Planning switchable smart glass partitions in Corby: local points
Smaller floorplates in Corby make every metre count, so we often recommend glass that keeps daylight moving across the office while still giving managers a private room.
In Corby, 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.

Snagging and aftercare

We measure the space, check ceilings, floors and services, and talk through how you want the office to work before anything is priced.
Privacy in seconds
Rooms switch from clear to opaque instantly, so interviews, screen sharing and confidential meetings can happen without drawing blinds or applying permanent film.
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.

How do surveys work in Corby?
Corby sits about 52 miles from our Birmingham base. Surveys are booked at a time that suits you, including early mornings, and the same project contact stays with you through to installation.
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.

Corby switchable smart glass partitions FAQs
How much do switchable smart glass partitions cost in Corby?
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 Corby project depends on the measured size, doors, glass or board specification and access, and is fixed after the free survey.
How soon can you start on a Corby 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 Corby 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.
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.
