Avid gardener Andrew J. Chorzempa Jr., of Plantsville, CT, constructed a greenhouse using the ZipWall® Barrier System. Andrew built the greenhouse as an alternative to purchasing multiple costly greenhouses. ZipWall® allows a greenhouse to be built in minutes and conforms to the size and shape of the room you have available.

Andrew installs the greenhouse during cold weather in March, in order to begin seeding under lights. Most seedlings take 6 to 8 weeks before they can be planted outdoors, so the indoor greenhouse allows them to be ready for planting in May.

A greenhouse is important to facilitate Andrew’s landscaping because it reduces heating costs, and provides insulation so that the Marigolds, Petunias, Impatiens, Salvia, Coleus, Flowering Tobacco, Dahlias, Black Eyed Susan's, Coneflowers, Daisy’s, and other plants can grow indoors in Connecticut during the winter months.

The ZipWall® Barrier System installs in minutes to create a professional greenhouse, and allows 120 flats of annuals and perennials to germinate indoors.
Foam Rail Tight Seal™ Accessories are used to ensure that the barrier is completely sealed for adequate insulation. Also, Heavy Duty Zippers are installed to create a doorway that allows easy access to the flats throughout the 8 week period.
Note: The greenhouse seen here is a small version of the complete greenhouse design that houses 120 flats.

When a glass sign shattered over the entrance to an office building, ZipWall® Spring Loaded Poles were used to section off and protect an area under extreme caution. The Spring Loaded Pole (outside) utilizes the pivoting ball joint in order to angle the pole and secure the remainder of the broken sign against the building.
Also, two additonal Spring Loaded Poles were used, along with a caution tape reel. This warned anybody trying to enter or exit the building about the area under caution.

One spring loaded pole is used at a shipping and receiving office, to secure cardboard against a wall. ZipWall® Spring Loaded Poles can support up to 90 pounds of vertical pressure, and also can support weight horizontally, as seen in these applications. To control mess and maintain the area, a Spring Loaded Pole was used until the crew was ready to load and recycle the material.

In these pictures, an office building utilized the ZipWall® Dust Barrier System in a unique fashion, by using Spring Loaded Poles to create a horizontal plastic ceiling. Light dust and debris floated down onto the desk seen here during a roofing construction project. The office used the ZipWall® Dust Barrier System to protect the employees, office equipment, and the entire area by using a horizontal barrier.
Note: Plastic Sheeting is not meant to hold an immense amount of weight. Please use caution and never use plastic sheeting to hold up heavy objects or debris.

The drop ceilings throughout the entire office posed no problems for the spring loaded action of the ZipWall® Dust Barrier System. The spring loaded, twist-locking poles were raised to the ceiling and then secured using a Grip Disk. The spring loaded action ensured that the drop ceiling was not pushed out of place, or damaged. This is just another one of the many high quality features of ZipWall® Spring Loaded Poles.

ZipWall® poles are tough. They can hold weights of 70 lbs.
or more depending upon the strength of the twist to lock it. A very strong twist can
support as much as 110 lbs. It is important that you do not use it for holding anything
that could fall and cause injury or damage.
