What should Dundee projects plan for?
Plenty of Dundee businesses are growing into space they already lease, so we often reconfigure existing partitions and add new rooms in the same project.
Across Dundee 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 frameless glass partitions cost in Dundee?
Glass thickness, panel height, the number and type of doors, and whether the head fixes to a soffit or needs bracing above a suspended ceiling drive most of the cost. Typical lead time: 2–4 weeks. Guide prices, supply and install — fixed after a free survey.
Why choose us in Dundee?
Tidy, protected sites
Floors and finishes are protected, waste is removed and the area is cleaned before handover.
Simple to maintain
Flat glass faces and minimal hardware leave few dust traps, and a damaged panel can be replaced on its own without disturbing the sections either side.
Covering all of Dundee
Survey and installation teams cover Dundee and the wider Dundee area, including Dundee and Broughty Ferry.
Lower cost per m²
Fewer extrusions and simpler fixing make frameless the most economical glazed system, leaving more of the fit-out budget for furniture, acoustics or an extra meeting room.
The trade-off is acoustic. A 10mm toughened panel will reduce normal speech but will not contain raised voices, and the joints are weaker than the glass itself. Upgrading to 12.8mm acoustic laminate closes much of that gap for a modest extra cost per m². Frameless rooms also need a solid, level fixing at the head; where a suspended ceiling is in the way we add bracing to the slab or a small bulkhead. Doors can be frameless glass on patch fittings, or framed aluminium where you want better seals and a closer.

Frameless Glass Partitions in Dundee: FAQs
How soon can you start on a Dundee project?
Typical lead time for frameless glass partitions is 2–4 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 Dundee office that stays open.
Can you work out of hours at our Dundee office?
Yes. Evening and weekend installation can be arranged in Dundee so the office keeps running. Out-of-hours working usually adds a percentage to the labour cost, which is shown clearly on the quote.
Are frameless glass partitions soundproof?
No glazed partition is soundproof, and frameless single glazing gives moderate privacy. Expect around Rw 32–35 dB from 10mm toughened and Rw 38–40 dB from 12.8mm acoustic laminate in lab tests, with a few decibels lost on site. That stops normal conversation being understood next door, but confidential rooms are better served by double glazing.
Do frameless glass partitions need manifestation?
Yes. Approved Document K and the Workplace Regulations 1992 require clear glass in office partitions to be marked so people can see it. Manifestation sits in two zones, 850–1000mm and 1400–1600mm above floor level. It can be simple dots or bands, frosted film or a branded design, and it is included in every installation we carry out.
