Glass office walls in modern design

In a modern office partition, glass office walls are the best possible option for dividing space. This is a durable, safe, and easy-to-maintain option, with the help of which it is easy to create an open space format, popular in Kenya. Stationary partitions are more affordable and easier to install than capital walls because their construction does not require lengthy approval processes.

 

Transparent office structures are made of various types of glass. An aluminum profile is used as a base, complemented by reliable stainless-steel fittings. The partition panel in the office has high strength due to its thickness (from 10 to 12 mm). Large-sized structures are assembled using connectors, and the glass is firmly fixed at the joints.

 

Glass is a universal material, skillful handling of which allows you to create many options for office interior design. Based on the type and purpose of the room you are equipping, glass partitions are made matte, transparent, or tinted; inscriptions and logos are applied to them. The structure is installed in an aluminum profile.

 

Wallpaper Kenya works with many corporate customers, developing partition concepts for different types of office premises on tailor-made orders.

Purpose of glass walls for the office

Plasterboard or brick walls in a building require approval of redevelopment long-term construction work. But glass sashes can be quickly installed without dust and dirt, in addition, they are thinner and can be dismantled if necessary. Despite their visual fragility, they are very durable, which allows you to use them safely, without fear of damage from impacts, or vibration.

 

All-glass office walls are used to enclose meeting areas and individual employee workstations. It is convenient to use glass sections to zone rooms for mass events: exhibitions, conferences, or training. They are installed in business centers, and coworking spaces to create comfortable work spaces without visually narrowing the space. The products are also in demand for installation in shopping centers, entertainment centers, educational institutions, clinics, and beauty salons.

 

Glass-filled structures can be stationary or mobile, solid, or with doors of different configurations. Depending on the installation location, the target profile of the room, and the functional requirements, it is easy to choose the optimal model.

Benefits of office glass partition walls

Easy-to-see-through office glass walls and doors have a positive effect on the employees’ performance. Therefore you should maintain a comfortable atmosphere in your workspace by creating an open space effect. But also the ability of glass panels to transmit light reduces lighting costs, as the sun freely enters the office. Finally, the products are resistant to mechanical deformation and are environmentally friendly and safe to operate.

 

Other advantages of the designs:

• The glass can be made matte or tinted, mirrored to limit visibility, or, on the contrary, leave the wall transparent to increase visibility.
• Glass walls have good soundproofing properties, so they can be used as fencing for meeting rooms, waiting areas or areas for communication with clients, and executive offices.
• A glass partition in an office does not require complicated maintenance. It is easy to wash with household chemicals and disinfect. The structure retains its original appearance.
• The structures look aesthetically pleasing and easily fit into the modern interior design of an office or retail space.

 

We install glass sashes quickly, using reliable components. Therefore, we guarantee that they will serve for a long time and without failure.

What glass office partitions to order

Depending on your requests, we make a laconic or brighter design of the glass filling. It can be transparent, without decorative elements, or with decorations: photo printing, engraving of patterns, matte and mirror inserts.

 

In the installation, we use tempered glass or triplex. These are highly durable materials that are not afraid of impacts, jolts, or vibrations. A special film on the surface eliminates injuries, even if the glass is damaged.

The price of office glass partitions depends on their size, material, and glass design. When choosing glass partitions, special attention is paid to the type of glass, since both the visual and safety characteristics of the structure depend on it. Let’s take a closer look at the main types of glass used in partitions.

Ordinary (tempered) glass office partition walls

 

This is a standard type of glass that has undergone a tempering process – a heat treatment to increase its strength. Tempered glass, when broken, breaks into many small, blunt-edged pieces. This significantly reduces the risk of cuts and injuries compared to regular glass. This makes tempered glass a preferred option for use in public places and homes with children.

Tempered glass office partition walls

Tempered glass is specially treated to make it 4-5 times stronger than regular glass. This is achieved by rapidly cooling the glass surface after heating it to a high temperature. As a result of this treatment, tempered glass, when broken, breaks into many small cube-shaped fragments, which minimizes the risk of serious cuts and injuries.

Laminated glass wall

 

Laminated glass consists of two or more layers of glass bonded together with a layer of transparent polymer film. When broken, the glass fragments remain glued to the film, which not only prevents them from falling and scattering but also maintains the integrity of the partition. This property makes laminated glass ideal for places with high security requirements, such as banks, and schools, or when constructing protective barriers.

Smart glass wall

Smart glass, or intelligent glass, can change its light transmittance properties when exposed to electricity, heat, or light. Although the primary purpose of smart glass is to regulate privacy and control light, it can also contribute to security. For example, certain types of smart glass may use laminated technology to provide additional protection against breakage.

 

Each of these types of glass has its unique characteristics and applications. When choosing glass for partitions, it is important to consider not only aesthetic preferences but also safety requirements to ensure the reliability and durability of the structure without compromising the health and safety of users.

 

For installation, we use reliable metal fittings, the color of which can be selected based on the design of the glass and the room itself. We offer products from various manufacturers, among which you can choose the components that are optimal in design and budget.

Accessories and installation features of glass office partition walls

The mobility or stability of the structure is determined by high-quality fittings and components. These components include:

• fastening systems;
• fixing details;
• guides;
• profiles;
• loops;
• decorative overlays.

If you purchase a sliding mechanism, you may need locks, limiters, carriages with rollers, etc.

Installing glass partitions does not take much time. The standard for installing a frame model is to use an aluminum profile on which the product is mounted. In the case of frameless glazing, glass panels are attached to the floor and ceiling using guides. This looks incredibly stylish, for example, in a minimalist or loft space. At the same time, the price per m2 for solid glass partitions in an office is 25% higher than for framed versions.

Advantages of glass partitions for the office

Glass walls, especially with translucent material, visually increase the space, which has a beneficial effect on employees and their performance. Also glass products:

• let in natural light if we are talking about a transparent canvas, or, on the contrary, make the room dark if the surface is mirrored on one or both sides;
• they keep out external noise, which is why glass structures are often used to separate management offices, client areas, or meeting rooms;
• retain their original appearance for a long time – for this, light cleaning with special products is enough.

Zoning ” open space ” with glass structures is a good idea. It creates personal space to monitor the work of subordinates.

Frameless Glass

Frameless glass office partitions are structures made of solid glass from floor to ceiling. The structures are used for zoning premises when the construction of load-bearing walls is not cost-effective. With the help of such systems, offices and shopping malls allocate separate retail areas and offices, sanitary zones, etc.

 

The production of frameless glass partitions is carried out using the following components:

• glass panels;
• clamping profile that secures it;
• fastenings.

Frameless glass partitions are made of tempered glass or triplex. After tempering, the material acquires additional strength and increased heat resistance. Glass can be matte, colored, tinted, or decorated with ornaments, patterns, logos, etc.

Additionally, systems can be equipped with:

• ceiling-mounted structures, relevant for suspended ceilings;
• stainless steel supporting columns.

Framed Glass Office Walls

Sliding Glass Walls

Sliding partitions for an office are the best option to make a small room comfortable and functional. Such structures allow for effective zoning of the office without the cost of repairs and redevelopment. Partitions with glass sections look modern and stylish, and office employees will certainly appreciate the convenience and noiselessness of sliding doors.

Manufacturing custom sliding partitions for offices is one of the important areas of our work. We use only the latest technologies to manufacture high-quality sliding structures.

Sliding office partitions equipped with glass sections are manufactured using aluminum profiles and fittings. It is also possible to manufacture all-glass (frameless) structures. They are made of tempered, impact-resistant glass or triplex. Unlike ordinary glass such materials ensure safety in the office.

 

To create a silent sliding mechanism, lower and upper guides are used. The system of sections in partitions can be presented in the form of a suspended structure, a compartment, or a book. Partitions can be opened to one side of the wall or both sides of the center.

Advantages of using sliding office partitions

Sliding office partitions have many advantages when used in small spaces. Only this type of zoning can help preserve maximum free space when organizing workplaces. Sliding partitions allow you to optimize space taking into account the specifics of the company’s work and individual employees.

Partitions with glass sections can also have a decorative effect. An office decorated with them will look modern and stylish. And the company’s staff will be able to work productively, having the opportunity to see each other.

These walls can be moved to create different configurations and spaces.

Privacy partitions

Privacy office partitions made of glass are an effective room design with wave-like elegance. The frosted glass has a fine, homogeneous surface that is a visual asset for every terrace. An innovative solution is the use of privacy partitions made of glass in a wave-like shape. This advanced method not only enables efficient room division but also combines aesthetics and functionality. The gentle curves of the partitions create a feeling of movement and elegance that makes the room visually appealing.

 

Privacy partitions not only create clear boundaries between different areas but also ensure the necessary privacy for meetings, discussions, and concentration at work. The use of high-quality acrylic glass and resource-saving manufacturing processes contributes to environmental protection. By combining aesthetics, functionality, and sustainability, the glass partition offers a first-class solution for your needs.

Privacy glass can be used to create semi-transparent or opaque walls when needed.
