Partition systems can be installed a variety of styles:
There are many different basic visual style of partition available, but the three most common styles are below.
- Solid – This is as simple as it sounds, a solid partition with no windows or glazing in it.
- Half glazed -This is a partition that incorporates some glazing, usually a window (or windows) in the partition; these could be a module wide and about door handle to door head high with solid partition below and above this, or just a simple small window.
- Fully glazed – This is a full height glazed partition, either formed using a partitioning system with full height window mullions or a premium frameless system incorporating a minimalistic frame with silicon gaskets at the glazing joints.
- The styles shown below:
- Are finished with paint or vinyl
- 100mm laminate skirting fitted as standard
- Framework available in white, grey or SAA (silver) as a standard, but with any RAL colour possible as a special.
- The window modules are available as single glazed, or double glazed, with or without blinds.
