Tabzoola makes extra-wide tab dividers whose tabs stick out 1/2 inch past standard dividers and past the sheet protectors in a binder, printed with your own titles. A Tabzoola extra-wide divider is a 9 1/2 x 11 sheet, a 9-inch body plus a 1/2-inch tab, where a standard letter divider is 9 x 11, an 8 1/2-inch body plus the same 1/2-inch tab. They are made at the Schaumburg, Illinois plant of Tabzoola's sister company, Anselmo Die & Index, in any cut, including 5-tab (1/5) and 6-tab (1/6) sets.

Tabzoola prices extra-wide dividers by quote: send the number of tabs, the titles and the quantity to sales@tabzoola.com or call (847) 397-1200, and Tabzoola replies with a price within one business day. Nothing prints until you approve a free PDF proof.

How much wider an extra-wide divider is

The tab on a divider has to clear whatever sits behind it. Sheet protectors and clear pockets are cut wider than a plain sheet of paper, and a standard divider's tab can disappear behind them. Tabzoola's extra-wide divider moves the whole tab out by 1/2 inch, so it stays visible.

  • Standard letter divider: 9 x 11 finished, an 8 1/2-inch body plus a 1/2-inch tab
  • Tabzoola extra-wide divider: 9 1/2 x 11 finished, a 9-inch body plus a 1/2-inch tab
  • The extra-wide tab sits 1/2 inch past a standard divider's tab
  • Any cut, including 1/5 for 5-tab sets and 1/6 for 6-tab sets
  • Your own titles printed on the tabs

Main tabs that show past the sub tabs

A two-level binder uses large main tabs for the sections and smaller sub tabs inside each one: a client review binder with five or six main sections, for example, each holding its own standard sub tabs. Tabzoola makes main-tab and sub-tab systems in which the main dividers are extra wide, so each main tab extends 1/2 inch past the sub tabs behind it, and each section's sub tabs start again at the first position.

If you already have the standard sub tabs, Tabzoola can quote the extra-wide main tabs on their own to sit in front of them; send the size and cut of the sub tabs you use, or a sample.

Printed extra-wide dividers or a store pack

Extra-wide dividers sold in office-supply packs come blank or with insertable tab strips that you print and slide in yourself. Tabzoola's extra-wide dividers are printed to order with the titles on the tab, for a firm that needs the same set in many binders.

What to send for an extra-wide quote

A quote is faster when it has everything the plant needs.

  • The number of tabs in a set and the cut, for example 5 tabs on a 1/5 cut
  • The titles for each tab, in order
  • For a main-and-sub system: the main sections, and the sub tabs under each
  • The sheet protectors or standard dividers the tabs must clear, or a sample
  • The quantity of sets, and whether they are collated and punched

Amazing Customer Service

We had a deadline to get 50 presentation books out, and our current tab supplier couldn't deliver the tabs that we needed on time. I worked directly with Justin and he was able to get our order manufactured and shipped out within days. The order arrived in time for us to complete our presentations, and the tabs looked great. This type of amazing customer service is very hard to find nowadays, but I'm thrilled to now have a supplier that I can count on.

Lamar W. · Sep 1, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Lamar, thank you — a deadline like yours is exactly what the shop is built for. The moment Justin heard it, your deadline became our deadline, and your order was manufactured and out the door in days. Rush work only counts when it arrives looking right, so "the tabs looked great" is the part we're proudest of. Count on us for the next one — we'll be here. John Anselmo, Tabzoola

Thanks !

Justin was so nice to work with ! He answered all my questions and now I feel like an expert :)

Megan D. · Aug 29, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Megan, thank you for the kind words — I'll pass them straight to Justin. Getting every question answered before anything prints is exactly how we like to work, so "now I feel like an expert" is about the best review we could ask for. Whenever your next set of tabs comes up, your questions are always welcome. John Anselmo, Tabzoola

Great Price

Glad I found you online. You're approximately 30 percent less than my old supplier and easier to work with. I'll be back.

Ben H. · Aug 22, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Thank you, Ben — the price is no accident. We publish the whole table, setup included, so the number you see while you design is the number on the invoice. Glad the switch was easy, and we'll be ready when you are. — Tabzoola

Great customer service

I can't say enough about how great Justin was helping me with my order. After I approved the order he took time to call me to ask if i was sure about a decision to use next day delivery on the whole order when only a partial would keep me going while the rest of the order shipped ups ground. He saved me a ton of money. Thank you for caring about your customers. I wish more people were like you.

Amy L. · Aug 20, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Thank you, Amy — I'll make sure Justin sees this. Splitting the shipment so only the part you needed went next-day was the right call, and it's the kind of thing we'd rather catch on the phone than have you find on the invoice. Anyone here would have made that call. Thank you for taking the time to write it down. — Tabzoola

Thank You

My old supplier went out of business. You guys produced an exact copy of what we've been using. Thank you!!!

Perri V. · Aug 18, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Thank you, Perri — losing a supplier you've used for years is a real headache, and matching a set you already rely on is the kind of job we like. If you ever need another one matched, a photo of an existing tab is enough for us to pick up the titles and the colors. Glad we could keep you running. — Tabzoola

Perfect!

Tabs came out better than expected. Will definitely be back.

Joan S. · Aug 18, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Thank you, Joan — better than expected is a good place to land. The part people usually don't expect is the make: real die-cut tabs on index stock, with the Mylar bonded on both sides of the extension, which is where tabs tear first. We'll be ready whenever you need the next run. — Tabzoola

Thanks, Louie — easy is the goal, and hearing it beats any feature list. Everything's printed and die-cut here in Schaumburg, so if anything ever isn't easy, you're one call from the people who made it. — Tabzoola

Impressive

Very seldom do you see orders handled in such a professional manner. Thank you for a great job!

Sherri K. · Aug 13, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Thank you, Sherri — that’s a compliment we don’t take lightly. Every order here gets the same handling: a free proof before anything prints, and one shop seeing it through from die-cut to the box. Glad yours showed it. — Tabzoola

Turned out perfect!

Beth H. · Aug 9, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Thank you, Beth — "turned out perfect" is the best thing we can hear. Every set is printed and die-cut by our sister company, Anselmo Die & Index, in Schaumburg, so the people who made yours are the ones who checked it before it shipped. We'll be ready whenever you need the next one.

Exactly what we needed

They looked great and saved hours of collating :)

Chris C. · Aug 6, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Thank you, Chris — collating is exactly the labor we're trying to take off your desk. Your sets came off the line already in order, so nobody had to stack them by position. Glad it showed. We'll be ready for the next run. — Tabzoola

Exceptional service

Tabs turned out great, and the service was above and beyond.

Jessica · Jun 28, 2026
Response from Tabzoola

Thank you, Jessica — service is the part we can't automate, so that means a lot. The tabs and the phone come from the same building in Schaumburg, which is the whole idea. Your design is saved whenever you need another run. — Tabzoola
