A strip door is a low cost environmental barrier that is constructed of clear
PVC strips that attach to a bracket that mounts above or within an opening.
The strips overlap, creating a “wall” that separates one area from
another.
EconoMax Strip Door quality begins with extrusion of our own PVC strip stock.
With over one-million dollars invested in state-of-the-art extrusion technology,
we can maintain high quality and control costs in every aspect of strip door
production. At Chase Doors, you get faster turnaround, guaranteed quality…and
you pay less because we do it all!
Interior traffic doors, partitions, walk-in
coolers /freezers, clean rooms, loading docks, welding booths, car wash entry/exits,
spray booths and conveyor openings.
Personnel – Strip Doors with people traffic should utilize smaller size strips
with less overlap. Consider using 6” or 8” material with 33% to
67% overlap. Only use 4” material on very small openings with personnel
only traffic. Keep in mind that smaller strips give less wind resistance, and
will not hold up as well under heavy fork lift traffic.
Pallet Jacks – Manual or motorized pallet jacks normally
indicate that the door will get heavier traffic and larger material volume.
Pallet jacks also typically have a person to guide or push. If an opening
has heavy pallet and personnel traffic, consider 6” material with 67%
overlap, or 8” with
25% or 50% overlap.
Fork Lifts – Fork lift traffic normally indicates
heavy traffic with more abuse. Larger strip sizes should be considered with
fork lift traffic. Also consider the type of load the fork lift is carrying
as the strips will drag over the load. If the load is light, the larger strips
may tend to drag product off of the load. Consider 8” material with
50% to 100% overlap or 12” material
with 25% or 50% overlap.
Opening Size to Load Ratio – If the opening is small in relation to the size
of the load, you may want to consider smaller strips with less overlap as the
strips are more prone to dragging over the load. For example, consider 8” material
versus 12” material on a 96” high opening with an 84” high
load.
Loc-Rib™ – Our standard and FDA grade PVC strips can be fabricated
with “locking” ribs to seal against air flow in cooler or freezer
temperatures. Ribs also preserve strip clarity by absorbing abrasions. Available
in 8, 12 and 16 inch strips for door sizes up to 25 feet tall.
Colorview™ – We add windows to attractive opaque colored strip doors by
RF welding clear sections into the center of the strips. Available in black
in 4” strip widths and in blue, green, brown and black.
Safety Orange – Call attention to door edges with 8, 12, or 16 inch semi-transparent
orange strips.
Anti-Static – Clear strip formulated to dissipate
static electricity harmlessly away from personnel or sensitive equipment.
Available in 8 or 12 inch strips widths.
Amberweld – Specially formulated to screen out UV and near UV rays from welding
and brazing flash. Available in 8 and 12 inch strip widths.
Standard – Our clear PVC strips are designed for use in most walk-in coolers
or in doorways at ambient temperatures with personnel, cart, lift truck or
vehicular traffic. Available strip widths are 4, 6, 8, 12, 16 and 48 inches.
DA Low Temp – Clear PVC formulated to remain pliable in food service freezer
temperatures; also for use in areas where FDA approved material is required.
Available in 4, 6, 8, and 12 inch strip widths. Nylon reinforced strips are
also available in widths of 6, 8, and 12 inches for use in freezers subjected
to heavy personnel, hand truck or fork lift traffic.
EconoTrack Mounting Bracket The Durable, versatile EconoTrack Bracket can be
used for both surface and in-jamb mounting on small or very large openings.
EconoTrack’s formed steel face plate holds strips firmly while allowing
flex without breaking. These rugged brackets are constructed with 14 gauge
galvanized steel with 1/4” studs. Face plates are formed in 12” sections
for easy strip replacement. The EconoTrack Mounting Bracket is the most popular
design in the industry. Its simple strip replacement feature allows the customer
to replace individual strips cut-to-size from the factory, or cut and punched
in the field.
J-Hook Compatible Mounting Bracket – In the unique
J-Hook system, J-Hook hangers – each
with a strip attached – are hung from a 2-part extruded aluminum bracket.
Hangers are easily lifted out to replace strips. A continuous welded bond between
each strip and its J-Hook insures long life. Installation is simple: Just screw
the aluminum mounting hardware flush to the wall, or to brackets in the door
jamb, or into any other special mounting hardware. Then hang the J-hook mounted
strips into place and tighten the clamping bolts. Strips will hang straight
and level with the correct overlap.
Overhead/Roll-Up Door Bracket – Brackets extend out and around the door assembly
so strips can be mounted inside the protection from weather or vandalism when
the door is closed.
Gate Hinge – Allows the strip door to be swung out of the opening when not
required. A retractable bolt locks the hinge in place.
Trolley Mount – The strip door can be parted in the center or rolled to one
side using this heavy duty roller/track assembly.
