ZP4 ZipPole 10-Foot Spring-Loaded Poles for Dust Barriers 4-Pack

I used these poles on a renovation I just did. The poles held up the 3M plastic very well. The client was impressed with how professional it looked. It was easy to install and take down. I recommend the product 2 thumbs up!

Funciona muy bien para lo que es " Sostener Plastico". es un poco debil el material, puede a tenderse a doblar si no lo usas con cuidado, No es uso rudo. Pero Funciona pata lo que esta hecho.

9.5/10. Slight dust thru zip, otherwise superb. We had a bay window removed and replaced with bi-folds and a balcony. Erected zip wall and taped platinum to ceiling. Minimal dust in room after, likely small amount thru zip teeth and rest when using the door. Highly recommended

These poles, although advertised as "cheap", are surprisingly light, sturdy, and well made for their intended purpose; holding up plastic sheet to keep dust contained, and they are just perfect for that task. I bought two sets of four poles for my project. The shipping boxes only had a couple bands of tape holding them shut, but all the parts were factory fresh and no parts were missing or damaged. The ceiling feet firmly snapped on to the top of the poles, held the plastic sheet in place as designed, and held snugly against my 8 foot high flat textured ceiling. The twist locks on the poles all worked well. A pole about every five or six feet provides a reasonable seal against the ceiling. I suppose zippers and ceiling "cross members" or tape would make a tighter seal if needed, but I've kicked up a whole lot of dust and, so far, not much, if any, dust has settled outside the work area. I'm really happy with these poles! No comment on the non-slip feet since I have carpet and am not using them. No comment on the zippers since the "tucked in flap" is working well for me and I'm not using the zippers. No comment on the carrying cases since I haven/t had a chance to use them yet. Since I'll probably store them in the attic until my next Harry-home-owner project, I'll likely just put the poles back in the shipping box. But I guess if one was carrying them from job to job, or otherwise using them fairly often, the storage bags would be pretty handy. I also bought a roll of 2 mil plastic sheet 10X100 feet (plenty left over for the next project). Oh, and for the floor, a couple of "one tuff" plastic/paper drop cloths. My task was to block off the center section of my living room to repair the ceiling drywall, an area about 8 X 13 feet. I planned on a pole in each corner and two more poles evenly spaced on each of the 13 foot runs. Here's what I did: First, I pre-tensioned a pole about half the spring length and then used it as a guide to pre-tension the rest of the poles. I then cut a length of plastic about 45 feet long. I started at the entrance corner to the planned work area and wrapped the plastic from one corner to the next on the outside of the poles (securing the plastic to each additional pole as I went), leaving about a foot of plastic hanging out past the first pole. I only unfolded the plastic as much as needed to attach it to the top of the poles as I went, letting it overhang toward the work area about 8 or 10 inches over the top of each pole. When I got back to the starting corner I used a fifth pole a few inches away from the first (starting) pole to secure the final stretch of plastic, which I left about 3 feet long (past the starting pole). I then unfolded the plastic the rest of the way to the floor and, after moving the poles so the plastic was taunt, I tucked the plastic under the foot of each pole and then fully compressed the spring on each pole. As expected, the plastic was drooping down from the ceiling about an inch or so on the long runs, so I put up two more poles evenly spaced on the "far side", and the remaining pole in the center of the other long run; all of them fully tensioned. This seemed to snug up both sides against the ceiling pretty good, so I determined to leave the eighth pole a few inches from the starting pole, without putting the plastic under the foot of the pole, but, instead, slipping the end of the plastic between the first and final pole. This made a quick and convenient way to get in and out of the work area (without using zippers). The whole setup process took about an hour, more or less, and the poles, plastic, and drop cloth do a really good job keeping the dust contained.

Molto buono
