Movable walls with glass recesses

Let light in by placing a glass recess in your movable walls. The feeling of open plan is combined with possibilities of privacy and a working sound environment. Winab provides movable walls with glass for most purposes in a wide range of design options and glass types.

 

The lift for interior environments

A wall with recessed glass gives an architectural lift to interior environments. The glass provides space and an attractive overall picture and not least opportunities to take advantage of the light from the external environment or nearby premises.

The glass is a tough, durable material that is easy to keep clean. The material also meets the requirements regarding sustainability, as it is completely recyclable. 

There are many placement options. Divide a part at the far end of the room with retained light and use the extra space for group work or individual conversations. Divide a large classroom in two and keep an eye on both half-classes.

Movable walls with glass recesses provide an attractive and modern environment in offices, schools or other public spaces.

 

Many options

Movable walls with glass recesses offer the same great flexibility as our other movable walls.

The construction is based on complete blocks with parallel plane glass, in a stable aluminium frame. The suspension and parking options are the exact same as those of our other movable walls.

The usage area and purpose of the wall dictates the glass choice. Our program includes clear, transparent glass, coloured glass with slats, printed glass, frosted glass but also more daring alternatives such as blasted glass. 

The freedom of choice also extends to the choice of frames, which in the standard version are covered with natural anodised aluminium, but also offered in other colours and coatings.

Assembly guide

WINAB’s folding walls are easy to assemble. The walls are developed completely based on the client's requests regarding measurements, sectioning and surface treatment. All movable walls are ceiling-suspended, which eliminates the need for floor rails and always provides clean, free floor spaces.

The wall blocks have telescopic seals in the top and bottom edges and can be purchased as single- or two-point suspensions depending on parking requirements. Two-point suspended movable walls offer completely hidden parking, where the wall blocks can be parked in our outside the premises. For good and tight function between floor and wall, the floor must be level.

If any problems arise with the mounting process, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Assembly guide WINAB 2000 movable walls

BASIC INFORMATION
The movable walls consists of sections which hang in a carrying rail. The sections are attached between the carrying rail and the floor. Floor rails do not occur. The movable walls may be either single-point or double-point suspended with 1 or 2 carrying walls, respectively. If the wall is double-point suspended there is a garage. A single-point suspended wall does not have a garage.

  1. Measure the closing line. Make sure that the wall has the same measurements.
  2. Measure space for garage. The garage must fit in the intended space. The garage may not be cut. The straight pieces can be delivered oversize. Never cut shorter than the closing line on the drawing.

GARAGE ASSEMBLY

  1. Drill screw holes at appropriate distance.
  2. Screw in the garage from below according to the rail drawing.

STRAIGHT RAIL ASSEMBLY

  1. Drill screw holes at appropriate distance.
  2. If necessary, cut to the dimensions specified in the drawing.
  3. Screw in the rail from below according to the rail drawing. NOTE! Save the last rail piece until the sections have been hung in place.
  4. Use the included clips in the rail joints.

SECTION ASSEMBLY

  1. The sections are hung by the carrying rail in the order indicated in the accompanying drawing.
  2. Screw in the last rail piece.
  3. The frames are mounted in place with a sinker under the roof rail.
  4. The carrying trolleys are adjusted so that the sections are centred between floor and ceiling, after which the lock nuts are tightened. (Key 24, 18 and 13 mm).
  5. Attach with seam to wall and ceiling to ensure a tight installation.
  6. Follow the Operation & Maintenance Instructions to verify the function of the wall.

Parking

Hidden parking when the wall pieces should not be seen

Movable walls are always delivered as ceiling-suspended. The wall blocks have telescopic seals in the top and bottom edges and can be purchased as single- or two-point suspensions depending on parking requirements.

Two-point suspended walls offer the possibility for a completely hidden parking, in or outside the premises.

The parking alternatives below are only some examples of how movable walls may be parked. The parking options are much more extensive than that and very flexible depending on requests and the conditions the premises offer.

The parking alternatives K1, Z1, E1 and to some extent K4 are the most popular, while options K3, K5, K6 and Z2 are more to be considered as special solutions.

Parking options

K1

Parkeringsalternativ K1
Small, compact parking Two-point-suspension where one wheel pair runs along the closing line. A parking option which is suitable when one side of the movable walls is blocked in some way or when it may be difficult to find attachments outside the closing line.

K3

Parkeringsalternativ K3
A parking option where the wall segments are parked beside/behind a protruding wall. The parking cannot be considered "hidden", but the wall segments will still have a certain hidden placement when the room is to be used fully – without the movable walls.

K4

Parkeringsalternativ K4
The wall segments are parked in a niche outside the closing line. Here it is also possible to create a hidden parking by putting a niche door that completely hides the wall segments when they are parked.

K5

Parkeringsalternativ K5
An example of parking where a protruding wall is used to align several parking sections and a larger amount of wall segments of a relatively long closing line.

K6

Parkeringsalternativ K6
Niche rotated 90°. The wall segments are parked outside the closing line and, just as in K4, there is also here a possibility to create a hidden parking by placing a door over the niche.

Z1

Parkeringsalternativ Z1
Perhaps the most common two-point-suspension of movable walls. The suspension is relatively simple to mount and preferred in comparison to K1, which requires a few more handling steps when closing, opening and parking the wall.

Z2

Parkeringsalternativ Z2
A parking alternative where the wall segments protrude less next to the closing line in comparison to, for example, Z1.

E1

Parkeringsalternativ E1
A single-point-suspension movable walls where the wall is mounted at the centre of the closing line. The parking is simple and uncomplicated to mount.
