Banded Glass Partitioning

What Do Banded Glass Partitions Look Like?

Our black frame glass partitions have an aluminium or UVPC framework that runs around the perimeter of the glazed panels, with bars intersecting the glass. It’s these that create that distinct framed look.

At Glass Partitioning UK, we offer a range of frame colours – yes, black’s a classic, but Anthracite Grey might sit softer within your office. We can even get creative with custom banding designs, such as this banded glass partitioning installation where a smaller grid pattern was used to create the desired effect.

Don’t Forget the Doors

In line with the industrial style of your framed office glass partitions, we always recommend pairing it with a matching framed glass door. The framing creates a smooth finish where the horizontal bars meet with a distinct end to improve aesthetics, rather than an unfinished look that you’d have with a frameless glass door.

Handles, locks and other ironmongery are also important and something we’ll walk you through during your initial enquiry.

💡 Whilst generally glazed doors provide little to no acoustic benefit, we recommend a framed glass door with a drop seal at the bottom as this will have some influence over sound performance.

The Important Details

Are you as captivated as we are? Great! Here are some additional features for you to consider:

• Alongside selecting aluminium or a UPVC framework, you’ll need to choose from single glazing, double glazing or our premium acoustic glass depending on your needs.
• We install industrial framed partitions much like our other products: as one large pane. Our fitters then assemble the bars to form the framework on top.
• Choose from a range of colours to suit your design preferences. Please note that a UPVC framework is available in black. For alternative colours, you will need an aluminium frame which may come with additional charges.

Benefits of Banded Glass Walls

There’s a reason framed glass is a fan favourite! Here’s why:

• Privacy – The framework creates visual breaks that offer a level of privacy whilst still letting light flood your space.
• Design Flexibility – With options for different banding sizes and colours, you can customise your glass office partitions to suit your brand.
• Industrial Edge – The banded design complements exposed architectural elements, giving your space a contemporary, raw appeal.
• Durability – The robust frame offers additional support, making sure your partitions are more durable and resistant to wear and tear.

Our Installation Method

As the experts, we want your banded glass partitioning installation to be perfect. Here’s how we do that:

1. Install Glass

First, we secure the glass partitions in place to provide a solid foundation.

2. Frame Assembly

Next, we get to work by adding the aluminium and UPVC bars to the perimeter, building the framed finish. We’ll then start fitting the bars across the surface of your glass, creating that grid-like design.

3. Final Touches

Every joint and bar is carefully aligned to ensure the finish is nothing short of perfect.
