FAQS

Q: How are DocU-Sleeves different from laminating?
A: Unlike lamination, DocU-Sleeves are reusable. Simply slide in new content anytime—perfect for changing signage, agendas, or rotating job aids.

Q: How is this different from a page protector?

A: DocU-Sleeves are sturdier and present documents more professionally than thin binder sleeves, yet are easier to update than rigid acrylic frames.

Q: What surfaces can I mount them on and what backing should I choose?
A: Choose from plain back (for bulletin boards), magnetic back (for metal surfaces), or VELCRO®/OMNI back (for walls, doors, cubicles, and other non-metal surfaces).

Each DocuSleeve is inspected and placed into it's own poly bag to ensure its quality

** TIPS **

There are literally hundreds of uses for our plastic sleeves. We see them in use for certificates, job aids, real estate listings, checklists, and evacuation signs, to name just a few.

No matter how you use DocU-Sleeves, here are just a few tips:

• ORIENTATION
  • You can put sheets in vertically or horizontally (portrait or landscape).
  • For vertical use, we recommend leaving the opening at the top, unless it's posted outside and you want to protect your document from water. Even if the opening is at the bottom, your document is unlikely to slide out.
• BACKINGS
  • VELCRO/OMNI - If you're not sure whether a recipient will use the document protectors on a plaster or fabric wall, choose the VELCRO/OMNI backing, so that they can use it on either surface.
  • OMNI - the gentle adhesive will not harm painted walls.
  • MAGNETS - these are best used for metal surfaces like file cabinets. They are light-weight magnets so if you stuff too many sheets in the plastic sleeves, it might be too heavy and slide down.
  • CONVENIENCE: We send the DocU-Sleeves with backings already attached.
• DRY-ERASE APPLICATIONS
  • LAMINATION: Use these plastic sleeves for paper in lieu of lamination.
  • DRY-ERASE: Put a blank sheet of paper inside (or some sort of worksheet, chart or form), then use dry-erase markers on the document protectors. You'll see they wipe clean nicely. Plus, you can slide in colored paper, worksheets, and forms.
• LONG LIFE
  • Slide sheets in and out as often as you need. They're not flimsy and so they'll stand up well to lots of transitions.
  • If using OMNI tabs, the adhesive may lessen if you take them up and down frequently, but feel free to get a bigger backup supply of OMNI TABS!
  • DocU-Sleeves placed in direct sunlight or in very bright areas may yellow over time.

VELCRO® Hook and Loop fasteners are indispensable for all sorts of reasons. Trainers Warehouse makes great use of peel-and-stick VELCRO to hang DocU-Sleeves.

The HOOK/LOOP combos are most versatile because the HOOKS can used on fabric walls. However if you have "real" plaster walls or some other flat surface, "hooks" alone won't work. Adhere the peel-and-stick LOOPS to the flat surface, giving the hooks something to grab onto.

[NOTE: the adhesive on these velcro pieces are know to DAMAGE PAINTED WALLS and pull off paint. If you need a more a more gentle adhesive, we recommend OMNI-TABS.]

If you need a few extra pieces of VELCRO®, ready to peel and stick, these small pieces are sold in pairs.

• Sold in pairs
• Just the hook side
• Adhere to most fabric
• Pieces measure 3/8" x 1"

Great for hanging on any surface! Permanent adhesive strip on both sides of VELCRO!

Weighing in at only a little over 2 pounds, this surprisingly stable floor stand doubles as a 5 ft. or a 6 ft. stand, measuring a maximum of 70" from floor to the top of the pole, and includes two plastic Docu-Sleeves (document holders) to accommodate both 8.5" x 11" and 11" x 17" signs. It collapses to 11.5" by means of an elasticized cord inside 5 individual poles -- just like collapsible tent poles!

• Using the sign's dry-erase feature…
  • folks can easily write messages to one another and then erase them once read.

At last, a graceful, versatile, and lightweight sign holder at an affordable price! The 4 foot Floor Stand is easy to set up, easy to move, easy to swap in new signs at a moment's notice by simply printing them out on standard sized paper.

Weighing in at only a little over 2 pounds, both the 4 ft. and 5 ft. stands are surprisingly stable and collapse to 11.5" by means of an elasticized cord inside individual poles -- just like collapsible tent poles! Each includes an 8.5" x 11" plastic DocU-Sleeve (document holder) in which to insert your paper sign. The 4 ft. stand measures 47" from floor to top of pole; the 5 ft. stand (#CAFLN5) measures 58" from floor to top of pole.

Also available: 6 ft. stand (#CAFLT) is even more versatile.

Each base is 8" diam, weighs 1.3 lbs.

Recommended for indoor use.

** TIPS **

The floor stands are super convenient because they fold up like tent poles. Also, keep in mind these quick tips:

• If you need to move the sign stand, you'll have to move the base. If it you grab the pole, it will separate from the base. This isn't that big a deal, but is a useful reminder.
• While it's pretty easy these days to print out a sign, you can always put a clean sheet of paper in the DocU-Sleeve and write on the top with a dry-erase marker.
• Using the sign's dry-erase feature…
  • folks can easily write messages to one another and then erase them once read.
  • For easy messaging, attach a marker and/or eraser to the sign with VELCRO

The Convertible Desktop Sign Holder (Extends up to 2 Feet) gives you professional tabletop signage that sets up in seconds and adjusts to the room. Telescoping from low-profile to nearly 24″, it’s perfect for agendas, table numbers, wayfinding, and “Welcome” messages in training rooms, lobbies, and expo booths. Pair with clear sleeves (e.g., DocU-Sleeves) to swap 8.5″ × 11″ signage in a snap.

Includes two poles, each 1-foot length. Use both to extend to 2 feet, just one for 1 foot high, or none at all! Circular 8" diam. metal base is super-stable, and the flexible grip can accommodate the thickness of a DocU-Sleeve or any sign of your own up to 1/8" in thickness.

** TIPS FOR USING 11x17 PLASTIC SLEEVES **

There are literally hundreds of uses for DocU-Sleeves. We see them in use for certificates, job aids, real estate listings, checklists, and evacuation signs, to name just a few.

No matter how you use DocU-Sleeves, here are just a few tips:

• ORIENTATION
  • You can put sheets in vertically or horizontally (portrait or landscape).
  • For vertical use, we recommend leaving the opening at the top, unless it's posted outside and you want to protect your document from water. Even if the opening is at the bottom, your document is unlikely to slide out.
• BACKINGS
  • VELCO/OMNI - If you're not sure whether a recipient will use the sheet protector on a plaster or fabric wall, choose the VELCRO/OMNI backing, so that they can use it on either surface.
  • OMNI - the gentle adhesive will not harm painted walls.
  • MAGNETS - these are best used for metal surfaces like file cabinets. They are light-weight magnets so if you stuff too many sheets in the DocU-Sleeve, it might be too heavy and slide down.
  • CONVENIENCE: We send the DocU-Sleeves with backings already attached.
  • EASEL: If you don't have wall space, but want a DocU-Sleeve to stand on a desk, ask us about Easel Backs.
• APPLICATIONS
  • LAMINATION: Use DocU-Sleeves in lieu of lamination.
  • DRY-ERASE: Put a blank sheet of paper inside (or some sort of worksheet, chart or form), then use dry-erase markers on the DocU-Sleeves. You'll see the wipe clean nicely. Plus, you can slide in colored paper, worksheets and forms.
• LONG LIFE
  • Slide sheets in an out as often as you need. They're not flimsy and so they'll stand up well to lots of transitions.
  • If using OMNI tabs, the adhesive may lessen if you take them up and down frequently, but feel free to get a back up supply of OMNI TABS!
  • DocU-Sleeves placed in direct sunlight or in very bright areas may yellow over time.
  • Are they recyclable? Not at this time, but we're working on it!
