Tools and Hardware Reviews of ZipWall ZipPole ZP4 Low Cost Spring Loaded Pole Kit with Carry Bag

Customer Review: Extremely disappointed with the quality of the slider pieces (head pieces)...
Summary: 2 Stars

These ZipPoles seemed like a great idea, but I'm upset by the low build quality of one of the components - the slider pieces (head piece, according to Zipwall's website). I don't doubt that other people are breaking these pieces with regularity when you consider that they sell replacement "head" pieces on their website. Here is my experience.

I was locking in plastic sheeting in one of the slider pieces during the first use and the slider piece broke. The slider pieces which you use to secure the plastic (or other barrier) is not made very well and is susceptible to bending/breaking. I would advise you to use as thin of plastic sheeting as possible. I was only using 3 mil thick plastic sheeting and it managed to break on me. In my opinion, 3 mil is a reasonable plastic sheeting thickness. I would imagine that if these slider pieces make it through a single use, their likelihood of bending/breaking on the next use will be quite high. One of my slider pieces broke and another bent. The other two managed to make it through one use unscathed so that's 50% of the slider pieces making it through a single use without bending or breaking. That's a failing grade (much like the rating I've given this product).

What is extremely disappointing is that I ordered this set well in advance knowing that they *could be* useful for the floor refinishing/sanding that I am doing, but by the time I get around to using them for the first time, it has been just over 1 month (1 month and 2 days) since I bought them so they are ineligible for a return to Amazon. It is frustrating because all I expect is for them to send me a couple more of these poor quality slider pieces (which will also be likely to break in 1 or 2 uses). The poles themselves seem to be good quality so I was able to overcome my disappointment with the slider pieces to acknowledge this with an extra star.

Although these poles *could* get the job done effectively, I am very upset that I couldn't get the slider pieces through a single use without them bending/cracking on account of the thickness of 3mil plastic sheeting. On the flip side, if you use sheeting that is thinner (1 or 2 mil sheeting), you run a higher risk of the plastic tearing so you walk a fine line between having too thin plastic sheeting that will tear or breaking the slider pieces.

Right now, I am in the process of trying to contact the manufacturer of the ZipPoles for the replacement head pieces, and I hope they will be easy to deal with. I will follow up to advise everyone about how easy OR difficult it is to get replacement head pieces based on this 1-year warranty that they offer. My rating is biased because of the disappointing component (slider pieces) despite the rest of the set being of decent quality. If the head pieces were better quality, I could see giving this product a 4 or 5 star rating. In my opinion, a product is only as good as its weakest link, and in this case, the weakest link is the poorly made slider parts.

With the ZipPole Four-Pack you can create a dust barrier up to 30 feet long, and you can use the system again and again. The ZP4 includes four ZipPole Spring-Loaded Poles, two Standard Zippers, and a convenient Carry Bag that can hold up to 12 poles. Plastic sheeting is not included.

Winner of the Remodeling Show 2009 Best New Product Award
The ZipPole product is made of steel for durability and strength. These poles can support up to 80 pounds each, and their height can be adjusted from 4' 2" to 10' 3". They can handle plastic or cloth sheeting up to eight mils thick. In fact, ZipPole products are the winner of the Remodeling Show 2009 Best New Product Award, and they have all the patented features of the original award-winning ZipWall Spring-Loaded Poles.

Ideal for a Wide Range of Construction Projects
This system is ideal for a wide variety of residential, commercial, and DIY projects that create dust or other potentially harmful debris. These projects include demolition, drywall work, plaster repairs, insulating walls and ceilings, sanding and painting, chimney work, kitchen and bath renovation, and more. Small and lightweight, the ZipPole Four-Pack is easy to handle and can fit in the trunk of a car.

Easy to Use, No-Damage Installation
ZipWall systems remove the need for tape, staples, glue, furring strips, and ladders when creating a temporary dust barrier. This saves time and it eliminates costly repairs to finished surfaces.

Sheeting is securely attached at the top of the pole by sandwiching the material between the interlocking head and plate. The twist-locking telescoping pole lets you raise the sheeting quickly and easily without a ladder.

All ZipWall pole systems feature Spring Loading at the top. This lets you lift the pole to tuck the sheeting underneath for easy setup. It also maintains constant tension on the pole, compensating for movement at the ceiling or at the floor if the poles are bumped, or if there is a lot of air movement at the jobsite.

The ZipPole barrier system is locked in place with non-skid, non-marking pads at the top of each pole. These pads grab the ceiling like magic. The non-skid GripDisk keeps the foot of each pole and the sheeting locked in position at the floor.

Ideal for Dropped Ceilings or When Running Negative/Positive Air Pressure
The ZipPole product is ideal for dropped ceilings. Just place the poles so the tops push against the grid. Then, follow the grid until you have created a barrier of desired size. Spring Loading keeps the barrier in position by automatically adjusting the pole height to compensate for any movement of the grid during setup.

If you are renovating a space where negative or positive air pressure is required, the non-skid pad at the top of the pole, the non-skid GripDisk under the foot of the pole, and internal Spring Loading will keep the ZipWall dust barrier securely in position.

Create a Doorway Easily with the Standard Self-Adhesive Zippers
With the two Standard Zippers included in the ZP4 kit, you can create a doorway anywhere in the plastic sheeting. Use one zipper for a simple doorway or place two zippers side by side to create a wide roll-up doorway. The wide doorway makes it easy to move equipment and building materials in and out yet still maintain a dust-tight seal when closed.

Easy, One-Person Installation in Just Minutes
Using old-fashioned methods, a barrier 30 feet long and 10 feet high would take between one and three hours to erect. With the ZipPole Spring-Loaded Poles, the same barrier can be installed in a matter of minutes.

Unlike barriers made with tape, staples, glue, or furring strips, this dust barrier system won't come down unexpectedly or cause damage to finished surfaces. Best of all, you can use a ZipWall dust barrier system again and again.

Works with Other ZipWall Products
The ZipPole Four-Pack gives you the complete framework for a 30-foot-long sealed workspace. All you need is a roll of plastic sheeting. If you want to enclose a larger space, purchase additional ZipPole Spring-Loaded Poles in the convenient the ZP2 Two-Pack.

This ZipPole product can be used with ZipWall's Tight Seal accessories, including Foam Rails, to create a continuous seal along the ceiling. It can be used with the ZipWall Side Pack to create a continuous seal along the walls. Doorways can easily be created with ZipWall's Heavy-Duty or Standard Zippers.

If you are working with ceilings over 10 feet tall, you can purchase ZipWall's original 12-foot Spring-Loaded Poles in the handy SLP2 Two-Pack, SLP6 Six-Pack, or Four-Pack Plus Convenience Pack. For cathedral or vaulted ceilings, or ceiling heights over 12 feet, you can also purchase ZipWall's 20-foot KT-20 Spring-Loaded Poles.

Protect Children and Property from Lead-Dust Contamination
Providing a dust-tight seal around worksites is very important, especially when doing demolition or when renovating an older home that has lead paint. In fact, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) mandates that dust be contained when as little as six square feet of lead paint is disturbed in homes or facilities where there are children under six years old.

Go to www.epa.gov/lead to get details on the latest lead-safety rules and lead-safe work practices. New EPA laws are an important reason to keep a ZipWall Barrier System on hand.

What's in the Box
The ZipPole ZP4 Kit includes four 10-foot Spring-Loaded Poles, a box of two Standard Zippers, a 12-Pole capacity Carry Bag, and all necessary adapters, plates, and tethers.
