Frameless glass wall systems are a favorite among homeowners and commercial designers alike. Whenever unframed glass is used for a partition, it imparts a chic modern feel to the space. For aesthetic appeal, it’s hard to beat frameless glass partitions for office cubicles, residential room dividers, and contemporary conference rooms. It’s simplicity harmonizes with many modes of décor, and it adds sparkle and shine without clashing with any color scheme.
However, an attractive look is not the only advantage of a frameless glass wall partition. This type of room divider is also easy to care for and clean. For one thing, the elimination of framing does away with many nooks and crannies where dust and grime can build up. If you choose clear, tinted, or back painted glass for the frameless partition, it will also offer a smooth exterior than can readily be wiped clean and disinfected. Since they’re easy to maintain, a frameless glass walls system can add to the beauty and functionality of your space for years.
Frameless glass wall systems are usually built from tempered glass. Tempered glass is much more durable than annealed glass, and cleanup is safer and easier if a break does happen. To ensure the stability and rigidity of the partition, we generally use 1/2” thick glass. At times, a client might need something stronger than tempered glass due to specific safety concerns. Possible alternatives include laminated glass, clear Plexiglas, and colored, opaque acrylic sheets. You can consult with an ABC glass specialist about which material is best for your application.
Frameless glass walls can be fastened to existing sheetrock walls or installed as free standing panels. Since framing is not present, they are kept in place by channel and/or small metal clips. Also, frameless partitions can be partial walls or can extend from floor to ceiling. When numerous panels are joined together, caulk can be used at the joints for a smooth transition and flowing look.
Frameless partition walls are an inviting alternative to drywall in both residential and business settings. Frosted, patterned, and back painted glass can be used to create privacy partitions, such as:
