Details and guide pricesBlack-framed glass partitions
A black-framed glass partition is an internal glass wall with slim matt black aluminium or steel-look frames dividing it into a grid of panes, often with horizontal transoms. It gives the warehouse or studio look many offices now want, with the same safety glass as any other system.
Guide price: £450 to £720 per m² of glazed wall, fitted, ex VAT, depending on the number of panes. Doors are priced separately.

How do black framed glass partitions work?
We build black-framed walls in thermally stable aluminium sections finished in a fine matt black powder coat, so they are lighter, quicker to install and more affordable than solid steel while keeping very slim sightlines. Transom heights and pane widths are drawn to suit your room rather than a fixed module.
They work especially well in converted buildings with exposed brick, timber or concrete, in creative agencies, and anywhere a meeting room needs to look like part of the architecture rather than a box dropped onto the floor.
When are black framed glass partitions the right choice?
- Warehouse and mill conversions
- Agencies, studios and showrooms
- Statement meeting rooms and boardrooms

Black-framed glass partitions: questions
Are black-framed partitions steel or aluminium?
Most are aluminium with a steel-look profile, which keeps cost and weight down. Solid steel is available when a project needs it, at a higher price and longer lead time.
Do black frames make a room darker?
Slightly, because the bars block a little light, but far less than a solid wall. Keeping the transom above eye level and the panes wide keeps the room bright.
Can black-framed walls be fire rated?
Yes. Fire-rated black-framed screens and doors are available for corridors and protected routes, using tested glass and frame combinations.
Will black frames show fingerprints and scratches?
Matt powder coat hides marks well and cleans with a damp cloth. Scratches can be touched in with the matching RAL paint.
