Custom free-standing glass screens for offices
When office space is at a premium and your business is steadily growing, you might be wondering how to optimise the limited floor space you have available. Well, you should forget about fabric screens and gloomy cubicles – we’re here to explain why glass room dividers are the perfect solution for accommodating several areas or teams in one open-plan space.
Glass walls are a popular way to modernise commercial and private workspaces, but floor-to-ceiling office glass partitions aren’t always suitable. If you’re looking for a more flexible option, free-standing glass screens could be the answer.
Our simple yet high-quality acrylic or glass office screens are ideal for transforming an inefficient office into a maximised workspace with relatively little effort – and here’s why.
Clear room dividers
Not only does clear glass create a modern and elegant aesthetic, but its transparent nature also means these free-standing screens won’t obstruct the flow of light through the space, even while dividing it into smaller sections.
It’s well-known that adequate lighting – especially natural light – has lots of health benefits for workers, so allowing light to spread more effectively will establish a brighter and more comfortable atmosphere that encourages productivity.
Retaining a sense of openness also gives visitors a great visual impression of professionalism and hard-working honesty.
Enhancing privacy without reducing views, glass free-standing screens still allow employees to feel like part of a wider team, so they can communicate and collaborate when needed and focus on individual work when preferred.
Movable glass partitions
When permanent structural changes aren’t possible, whether due to rental restrictions or budget limitations, free-standing screens are the perfect stand-in for temporary walls because they don’t need to be fixed to the floor or ceiling.
While some systems require drilling to be mounted in place, which can leave holes that need repairing after removal, our free-standing glass screens are stabilised with a stainless steel frame or posts, glass clamps, and a steel base.
Not only does this make them faster to set up, but also much easier to reposition if you want to rearrange your layout later on. Since they aren’t permanently attached, you can move them around with minimal disruption.
This flexibility is extremely beneficial for smaller companies that are experiencing steady growth and need to adjust their workspace at regular intervals to reflect the varying needs of their workforce.
Versatile applications
Whether you use them to form a long run of glass screens or as individual floor screens to divide smaller sections, our glass room dividers can fulfil a range of needs in a wide variety of settings – including desktop or fixed-base options.
Available in both acrylic and glass materials, depending on the size and personal preference, free-standing screens can be used to designate areas for specific activities, teams, or individuals, helping to create a more organised structure.
Common uses include free-standing partitions for separating banks of desks, desktop partitions to give workers their own spaces, and desk guards for reception areas. These also provide health protection by helping to reduce the spread of germs.
These don’t just work well in private offices, but also in office spaces in healthcare settings, schools, libraries, banks, and more.
Customisable designs
We offer a full design service here at Glass Interiors, so one of the best parts is that you can request bespoke free-standing glass screen designs to meet the exact requirements of your office – with sizes available up to 1900mm tall.
We can supply 10mm toughened glass or acrylic versions as required, with custom cut-outs for desk-mounted uses if needed.
Depending on your preferred style, you can choose from framed or frameless designs, though our Crittall-style screens with black banded frames are a favourite amongst businesses looking for an extra-stylish space management solution.
Additionally, if you want to customise your glass screens further, you can enquire about using frosted glass or manifestations to level up your office décor – for example, incorporating your logo or a more minimalistic pattern across the panels.
