Transformable partitions for office orthe sales area is an ideal tool for combining or zoning spaces, when it is necessary to convert a small room into a system of mini-offices or a conference room in a few minutes.
A large variety of graduates in our timetransforming partitions can be divided into two classes. The first one is represented by sliding walls consisting of separate panels. If necessary, they can be pushed manually in turn from the storage area (parking). The second class includes sliding partitions of the same panels, but connected to each other by hinges. For such a design they were called "accordions". They can be installed with both ceiling and floor rail. In contrast, sliding walls are attached exclusively to the ceiling. Proceeding from this, their indisputable advantage is a parking place, which can be located anywhere, for example, around the corner, in a niche or other place convenient for the user.
Есть трансформируемые офисные перегородки, which are made in such a way that they can be removed upward, namely in the over-ceiling space. However, they are often unable to provide sufficient sound insulation, and in modern sliding walls it sometimes reaches 52 dB. This figure is comparable to the soundproofing of brickwork, in which it is 56 dB.
Transformable partitions are based onguide rail with parking area. It is always securely attached to the ceiling, as it carries the entire load on itself. At the same time the floor remains practically unused. Only those parts of the locks are fastened on it, with the help of which the partitions themselves are fixed.
Sections can be used asswinging open doors, because their lower mount is made in the form of a bolt. Such a lock can fix the partition in the desired position, and also gives it the ability to rotate up to 180 degrees. Special openings are made in the floor for fixing the bolts, which are closed with covers having a spring mechanism. Such plugs are necessary in order to prevent dust and dirt from entering the structure itself.
Модульная структура трансформирующих перегородок allows you to design parking areas for a specific width of the canvas, as well as almost any configuration of the room. Sections are attached to the rail, and he, in turn, to the ceiling bearing structure, which is held on the ceiling by studs, which allows you to set it strictly horizontally and to a predetermined height.
The advantages of transforming partitions include the following factors:
● ease of use;
● rational organization of space zoning;
● reliability and durability;
● compactness when storing (parking) sashes;
● the ability to use individual panels as hinged doors for ventilation or passage.
As for the shortcomings, then they can be attributedthe complexity of installation and the relatively low degree of sound insulation, which, however, can be improved by using special retractable seals. Experts recommend to design the partition in advance, as well as install it before the general decoration of the room begins.
PVC is considered the most democratic basis formanufacturing partitions. Plastic profiles are great for decoration of both budget and expensive interiors. In addition, they are easy to maintain, and their resistance to high humidity greatly expands the scope of their application. PVC partitions can be installed not only in the bedroom, but in the kitchen and in the bathroom.
Каркасы для перегородок зачастую изготавливают из aluminum, as it is a very flexible and reliable material, besides it is highly resistant to deformation. Such a profile can be used separately, but sometimes it is combined with plastic or wood, when structures need to be given special strength and rigidity.
Most often, such structures are installed inshopping complexes where they play the role of shop windows. Perhaps this is the best option to attract a large number of buyers. It is not uncommon now that, when the outlet operates, the transforming partitions are fully folded. As a result, the buyer can freely enter the store’s territory without looking for a door or bypassing long windows. At the end of the working day, the partitions stretch and thus close the sales area.
Трансформируемые панели, сделанные из стекла, can be used not only indoors, but also outside. In the first case, they are used to form separate zones, and in the second, as front partitions. It should be noted that for the production of such panels, performed on any basis, be it wood, plastic or metal, the type of glass does not matter much, since the framework itself is a guarantee of the strength of the partition.
Another thing - all-glass panels.For their manufacture use only the safest materials, which include triplex and tempered glass. To ensure their reliability, you can compare their characteristics. The reason for the safety and durability of a material such as triplex is that a special film is glued in between two layers of glass and if the panel is damaged, the fragments do not fly away, but remain fixed on it. The reliability of tempered glass also causes no doubts, since it has surface tension and when it is broken, fragments with non-sharp edges are formed.
The design of such panels is much more complicated.than glass. However, elegant and lightweight fabrics cannot provide reliable sound insulation of the newly created room. Usually their figure does not exceed 12 dB. In soft partitions, which are equipped with special anthers, sound insulation reaches 20-30 dB. In order to significantly improve this figure, you will need to complicate the design, as well as increase the weight and thickness of the canvases.
Например, для повышения звукоизоляции с 40 до 50 dB will need at least double the weight of the canvas, which will be 50-60 kg / m². Mobile walls can be considered real heavyweights in this area. They provide sound resistance of 53 dB, but their transformation is much more difficult: not only do you need to put each module in place, you also need to tightly press the web together and fix it with a special key. It is very important to remember that installation of acoustic partitions should be entrusted only to professionals, since improper installation can significantly reduce the sound insulation properties of the structure.
Not so long ago, production was adjustedtransformable partitions that are likely to resemble a curtain. They consist of a hidden frame, covered with several layers of material with good sound insulation properties, and finished with eco-leather. When folded, their surface is a soft wave, while its minimum size is no more than 20% of the width of the opening itself. Perhaps this is the most comfortable and beautiful transformer, allowing it to be used both in office interiors and in a cafe or even in an apartment!
