How do Cardiff buildings affect the install?
City-centre floors in Cardiff often come with raised access floors, high suspended ceilings and busy shared lobbies, so we plan deliveries, lift bookings and permits with the building manager before the team arrives.
Many Cardiff occupiers are on shorter leases or flexible terms, so we talk through demountable options and dilapidations at the start rather than leaving them for the end of the lease.
How much do frameless glass partitions cost in Cardiff?
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 do Cardiff businesses choose us?
Free survey in Cardiff
We measure the space, check ceilings, floors and services, and talk through how you want the office to work before anything is priced.
Little disruption
Panels arrive cut to survey sizes, so a typical meeting room front is installed in a day and occupied offices around it can keep working with minimal noise.
Covering all of South Glamorgan
Survey and installation teams cover Cardiff and the wider South Glamorgan area, including Penarth and Caerphilly.
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.
Typical frameless glass partitions projects we see in Cardiff include reception enclosures, corridor screens and studio and showroom offices. 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.

How do surveys work in Cardiff?
We cover Cardiff along with nearby Penarth, Caerphilly and Barry. Surveys are free and usually take under an hour for a typical office floor.
In Wales, the Building Regulations apply with Welsh-specific guidance, so we flag anything that may need Building Control — usually fire or escape-route changes — at survey stage.

Questions about frameless glass partitions in Cardiff
How much do frameless glass partitions cost in Cardiff?
Our guide price for frameless glass partitions is £280–£420 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Cardiff project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
Will our Cardiff landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Cardiff office, the lease will usually require landlord consent — often a licence for alterations — before partitions are installed. We supply drawings, specifications and method statements to support the application.
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.
