Building management teams are always trying to find a way to expand occupancy as well as revenue within a rented office space. On the same hand, they are also trying to reduce running costs to a minimum.
It can be hard to meet the needs of different corporate clients without leaving one or more of those goals by the wayside. The proper office floor plan will provide organisation for one but be unsuitable for another. Which means that commercial building owners could see properties with regular vacancies.
Which is why office glass partitioning can be so beneficial. Partitions offer a number of advantages, particularly over drywall or sealed glass partitions.
Quick Configuration
Perhaps the biggest benefit of glass partitions is that they can be moved into new positions with little effort. Having portable glass partitions can mean creating a new office layout in no time, appealing to different potential tenants.
Spaces that require small cubicles can be transformed into something more open that offers a meeting area or conference room. All of which uses those portable, glass partitions. There is no doubt that this gives commercial building owners a greater level of versatility that they would struggle achieving using a different partition material.
Better Acoustics
With more modern open-plan workspaces, there can be a lot of noise. The acoustics can create difficult work settings and using drywall or some other partitioning material can be used, though there is a compromising of the open-plan structure.
By using glass partitions, building managers can keep ambient noise in larger spaces at a minimum. All without having to compromise the feel and look of that open-floor plan. By simply using half-height partitions, ambient noise can be reduced drastically in the most problematic of areas without losing the positives of an open-floor plan.
Low Cost
Building managers are always looking to make positive changes that won’t cost a lot to pull off. No matter what you are hoping to do, glass walls can be an effective way to make those changes at a low cost.
In-house maintenance should be able to make the installation quickly. Even if you don’t have on-site staff, a local expert should be able to pull the task off in no time. These partitions can be moved far more quickly than traditional partitions, which means no special tools are required to do the job.
