MG500 Straight Sliding Glazed Acoustic Doors – Seamless Light, Style, and Sound Control

Our latest installation of the MG500 Straight Sliding Glazed Acoustic Doors demonstrates the perfect fusion of acoustic performance and modern interior design.

Our latest installation of the MG500 Straight Sliding Glazed Acoustic Doors demonstrates the perfect fusion of acoustic performance and modern interior design. This project for Suntory features one impressive opening at 5,000mm x 2,700mm and another at 2,000mm x 2,700mm — providing expansive access between spaces when open, and excellent acoustic separation when closed.

The MG500 system is designed for situations where maximum light transmission is required alongside meaningful acoustic performance. The flush-glazed panels allow natural light to pass freely through the partition, maintaining the open feel of a space even when it is acoustically divided.

The straight sliding configuration is ideal for situations where space for stacking folded panels is limited, or where a simpler, more streamlined appearance is preferred. The panels slide smoothly along the overhead track and can be operated by a single person.

At 5,000mm wide and 2,700mm tall, the larger opening in this installation is an impressive engineering achievement. The panels are engineered to precise tolerances to ensure smooth, reliable operation at this scale, and the acoustic seals are carefully designed to maintain performance across the full height and width of the opening.

The acoustic performance of the MG500 system — Rw up to 42 dB — is achieved through a combination of glazed panel mass, acoustic seals at all edges, and careful attention to flanking paths. Our installation teams are trained to ensure that the system is installed in a way that achieves the specified acoustic performance in practice, not just in theory.

This installation for Suntory demonstrates how the MG500 system can be used to create a premium, flexible office environment that meets the demanding requirements of a modern commercial client. The result is a space that is both visually impressive and acoustically effective.
