What should East Sussex projects plan for?
Parking and loading in central Brighton 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.
In Brighton, installations are often completed in a few days, and we can usually start on site soon after drawings are signed off because the survey answers the practical questions early.
How much do switchable smart glass partitions cost in East Sussex?
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.
Why choose us in East Sussex?
Work around your hours
Evening and weekend installation can be arranged for occupied Brighton offices, keeping disruption to a minimum.
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.
Tested systems, documented
We use manufacturers' tested partition systems and hand over the relevant performance and test evidence at completion.
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.
Smart glass solves a common conflict in office design: people want meeting rooms to feel open, but they also need privacy for interviews, screen presentations and sensitive calls. With switchable glass, the wall stays clear by default and turns opaque at the press of a wall switch, a room booking panel or an occupancy sensor. The opaque state still lets diffused light through, so the room never goes dark, and when it switches back the glass is as clear as a standard laminated panel.
Key specifications

| Power | Low-voltage AC via transformer; low running consumption per m² |
| Controls | Wall switch, remote, occupancy sensor or building management system integration |
| Projection | Opaque state can act as a rear-projection screen with suitable projectors |
Surveys across East Sussex
Survey visits across East Sussex — including Brighton, Brighton and Hove — are free and carry no obligation. We measure, photograph and note services so the quote is accurate first time.
In England, partition works that affect fire safety or means of escape fall under the Building Regulations, so we flag anything that may need Building Control at survey stage.
How does a project run?
Measure and assess
We take accurate measurements on site in Brighton, check the ceiling void and floor, and agree what the new layout must achieve.
Drawings and quote
We prepare drawings and an itemised fixed price, adjusting the design until it works for your team and budget.
Production and logistics
Made-to-measure panels are produced and we book deliveries, lifts and parking around your building.
Install and sign-off
We fit the partitions with minimal disruption, complete snagging and walk you through the finished space.

Switchable Smart Glass Partitions in East Sussex: FAQs
Do you install switchable smart glass partitions in Brighton?
Yes. We survey, supply and install switchable smart glass partitions throughout Brighton and the wider East Sussex area, including Brighton and Hove. The survey is free and you receive a fixed, written quote before any work is booked.
How soon can you start on a Brighton project?
Typical lead time for switchable smart glass partitions is 4–6 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 Brighton office that stays open.
Does smart glass make a room soundproof?
No. Switchable glass changes how the room looks, not how much sound passes through. Its acoustic performance is similar to other single glazed laminated glass, roughly Rw 34–38 dB in lab tests. For confidential rooms, combine smart glass with acoustic seals, sealed doors and attention to the ceiling void.
Does smart glass use a lot of electricity?
No. Running consumption is low per square metre, and the glass only draws power while it is clear. A typical meeting room uses a small fraction of the energy of its lighting. The main electrical cost is the one-off installation of the supply and controls.
