Saving Heating Costs and Environmental benefits

Also, although the cost of electricity is continually rising, because framed and frameless glass partitions maximise the use of natural light, the costs of electricity are reduced to a minimal level, so in a busy office with frequently opening and closing of entrance doors, this is a clean environmental and cost consideration.

Transparency Changing Glass Partition Installation

In Out Solutions also install glass dividers systems which include ‘frameless’ glass partitions and those styles in which the mere flick of a switch has the potential to alter the transparency of the partitions. Another cool feature of these glass partitions is that office doors fitted with these changing partitions, additionally we can also supply and install doors made from other more solid materials.
As standard, office frameless glass partitioning are usually manufactured of units of single glazed glass which are held in place with head and floor details – including joints filled with silicon mastic. Mastic stays flexible after curing and is ideal for office projects requiring the joined materials (surfaces) to have limited movement (glass partitions, building joints etc).

Office Fit Out Solutions – Automated Door Choices

If there is enough space, doors can be fitted on sliding rails, however, if there is only limited space, the doors can instead be fitted onto patch hinges, floor rails and framed and frameless systems (depending on whether the customers would prefer framed or frameless partitions). Automated doors can also be installed according to the wishes if individual customers.
There are several advantages to using room dividers as a means of dividing an office space into several separate cubicles, the biggest advantage that the use of such partitions can create a light and airy atmosphere, complimenting the aesthetic of modern and open office spaces. Frameless glass partitions can also be easily relocated highlighting another key advantage because virtually no (or at most minimal) structural modifications are required therefore installation costs are lower.

Manifestation films have become more popular in the last few years than the older and more traditional methods of frosting glass, such as durable etching, as this provides an option to change the design if required in the future.

Toughened Glass for Office Refurbishment and Safety

Toughened (or tempered glass) is a variety safety glass specifically processed to high safety standards by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with regular maufactured glass.

Tempering of the glass compressed the outer surfacesand the interior into tension which gives a unique property when smashed. Such huge stresses then cause the broken glassto crumble into small cubes. This is a huge benefit as the alterntative is the splintering of the normal glass into dangerous jagged shards. These granular and cubed chunks are far less likely to cause injury and toughened glass is widely renowned for it safety properties.

Toughened glass partitions are always a popular choice for the majority of our office partition projects and can be used in both framed and frameless systems. The high standards of safety and sleek looks sophisticated and enhances style.

Because of its security advantages, the installation of toughened/tempered glass provides extra scope when using glass partitions in the workplace.

Glass is suitable for all types of building, with the possible exception of listed buildings - here, in some instances it's appearance may be judged by a conservation officer as not being in "keeping with the age of the property". In these instances it is recommended to choose a mixture of solid and glass partitions in differering areas of the office design.
