WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO PURCHASE:
1) You will need one +Magnetic Entry Strip ($65) per room you would like to enclose. (If you wish to create the "Flap Door Setup" for wheelchair access you will need 2 +Magnetic Entry Strips™ per room and a set of Fastener Tabs.
2) You will need rolls of Semi-Clear Poly Sheeting to create your barrier. 1 roll will cover approximately 3 medium to large doors. Our roll dimensions are 10ft x 25ft in. (Alternatively, several dental practices have opted for a fully-clear vinyl sheeting with 8-20 mil thickness. (This type of vinyl sheeting can be found on Amazon or local fabric or hardwares stores like Home Depot).
3) You will need a roll or more of our Poly Barrier Tape depending on the length of the perimeter you wish to frame and number of rooms you are enclosing. Our rolls are 2" x 60 yds.
1) Cut poly sheeting to the desired size.
2) Depending on your surface material you may need to frame your entryway using masking or poly tape to create a smooth under-layer or simply for the purposes of creating a protective layer. Please note that long term use of any tape may create paint damage upon removal.
3) Attach your barrier to masking tape or poly tape framing by applying poly tape over the border of your barrier such that it hangs half-way over the barrier’s edge as shown in diagram above. (In may cases you may be able to skip the underlay and attached barrier directly to your wall.)
4) Once your barrier is ready you simply apply our product to create your self closing opening! (You should use a utility knife to cut the mounting strip properly) Simple installation videos are located below:

Other Helpful Tips:
-
To ensure proper function of entry strip make sure plastic sheeting is fashioned to frame without slack so that there is not an overhang of sheeting or magnetic strip onto your floor.
-
Attaching +Magnetic Strip columns closer to the inner edges of the cut mounting strip ensures a stronger closing function.
-
For safety consider clear or highly translucent sheeting.
-
Make sure you cut the mounting strip prior to installing the +Magnetic Entry Strip to it.

**Suggested Purchase for Long Term use of Barrier:
Use a staple gun to secure your barrier to the frame you will have created. (SEE INSTALL GUIDE BELOW) This will keep the barrier from sagging or slipping over long-term use.
