What should Maidstone offices plan for?
Maidstone has a broad mix of workplaces — town-centre offices, business parks, healthcare sites and light industrial units — and each needs a slightly different approach to fixing, acoustics and access.
For Maidstone offices that stay occupied during the works, we split the installation into zones so only a small part of the floor is affected at any one time.
How much do switchable smart glass partitions cost in Maidstone?
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.

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.

We return to adjust doors and closers after the building settles, and repairs or alterations are only a call away.

Questions about switchable smart glass partitions in Maidstone
How much do switchable smart glass partitions cost in Maidstone?
Our guide price for switchable smart glass partitions is £1,100–£1,700 per m², supply and install, excluding VAT. The final price for a Maidstone project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
Will our Maidstone landlord need to approve the partitions?
If you lease your Maidstone 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.
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.
What happens to smart glass if the power fails?
Most PDLC smart glass turns opaque when power is lost, because it needs power to stay clear. The room keeps its privacy and still receives diffused light. The glass remains safe laminated glass in either state, and it returns to clear automatically when power is restored.
