Richaire Glass Partition Systems

 

Richaire Glass Partitions are chosen from the Avanti Solare range or from the Invotek Glasswall range to suit the application. Both are fully glazed relocatable systems and offer a full range of single and double glazed partitions that may be either installed with dry joints, using translucent jointing channels, or silicone butt jointed.

 

The systems offer a choice of wood, single or double glazed hinged doors and either surface mounted sliding doors or between pane space saving sliding doors for double glazing. Doors may be frameless or mounted in wood or aluminium frames and can be standard height or full height. For fire-rated partitions a steel doorset is available

 

These partitions are for internal, non-load bearing applications and runs can be straight, or with faceted or radiused curves. Panes of glass are supported between a small floor and ceiling track and by similar wall tracks or vertical tracks at the ends of the runs.
