Single Glazed Screens

Single glazed aluminium systems are fast becoming the new standard for a more aesthetic look.

Single Glazed Screens

Customisable Georgian Glazing

Using the same channels as the standard single glazed partitioning systems but with the addition of 25mm or 30mm wide Georgian flat bars bonded to the inner and outer glass surfaces the result is a striking appearance which can be personalised to create different pane sizes. Whilst black is the standard we can also supply the system in any RAL colour with toughened and laminated glass offering additional acoustic properties.

Acoustics

All of our single glazed partitioning systems are designed to work with 10mm and 12mm toughened safety glass which offer a degree of acoustic performance. We also offer 10.8mm and 12.8mm acoustic laminated glass for improved acoustics up to 38dB which can be combined with framed and unframed doors with acoustic gaskets and drop-down door sills, ideal for use in meeting rooms and reception screens where noise transfer can pose an issue.

Many projects combine a mix of toughened and laminated glass screens, which look the same but offer different acoustic properties enabling you to keep the aesthetics consistent without adding cost where it’s not necessary.

INTER PANEL GLAZING JOINTS

Glass partition screens appear frameless with dry joint inserts. These have better appearance than silicone joints and enable the system to be dismantled or reconfigured with minimal disturbance. Installation time is also improved which benefits cost. Our single and double glazed systems can both be installed using dry joint technology.  For single glazed systems the flat aluminium painted bars are adhered to both sides of the glass where the panels meet so the glass joints are not visible. For double glazed systems the bars are applied to only one skin of glass so the second skin has visible dry joints. The bars can be applied to either the outer or inner glass skin depending on the customers wish. With Fire rated systems the glass panel joints require a ceramic fire tape to the centre with intumescent mastic capping to each face. This conforms to the fire rating required and glass thickness used but is then covered by the aluminium flat bars to each side so becomes invisible.

MANIFESTATION

The minimum DDA requirement for commercial glazing is 2 levels of manifestation between 850-1000mm and 1400-1600mm from the floor. With these systems the applied bars negate the need for this as they already provide a visible barrier, however, in addition to adhering vertical and horizontal bars we can also add manifestation for privacy where its required. In the main, most schemes are divided in height into 3 or 4 equal panels with one or possibly two rows having etched or reeded manifestation when needed.
