Does anyone know where I can find zippers that have self stick adhesive that you attach to plastic sheeting to make a temporary dust curtain that can be used as a door? I have seen them somewhere but can’t remember where. I believe you attach the zipper to the plastic and then open the zipper and slit the plastic to make a temporary doorway.

I've bought them at Menard's. They work pretty good, have used them several times.
*Any lumber yard with a hardware store should have them.
*A company called "Protective Products" will send you two 83" zippers for $11.90 ($18.19 for me with shipping and tax). Their number is 800-789-6633.
