contents Calegari and Loukidou introduced zippers, consisting of a disjoint pair of invariant real trees in the boundary of a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold group $π_1(M)$, which ensure the existence of a universal circle. We study the action of $π_1(M)$ on a minimal zipper and prove a fixed point dichotomy: every nontrivial element either fixes a unique point in each tree or acts freely on both. This answers a question of Calegari and Loukidou. As a consequence, there exists an element with exactly one fixed point in each tree.
