What should Reading offices plan for?
Older stock across Reading — period buildings, converted warehouses and 1960s–80s blocks — tends to have uneven floors and varied ceiling heights, which is why every quote here follows a measured survey rather than a guess.
Many Reading 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 switchable smart glass partitions cost in Reading?
Price depends on the switchable glass area, the number of individually controlled zones, the control method and the electrical work needed to bring power and cabling to each panel. Typical lead time: 4–6 weeks. Guide prices, supply and install — fixed after a free survey.
What do you get with us in Reading?
Covering all of Berkshire
Survey and installation teams cover Reading and the wider Berkshire area, including Henley-on-Thames and Wokingham.
No blinds to maintain
There are no slats, cords or fabric to clean, repair or replace, and the clean glass line stays uncluttered whichever state the room is in.
Open by default
When privacy is not needed the glass is clear, so meeting rooms keep the open, connected feel that many organisations want across the floor.
Free survey in Reading
We measure the space, check ceilings, floors and services, and talk through how you want the office to work before anything is priced.
Typical switchable smart glass partitions projects we see in Reading include board and executive rooms, presentation suites and directors' offices. Switching can be linked to occupancy sensors, booking systems or a simple wall switch, so the room behaves the way your team actually uses it.

How much does switchable smart glass cost for office partitions?
Switchable smart glass partitions typically cost £1,100–£1,700 per m² supplied and installed, excluding VAT. The glass area, the number of separately switched zones, the control method and the electrical work all affect the price. Many clients use it on one elevation only to control cost. We confirm a fixed price after a free survey.
How does switchable smart glass work?
Smart glass contains a liquid crystal film between two layers of glass. When power is applied, the crystals align and the glass is clear. When power is off, they scatter light and the glass turns opaque white. The change takes seconds and is controlled by a switch, sensor or building system.
