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.
SIZES
OPTIONS:  Find the size that's perfect for your document. So many sizes are available: 3.5 x 5 / 4 x 6 / 5 x 7 / 8 x 10 / 8.5 x 11 / 8.5 x 14 / 11 x 17 / 18 x 24  / 22 x 28 / 27 x 34 CUT THEM DOWN: if we don't have the size you need, be aware that these can be cut down. We wouldn't say it's "easy as pie," but may serve you in a pinch.
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!

These are sturdy. The seals work well, even on rainy days in the information booth. Good value for the money.

The sleeves were just as described. They are excellent quality and easy to use. Two of the sleeves I bought are being used to achieve antique documents and I was able to position the document in the sleeve without damaging either. Excellent product.

I have been a customer of Trainers Warehouse for many years and have used 100's of the Doc U-Sleeves product (8.5 x 11 & 8.5 x 14) in 5 manufacturing facilities. The product looks great, has been a breeze to use, and holds up to unkind environments that manufacturing plants can present on the shop floor. Just recently I had a project arise that requires 11 x 17 Doc U-Sleeves so I was happy to place the order. As I attempted to load the sleeve it quickly became apparent I was not going to be successful. On May 8, I called 800-299-3770 and spoke to Rita about my concern and the difficulty I was experiencing. Her recommendation was to insert a ruler into the pocket and twist. This is suppose to add a bit of stretch to the pocket and break the static barrier. While I was able to gain some success with this method, it was not very easy and added a lot of time to the process. Additionally, it scared the inside of the pocket if inserted too deeply. I used this method on a flat desktop. However, when attempting the same process after the sleeves were mounted on a wall it failed and the sleeves pulled completely away from the wall. The content of these sleeves will be updated monthly so ease of use is critical to our success. This has been a very disappointing experience and for a highly visible project. While I appreciate your offer for a full refund, what I need is the sleeve to work as advertised on page 47 of your catalog, "EASILY SLIDE SHEETS IN AND OUT". In the meantime, I have ordered some 90 weight 11 x 17 stock and will be using an anti-static spray, both are added costs, in hopes of a temporary solution. I am concerned based on the conversation I had with Rita as this appears to be a known issue with the product. Are you able to provide me with a better solution that will not added time or cost? The 90 lb. paper works great, but comes at a higher cost.
