Heavy Duty Loading Bay Strip Curtains (Swivel Hinge) - R3 Behind Fit
Maintaining an efficient and protected loading bay is essential for any industrial operation. The Heavy Duty Loading Bay Strip Curtains with R3 Behind Fit Swivel Hinge offer a robust solution for environments where delivery vehicles and forklifts frequently access goods in and out areas. These curtains not only help preserve internal temperatures but also provide an effective barrier against the weather, pests, and airborne debris.
Durable Swivel Hinge Rail System
At the heart of this strip curtain system is the swivel hinge rail, a unique feature by Redwood that stands as one of the UK’s most durable curtain rail systems. Specifically designed for heavy-duty use, these galvanised steel rails are built to withstand the rigorous demands of industrial environments. The robust design significantly reduces the risk of damage, which means fewer repairs and lower overall maintenance costs throughout the curtain's lifespan. Each rail is custom-made to match your specific span, arriving fully assembled and ready for easy installation.
Efficient R3 Behind Fit Installation
The R3 Behind Fit option allows the curtain rail to be mounted with a 90° stand-off from the fitting surface. This installation method is particularly useful in scenarios where the curtain needs to be positioned behind a doorway or a structural beam, providing added flexibility in different industrial layouts. The PVC strips, pre-punched with hanging holes that align with the rail setup, are then securely bolted into the swivel hinges using the provided M8 nuts and bolts, ensuring a stable and secure installation.
High-Quality PVC Strips for Visibility and Protection
The PVC strips used in these curtains are 400mm wide and 4mm thick, offering excellent durability and impact resistance. The clear PVC material ensures outstanding visibility, allowing light to pass through without significant distortion. This clarity is crucial in busy loading areas, where visibility is essential for safety. Additionally, the strips are flexible, allowing for easy passage of vehicles and personnel while maintaining their effectiveness as a protective barrier.
Energy Efficiency and Environmental Control
Installing these heavy-duty strip curtains can lead to significant energy savings by helping to maintain consistent internal temperatures. By reducing the loss of heated or cooled air, these curtains contribute to lower energy bills. Additionally, they act as a barrier against dust, debris, and pests, ensuring that your loading bay remains clean and secure. This added level of environmental control is crucial for maintaining a safe and efficient workplace.
Built to Last with Quality Materials
The R3 Behind Fit strip curtains are constructed from high-grade materials to ensure longevity. The galvanised steel used in the swivel hinges and rails is resistant to corrosion, while the PVC strips are treated with anti-UV filters to protect against sunlight, enhancing their durability. All materials comply with REACH regulations and are DOP-free, ensuring the highest standards of safety and environmental protection.
Customisation and Longevity
Recognising that every industrial environment has unique requirements, these strip curtains can be customised to fit specific dimensions and configurations. Whether you need a particular rail length or different strip sizes, Redwood can tailor the product to meet your needs. The curtains are also designed for easy maintenance, with the PVC strips easily replaceable when necessary.
To maximise the lifespan of your strip curtains, it’s advisable to install them internally, behind doors or openings that provide some degree of shelter. When exposed to harsh weather conditions, the PVC may deteriorate more quickly, but with appropriate installation and care, these curtains can provide years of reliable service.
In summary, the Heavy Duty Loading Bay Strip Curtains with R3 Behind Fit Swivel Hinge offer a durable, energy-efficient, and customisable solution for any industrial setting. With their robust construction and high-quality materials, these curtains are an excellent investment for businesses looking to protect their premises and maintain efficient operations.

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.
