Elevation-style shot square to a five-bay steel partition splitting a long open-plan floor, taken at dusk with the far room lit and the near room dark so the bay grid reads as a black lattice.

Partitions
A floor-to-ceiling steel grid of glass, doors and top lights that splits one large room in two and reads as architecture.
- Sightline
- 25 mm
- Per run
- 6000 x 3400 mm
- Lead time
- 7–8 wks
- Door leaves to 1100 x 2600 mm in the grid
- To 37 dB Rw with acoustic glass and seals
- Bay widths set at survey, 400 to 1400 mm
The whole partitions square on and filling the frame, in the bay grid, no door configuration, shot level in flat overcast light against a plain wall so the proportion and the frame-to-glass ratio can be read without perspective. Unit at 3000 mm, jointed on site to 6000 mm per run.
3:4
Close detail of the meeting line at eye level in raking light, tight enough that the joint and the seal are legible and the Hot-rolled steel, 25 mm sightline; 40 mm at mullions sightline can be measured off the frame, with the background thrown out of focus.
1:1
The hand-level detail: lever on rose photographed in use on the textured powder coat, 213 ral finish, close enough to show the surface texture and the fixing, with a hand on the handle for scale.
4:3
From inside the room looking out through the partitions, the unit open where it opens, late afternoon light on the floor, so the product is seen the way it is lived with rather than the way it is sold.
16:9
The partitions at dusk from outside, closed, the room lit behind the glass, so the finish and the glass line read against the light.

Description
A partition is a whole wall in steel: a grid of bays with door leaves and top lights set into it, welded and finished as one piece. Runs are delivered in welded sections up to 3000 mm, then jointed on site to 6000 mm. Head and base channels take 10 mm of building movement. Bay rhythm is set at survey, so mullions land where you want them rather than where standard sizes fall. Mullions run 40 mm; every other sightline holds 25 mm. Acoustic infill can be added at the perimeter.
Specify it when
You are splitting one large room into two — a kitchen from a snug, an office from a meeting room — and the division should read as architecture, not as a stud wall with a door in it.

Straight-on shot of a pair of black steel doors closed across a kitchen-to-garden-room opening, low winter sun raking the floor so the 25 mm sections read as thin dark lines against the light.

Steel-framed doors
Wide shot from a dark hallway looking through a full-height fixed steel screen into a bright white studio, one figure out of focus beyond the glass to give the 3400 mm height a human scale.

Screens
Tight three-quarter view of a semicircular steel arch springing from its jamb, side-lit so both the dressed weld line and the powder-coated curve of the rolled section stay readable.
