ZIPWALL Heavy-Duty Zipper for Dust Barriers

So easy to put up and works perfect.

we had the builders in and didn't want the dust as previous times I got fed up of clearing the dust only to find the dust was back an hour later Aarrr. So I thought I would give these ago.... perfect, kept all the dust out and most of the cold. we bought our own polyethene from else were as it was cheaper but the zips are very sturdy,strong .just make sure you stick the zips on right the first time as the adhesive is strong and don't think you would be able to take off again without destroying you polyethene,but the instruction are very clear and easy to follow.

If you are going to do a home renovation project with dust control barrier(s), and you think you may want to pass through that barrier, then you should just buy this product! The contractor for my home project didn't come equipped with any type of pass-through solution (just plastic and blue painters tape). So I ended up buying these zippers myself. I'm really glad I did, and so were my wife and kids! Much more convenient than having to walk around the work area. I decided to get the red "heavy duty" version zippers since there were a couple reviews complaining about the adhesive failing on the standard (black) version. Absolutely no issue with the red zippers staying attached throughout a 12-week project, with the zipper being used multiple times a day. I used the two zippers for 2 different locations (1 zipper each location); rather than on 1 roll-up door. So I didn't make use of the hooks, and can't comment on those. The kit includes a special cutter to cut the plastic barrier after you've adhered the zipper. The cutter seems like a cheap piece of plastic, but actually works really well. It has 2 blades, about a half inch apart. It cuts parallel slits at the zipper opening, then you tear off the middle (half inch) strip of plastic barrier. This really helps keep the plastic from getting caught in the zipper. For one opening, my contractor didn't listen to me, and just cut the barrier with a utility knife (one slit). The plastic instantly got jammed in the zipper on the first use. I was able to trim back the plastic using scissors, so the edge of the plastic was away from the zipper. But believe me, just use the included cutter to begin with. It really works! All home remodeling contractors should make this product part of their standard kit. It just makes the project more convenient for everyone, and it would impress the customers.

I was really impressed with how well these zipper assemblies worked! Simple to install, good adhesion to plastic barrier, operated well, and, most importantly, kept the dust contained! Highly recommended.

Used this on 6mil poly to keep dust out during a renovation. Excellent quality, sticky adhesive that will last. It wasn’t clear when I bought this, but it’s intended to use two zippers for a single door per the instructions. I wound up using only one per door so that I could have a second entrance and they work well in that scenario as well. The cutting tool that comes with it was very handy because it cuts a strip out that is perfectly sized. These are a little pricy, but good quality.
