1. What Problems Does Quickmount Solve?
Traditional hanging systems often rely on metal suspension plates and rivets. While functional, these systems introduce several operational friction points. Specifically, Quickmount was engineered to eliminate these common industrial headaches:
Excessive Installation Downtime
Traditional systems often involve more components, more handling, and more time on site. By contrast, QuickMount is designed for fast installation, with a polymer rail and a simple push-on format that helps reduce fitting time. As a result, it is well suited to internal openings where speed and convenience matter.
Safety Risks in Public Spaces
In offices, walk-in coolers, and other pedestrian-led areas, buyers often want to avoid unnecessary metal hardware. QuickMount uses a polymer-based rail, so it is a sensible choice where a lighter-duty, cleaner-looking system is preferred. Therefore, it is often selected for internal zones where ease of use is just as important as day-to-day practicality.
Maintenance Access Issues
When strips become dirty or damaged, slow replacement often leads to delays and avoidable heat loss. QuickMount addresses that problem with tool-free strip changes. In other words, maintenance teams can remove and replace individual strips quickly, which helps keep openings working properly with less downtime.

2. Best Use Cases for Quickmount
Because of its polymer construction and fast-fitting design, QuickMount works best in specific internal applications rather than every opening. In particular, it is a strong fit where light-to-medium duty use, hygiene, and easy strip replacement are the main priorities. Just as importantly, these QuickMount strip curtains suit sites that need clear zoning without heavy metal hardware.
When to use Quickmount PVC curtains?
QuickMount is the go-to choice for light-to-medium duty applications where ease of setup is the priority. In other words, if you need a polymer-based system that fits quickly and allows tool-free strip changes, it is a strong option. However, it is not the right system for heavy forklift traffic or harsher external openings.
- High-Traffic Pedestrian Areas: Ideal for walk-in coolers, freezers, and offices where easy passage matters and a simple internal barrier is needed.
- Food Processing & Hygiene Zones: A strong option for laboratories, commercial kitchens, and cleaner production areas thanks to the FDA-compliant polymer system, especially when paired with food-grade PVC strips.
- Schools & Nurseries: Using the school and nursery clear PVC QuickMount curtains and Freeflow format, QuickMount helps create child-safe, clear boundaries in educational settings.
- Rapid Maintenance: Well suited to environments where strips need tool-free replacement to minimise downtime and keep openings working properly.
- Privacy & Visual Control: Use Frosted Freeflow curtains for sensory zones and softer screening, or Solid Colour Freeflow curtains for colour-coding and visual separation.
- Light-Duty Internal Applications: Well suited to openings that need a cost-effective strip curtain system without heavy industrial hardware.
- Cold Rooms and Chilled Areas: Suitable for internal chilled spaces when matched with polargrade PVC.
3. Hanging System Comparison Table
Most buyers are unsure which hardware fits their specific application. To assist in your decision-making process, we have compared the four primary systems used in 2026.
| System | Best For | Installation Speed | Traffic Level | Safety Profile |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hook On | General Industrial | Medium | Low / Medium | Standard (Metal) |
| Quickmount | Light-duty internal use, hygiene zones, pedestrian openings | Very Fast | Light / Pedestrian | Polymer-based |
| TwinTrack | Sliding/Dual Openings | Medium | High | Heavy Duty |
| Sliding Track | Large Openings | Medium | Heavy | Industrial |
4. Installation Guide: The Quickmount Method
Installation of the Quickmount system is remarkably straightforward. Unlike traditional tracks that require complex layouts, these rails clip together to fit any width.
Step 1: Mounting the Rail
The QuickMount polymer rail is supplied in practical sections and can be fixed to a suitable wall face or soffit, depending on the opening. Simply secure the rail with appropriate fixings for the substrate.
Step 2: Preparing the Strips
If you are ordering a kit, the strips are prepared to suit the system. Alternatively, if you are working from PVC by the metre or replacement material, make sure the strips are punched to suit the QuickMount format.
Step 3: The Push-Fit Process
This is where QuickMount stands out. Once the rail is fixed, the strips can be fitted without specialist tools. Simply line them up and push them into place. As a result, ongoing maintenance is straightforward, and individual strip replacement is quick.
Tools Required:
- A drill/driver for mounting the rail.
- A spirit level.
- No specialist hanging tools for day-to-day strip replacement.
5. How to Choose the Right Configuration
To ensure you get the most out of your Quickmount system, consider the following decision logic based on your environment:
- Opening Width: QuickMount is best suited to smaller and medium internal openings where a light-duty system is appropriate.
- Traffic Frequency: It works well for frequent pedestrian movement and light-to-medium duty use. However, for heavy forklift traffic, a more heavy-duty hanging system is the better choice.
- Environment: If hygiene is a priority, QuickMount is a sensible option, especially alongside anti-microbial PVC, Frosted Freeflow curtains, or Solid Colour Freeflow curtains, depending on the space.
- Position of the Opening: QuickMount is best placed behind doors or in protected internal locations. It is not the right choice for harsh external weather exposure.
6. Real Operational Benefits
Beyond the ease of installation, Quickmount provides long-term commercial advantages that improve your bottom line.
Reduced Energy Loss
Because strip replacement is simple, damaged sections are less likely to be left hanging for weeks. Consequently, internal thermal separation is easier to maintain, especially in chilled rooms, pedestrian routes, and other controlled spaces.
Improved Hygiene Compliance
The QuickMount system is a good fit for hygiene-led environments because the polymer rail is practical to clean and resistant to corrosion. Therefore, it is particularly relevant in food processing, schools, nurseries, and cleaner internal zones.
Lower Total Cost of Ownership
QuickMount is a cost-effective option for the right application. In particular, it helps reduce labour time during installation and routine strip replacement, which can make a noticeable difference over the life of the curtain.
7. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I retrofit QuickMount to my existing opening?
Yes, in many cases. As long as you have a suitable fixing surface, QuickMount can be installed on an existing internal opening.
Is QuickMount a metal system?
No. QuickMount is a polymer-based plastic system, not a metal hanging system.
Which version do you supply?
We only offer the QuickMount MD (Medium-Duty) version.
Can I replace individual strips?
Yes. One of the main benefits is easy strip replacement, so maintenance is fast and straightforward.
Is it suitable for forklift traffic or exposed external openings?
Not usually. QuickMount is best for light-to-medium duty internal applications, pedestrian traffic, hygiene zones, and openings positioned behind doors rather than in harsh external weather.
8. Real-World Applications: From Offices to Food Prep Areas
In practice, QuickMount is most useful where speed, hygiene, and easy maintenance matter more than impact resistance. For example, it is a strong choice for office-to-warehouse pedestrian routes, internal chilled rooms, and food handling spaces where staff need a practical barrier that can be maintained quickly.
It also suits schools and nurseries that need safe, clear boundaries without heavy metal hardware. In addition, Frosted Freeflow curtains work well for privacy and sensory zones, while Solid Colour Freeflow curtains help create vibrant workspaces with simple visual separation.
Likewise, for facilities teams managing light-duty openings, the appeal is straightforward: fast fitting, simple strip swaps, and a cost-effective polymer system that does the job without unnecessary complexity.
