What should County Antrim projects plan for?

Parking and loading in central Belfast can be restricted, so glass deliveries are booked into agreed slots and panels are sized to fit the lifts and stairwells we measured on survey.

Across Belfast we see a lot of mixed-use space — offices next to workshops, clinics or showrooms — where partitions have to deal with noise, dust or fire separation as well as privacy.

How much do folding & sliding partition walls cost in County Antrim?

£900–£1,600 per m² of wall + VAT

Acoustic rating, wall height, panel finish, manual or electric operation, and whether a new steel support is needed above the ceiling for the track set most of the price. Typical lead time: 6–10 weeks. Guide prices, supply and install — fixed after a free survey.

Why choose us in County Antrim?

Useful acoustic separation

Well-sealed panels allow two meetings to run side by side, with sound reduction far greater than curtains or folding screens.

We measure the space, check ceilings, floors and services, and talk through how you want the office to work before anything is priced.

Finishes that match

Panels can be veneered, fabric-faced, whiteboard or glazed so the wall looks like part of the room when closed rather than a temporary divider.

Covering all of County Antrim

Survey and installation teams cover Belfast and the wider County Antrim area, including Belfast and Lisburn.

The track and support are the critical part of the design. Panels are heavy, so the track normally hangs from steelwork fixed to the slab, and the ceiling has to be detailed around it. A stack bay is needed for the panels when the wall is open, which takes up floor space at one end. Finishes include laminate, veneer, fabric, whiteboard and glazed panels, and a pass door can be built into the run. Lead times are longer because each system is engineered to the room dimensions.

Acoustic performance	Approx. Rw 40–55 dB depending on panel and seals (lab)

Folding & Sliding Partition Walls in County Antrim: FAQs

How soon can you start on a Belfast project?

Typical lead time for folding & sliding partition walls is 6–10 weeks from signed-off drawings, mostly because materials are made to measure. Installation itself is usually a matter of days for a typical office, and we can phase work around a Belfast office that stays open.

Do you cover areas near Belfast?

Yes. As well as Belfast we regularly cover Belfast, Lisburn and Newtownabbey, plus the rest of County Antrim and Northern Ireland. Survey and installation teams are arranged regionally.

How much does a folding partition wall cost?

Folding and sliding acoustic partition walls typically cost £900–£1,600 per m² of wall supplied and installed, excluding VAT. Manual systems around Rw 40–45 dB sit at the lower end; high-performance, electric or very tall systems sit at the top. Support steelwork and a pass door add to it. We confirm a fixed price after a free survey.

How soundproof are sliding partition walls?

Office operable walls typically achieve around Rw 40–55 dB in lab tests, depending on panel construction and seals. That lets two meetings run side by side, although loud presentations may still be faintly heard. Sealing the ceiling void above the track and the floor below is essential to get close to the lab figure.
