What Are the Options Available for Office Partitions?

There are many options available when it comes to office partitions. Some of the most common ones include;

Demountable Partitions

Demountable partitions are a great option if you want an office partitioning system but also require flexibility in your office space. These non-load baring walls can be taken down and put back up with great ease. They can even be taken with you if you choose to move office. Demountable partitions can also be constructed onsite with minimal mess and disruption made to the office space. They can come in a variety of materials including;

  • Aluminium
  • Timber
  • Glass (choice of single or double glazing and integrated blinds)


This type of partition can also have positive effects on the acoustics of your office, but this should be discussed with the installer before it is selected.

Glazed Partitions

Glazed partitions can be very beneficial in offices that would not receive much natural light with the installation of a regular partitioning system or a solid wall. The extra light that these office partitions allow in can help save energy consumption by reducing lighting costs. Depending on the glazing of these partitions (single or double) they can also help reduce the amount of heating needed to heat the office.

The extra light in the office is also beneficial to employees and can help boost staff moral as lack of natural light has been commonly linked to depression.

Glazed office partitioning can also give an office a more modern touch and look highly professional, which is great when interviewing new employees or meeting with potential and existing clients.

One of the best parts about installing this type of partition is that just about anyone can move them safely and easily.
