Glass Partitions

A glass partition is a multipurpose solution for any kinds of rooms. Glass partitions are used not only to divide a room into parts, but to make full use of the natural light. The latest technologies of glass processing allow to produce partitions that vary in size, color and decoration.

Glass partitions for homes and offices

When it comes to dividing a room into 2 or more sections, glass partitions appear to be a modern solution that is both affordable and easy to install.

Here are the advantages of glass partitions:

  • Transparent. Glass partitions allow the sunlight to spread freely across the room, and you can save electricity.
  • Mobile. You can reorganize or remove your partitions if needed. As for plasterboard walls and other kinds of partitions, you will have to demount it.
  • Ready-to-go. A partition comes out 100% ready for installation. No additional decoration or painting is required.
  • No debris. The installation process is “clean”, there are almost no sweepings.
  • Safe. Hardened glass withstands high loads, and laminated glass is safe even if broken. The film keeps all bits and pieces together so that nobody would hurt oneself with the sharp edges.
  • A wide range of design options. Modern technologies allow to decorate the glass surface in many ways, e.g. printing, sandblasting, coloring, fusing etc.

The purpose of glass partitions

Transparent partitions can be used in several ways. For example, they are often needed at shops and malls, where the shop owners need to protect their goods, but still have them visible for customers.  

Glass partitions are also used to divide the entrance area for groups of visitors. To be short, if you need a solid but transparent wall, glass partitions will do the job.

To compare with plasterboard, stone and other popular building materials, glass doesn’t make the premise look smaller. It lets the light in, so your visitors won’t feel like being trapped in a maze.

The use of glass partitions

There is a widely spread opinion that glass partitions are used in non-residental property. Indeed, a lot of partitions are installed yearly at shops and offices.

At malls, shops and showrooms the glass partitions protect the goods without hiding them. The customers can observe the assortment of items through the partition.

At offices glass partitions help to divide the space quickly without construction work. With the transparent partitions it is easy to observe your employees during the work process. Want some privacy? You can make full use of blinds and jalousies. For example, a company’s CEO can have an office with a glass wall, so that he could check out the progress of his workers. But if he needs to hold important negotiations or look through some private papers, he can draw the blinds.

However, it would be wrong to consider glass partitions to be suitable only for non-residental property. They can be also installed in houses and apartments. You can divide the space in your home by installing partitions – it saves time and money. We make glass partitions according to the dimensions of your room, and they come out 100% ready. They also can be easily moved or disassembled if necessary without any damage to the floor, walls and ceiling.

After being removed, glass partitions can be reassembled in other locations, and you can renew the design as often as you like.

Glass withstands humidity and high temperatures, that’s why it is used in the design of bathrooms. Glass shower doors and steam cabins are made of shock resistant glass, so they are completely safe to use.

The glass surface is almost absolutely flat, and dirt doesn’t adhere to it, as it adheres to plastic or ceramic items, especially after several years of usage. To keep your glass partition clean and shiny, wash it with water and wipe it dry. Go green – you can do the job without detergents.

The types of partitions

There are different types of partitions. Each of them fits into a certain interior.

Frameless partitions

These are pieces of glass with smooth polished edges. They can be custom made to fit any shape and size. To produce frameless partitions, we use a single layer safety glass.

Aluminum framed partitions

They are more expensive, but they also provide a better soundproofing. The aluminum frame comes in different colors. The partition itself consists of 2 glass panels with a PVC film between them. The double layered glass is more shockproof than the single layered. It doesn’t break into shattered pieces, because the film holds the pieces together.

All-glass partitions

These are affordable solutions for small rooms. All-glass items are easy to install, and they come in a variety of colors and shapes.

Mobile partitions

Sliding doors and partitions are both convenient and stylish. The glass panels slide on metal rails and offer a scope of smart solutions for homes and offices. These constructions are easy to install and remove.
