Zipper Door

[Time's Ran Out]

When I work in a bathroom I often hang (nail) a dust sheet to the door architrave to 1) stop the dust going out the room and 2) to protect the inside of the door from damage.
Well today I was given a Zipper Door which is essentially a clear plastic sheet with a tent like zip opening which is masking tape held to the wall or frame.
I must have expressed enthusiasm of the highest order for after speaking to the Genesis representatives they provided me with a test package which I was truly appreciated with.
Had the 'Hog Roast' and lemonade not been via the courtesy of CTD Newcastle trade afternoon I would have bought them a cup of coffee!
I haven't a clue how much it will cost (as price for such innovation is irrelevant) but to show care for a clients property must be brownie points for a satisfied customer.
Now all that remains is for a link up with a masking tape supplier:smilewinkgrin:

About £16.50 with vat​

It's tough plastic with a strong zip and reusable so looks good value.

Well worth the money to stop dust creeping out....

Got about 8 jobs out of it and well into my 2nd Zipper Door now!
First couple of jobs I used gaffa tape and it stuck to both surfaces too well, now just use masking tape. The response from customers and project managers is very positive and now I've started to fit it the right way up it's much easier to get through!
It does however have a lifespan as the stitching to the zip will split after more than a few uses and although still usable, needs replacing to maintain a professional look.
Great when using an angle grinder or working in an En Suite and always worth having in the van along with other dust sheets and covers.

Thats it Dave - Genisis do them - not a sample ,actually paid for the 2nd one after receiving the 1st at a trade day and expressing an interest.

every product added to a tiling job makes the tiler less money and the prouducers of the unesaary more soon be down to less than 20% for us :mad2:

They had them for sale in CTD last time I was up.

Don't quite follow the jist of your post! Do you think that £2 per job (when required) is money wasted?

 

[Dan]

Just bumping this because you all could do with one or two maybe?

 

[Dave]

I forgot all about these.

 

[Dan]

I don't see them in pictures so I assume everybody has!

 

[White Room]

I had one found it a pain in the butt, you need gaffa tape to hold up then end up stripping the paint off the doorway.

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Just bought one today - only £10 from CTD. Clients think they are great and with the roll and scroll on the carpet, it is business.

 

[Dan]

Roll and scroll?

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Roll and stroll - must have been writing about it!
