Operable Walls in Hampshire
Operable walls — also known as movable walls, acoustic partitions or demountable wall systems — are floor-to-ceiling partition systems that allow large spaces to be quickly divided into smaller rooms. They are widely used in offices, schools, conference centres, hotel ballrooms, church halls and community buildings throughout Hampshire and the South.
ModernGlide operable walls are top-hung from a concealed overhead track, meaning there is no floor channel to trip over and no disruption to floor finishes. Panels stack neatly into a dedicated storage pocket when not in use, allowing the full space to be used as one. When required, panels are simply pulled out and locked together to create a fully sealed acoustic partition.
Our operable wall systems achieve acoustic ratings from Rw 33 dB through to Rw 59 dB — all independently tested and certified. This makes them suitable for the most demanding acoustic environments, including conference suites, university lecture halls, school examination rooms and corporate boardrooms in Hampshire. All systems are UK & European manufactured and available with a wide range of panel finishes, including fabric, veneer, laminate and glazed options.
Hinged Folding Partitions in Hampshire
Sliding folding partitions are a popular and cost-effective solution for dividing large spaces in schools, church halls, community centres, sports halls and hospitality venues throughout Hampshire. Unlike operable walls, which use individual solid panels, sliding folding partitions use hinged leaf panels that fold concertina-style to one or both sides of the opening.
ModernGlide's MG200 sliding folding partition system is top-hung from a concealed track and requires no floor fixings, making it ideal for retrofit installations in existing buildings. The system is available in a wide range of widths and heights, with acoustic performance up to Rw 42 dB — making it suitable for school halls, community buildings and multi-purpose spaces in Hampshirethat require a degree of sound separation without the premium cost of a full operable wall system.
Sliding folding partitions are particularly popular for school halls in Hampshire, where they allow large assembly halls to be divided into two or more teaching or activity spaces. They are also widely used in church halls, village halls and community centres, where the ability to quickly reconfigure the space for different events is essential.
Glazed Partition Systems in Hampshire
Glazed partition systems are increasingly popular in commercial offices, co-working spaces and corporate headquarters throughout Hampshire. They allow natural light to flow through a building while still providing acoustic separation between meeting rooms, offices and open-plan areas.
ModernGlide offers a range of glazed movable wall and partition systems for commercial interiors in Hampshire, including the MG500 flush glazed folding system, the MG600 floor-to-ceiling glazed partition, the MG700 top-hung glass sliding panels and the MG900 Crittall-style glazed sliding folding system. All systems are available with clear, frosted, tinted or patterned glass, and can be specified with acoustic interlayers for enhanced sound performance.
Replacement Operable Walls in Hampshire
Replace Any Brand — Upgrade to Modern Performance
Many buildings in Hampshire have movable wall and sliding folding partition systems that are approaching the end of their serviceable life. Older systems — particularly those installed in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s — often suffer from worn track components, damaged panel seals, stiff or seized mechanisms and deteriorating acoustic performance.
ModernGlide specialises in the replacement of existing operable wall systems with modern, higher-performance alternatives. We work with all brands and system types, and our survey team will assess your existing installation to recommend the most cost-effective replacement solution. In many cases, existing track and structural fixings can be reused, significantly reducing the cost of replacement.
