About this product

Walking in and out through a plastic dust wall

When you hang plastic sheeting to keep dust in a work room, you still need a way in and out. The Homax CinchTite Tarp Zipper Door is a self-adhesive zipper you stick to the sheet, and once you open the plastic along it, the wall has a door that zips shut.

It holds on tarps as well as plastic sheeting and keeps the work area enclosed while still letting you step through. That matters on jobs like sanding drywall or scraping an old ceiling, where you want the dust to stay on one side. The zipper is blue, so you can find it quickly on clear plastic.

Before you start

A zipper door keeps dust inside the work area, but it does not make old material safe to disturb. Have an older ceiling tested for asbestos and paint from before 1978 tested for lead before you scrape or sand.
