The Convenience Of Office Partition Walls

Many companies are finding that it is much less expensive to provide their employees with working space using office partition walls rather than a number of large rooms. This allows the use of a huge space to accommodate a number of people while giving them a sense of privacy.

There are a large number of options available with these walls such as creating cubicles, reception stations, work spaces and call centers. These panels are flame resistant so there is no danger of fire and there is a choice of coverings that will blend in very well with the surroundings. The average panel is 1-3/4 inches thick and feature an interior wood frame with a honeycomb core covered with a heavy liner for support.

The panels have a trim that adds support and adjustable feet which allow placing on even or uneven surfaces. There are a number of features to accommodate computers and other machines with non-electric, electric, and pass-through units. The electric and non-electric ones can be joined together to accommodate needed power. This makes it easy to choose exactly what is needed in different areas.

Raceways allow access for electric wiring and data cables while, at the same time concealing the wiring from view. This raceway has modular electric and cable openings, which accommodates phones and other necessary equipment. This makes it very easy to take care of the needed power sources.

Good partition walls or temporary office walls will not only use the available space efficiently but will help create privacy and reduce noise. One very popular model is the call center type which can be used as an operator station, testing area, carrel or for other purposes. These units have a 60" high back and 42" short side panels. A number can be purchased to create rows and aisles if desired.

Using office partition walls is cost effective, allowing a company to utilize space while providing good work spaces. In addition, they are convenient in that they can be moved whenever a separate arrangement is needed such as enlarging a space. This is also convenient for a supervisor as he or she can easily contact an employee by simply walking down the aisle between the cubicles or other locations.
