1 face fit offer an effective solution, providing durability, weather resistance, and ease of installation.
Robust Design for Maximum Durability
The robust construction of these door pelmet strip curtains makes them an ideal choice for industrial settings. The swivel hinge curtain rails are uniquely designed by Redwood, recognised as one of the toughest curtain rail systems in the UK. This heavy-duty design significantly reduces the risk of damage, resulting in fewer repairs and lower maintenance costs over the curtain's lifespan. The rails are custom-made to fit any span, ensuring that every installation is tailored to your specific needs. However, it's important to note that these rails are not self-supporting and must be installed on a structurally secure surface.
Versatile Fitting Options
These curtain rails offer versatile installation options, whether you prefer face fitting or soffit fitting. The R1 face fit brackets are ideal for securing the rails directly to the surface, providing a sturdy and reliable mounting option. The PVC strips are pre-punched with hanging holes, aligning perfectly with the rail setup, making installation straightforward. The strips are securely bolted into the swivel hinges using the M8 nuts and bolts provided, ensuring a strong and reliable hold. While the nuts and bolts for attaching the PVC strips are included, fixings for mounting the rails to your surface must be supplied by the installer.
High-Quality Clear PVC Strips
The PVC strips used in these curtains are crafted from standard clear PVC, a material renowned for its clarity, flexibility, and durability. This PVC allows light to pass through with minimal distortion, ensuring visibility while effectively screening workspaces or doorways. The strips are also highly flexible and offer excellent impact resistance, making them suitable for high-traffic areas. Additionally, the PVC contains anti-UV filters, which help protect against the damaging effects of sunlight, prolonging the life of the curtains. The strips are supplied in stock lengths and can be easily trimmed to fit bespoke sizes.
Weather Protection and Energy Efficiency
These door pelmet strip curtains provide more than just physical protection; they also offer significant benefits in terms of weather resistance and energy efficiency. By reducing the vertical height of large vehicle entrances and exits, the curtains create an additional barrier against the elements, keeping work areas drier and more comfortable. This added protection not only enhances the working environment for employees but also helps to keep goods safe from exposure to weather conditions. Moreover, the curtains help to maintain internal temperatures, reducing heat loss and contributing to energy savings.
Practical Tips for Installation
Upon receipt, the PVC strips may exhibit a slight curl due to being rolled for storage. This is a common occurrence and can be resolved by allowing the strips to unroll and flatten out overnight before installation. In colder conditions, the curl may take longer to relax, but this process can be sped up by applying gentle heat or reverse rolling the strips. Once installed, the strips will hang smoothly, providing an effective barrier.
Longevity and Maintenance
As with all PVC strip curtains, the longevity of this product depends on its usage and environment. PVC strips are considered consumable items, and their lifespan will vary based on the amount of traffic and the conditions in which they are used. For optimal durability, it is recommended to install the curtains internally behind doors or openings that offer some degree of shelter. When exposed to the elements without protection, the PVC may deteriorate more quickly, especially in severe weather conditions. Regular inspections and timely replacements will ensure that the curtains continue to provide effective protection.
Conclusion
Our heavy-duty door pelmet strip curtains with swivel hinge R1 face fit are an excellent choice for any industrial setting where weather protection, durability, and ease of installation are priorities. With a robust design, high-quality materials, and versatile fitting options, these curtains offer a reliable and cost-effective solution for managing large vehicle entrances and exits. Whether you're looking to protect your workspace from the elements or create a more comfortable environment for your employees, these strip curtains are a practical and valuable investment.

Longevity: PVC strip is considered a consumable product. How fast it’s consumed is beyond any manufacturer’s or supplier’s control. Its lifespan will be dictated by where it’s used, what type of traffic might move through it and how carefully (or aggressively) such traffic does so. To help maximise its working life, we always recommend that PVC curtains are fitted internally behind doors or openings that can provide a degree of shelter. If they’re fitted outside of a doorway or building, fully exposed to the elements all day and night, they can deteriorate and/or lose clarity more quickly. The rate of this will depend entirely on the severity of the local weather. We have some customers who replace their PVC annually… others who’ve had the same for many, many years.
NOTE: All dimensions nominal. Subject to original manufacturer’s standard tolerances.
