Determine required height (standard installation is 300mm from the floor)
Calculate overlap requirements (standard 50mm overlap between strips)
Consider clearance needs for equipment and materials
Strip Selection:
Choose strip width:
- 200mm (for openings less than 900mm)
- 300mm (for standard installations)
Specify the number of strips needed based on width and overlap requirements

Mounting System Selection:

Standard Key Rail: For typical installations

"I would like to commend Flexsheild for their customer support, every step of the process has been very professional from quote to supply. I changed the request a few times and nothing was too much trouble, the welding screens arrived promptly from order and were packed extremely well. As we received 4 different curtain sizes all were clearly marked which made installation a breeze. Not only have we improved the visual appearance of our welding bays we believe we have provided our teachers and students with a safer working environment. I would be happy to recommend Flexsheild to any education provider as its Australian made and meets the highest quality and safety standards. Regards Steve Dearle Design Technology Technician Ellenbrook Secondary College."
