There are times when a clear partition provides a distinct advantage over traditional fabric-covered partitions. Use Clear Room Dividers when you need to control or contain an area but still need to have an unobstructed view of what’s happening on the other side of the barrier. See-through walls are great for a number of settings, from hospitals to schools to science labs.
Screenflex uses 3/16-inch crystal-clear OPTIX® acrylic to create these versatile clear panels. OPTIX® acrylic is non-yellowing, lightweight, and highly impact-resistant. Our plexiglass room dividers are three times as strong as double-strength window glass. For added durability, our translucent wall panels are affixed to the custom anodized extruded aluminum channels with a silicone adhesive. Minor assembly is required for one panel clear dividers.
Screenflex Acrylic Dividers Are Perfect for a Variety of Applications
- Check-In Barrier- Portable Plexiglass walls are perfect for any medical facility right at the reception area. In hospitals, primary care facilities, and dentist offices, plexiglass room dividers act as a line of defense from infectious diseases spreading to either medical staff or patients. The transparent semi-plastic barrier allows communication to continue on either side of the partition as well. If there are multiple patients at reception, the Clear Dividers can act as a sneeze guard and also as a form of crowd control between people. Since these dividers are freestanding and portable, they can easily be moved to different areas of the facility as needed.
- Security Wall – Clear partition walls are ideal for security situations in airports, hotels, or school lobbies because they allow you to restrict access and also see what is beyond the barrier. See Crowdflex Acrylic Barricades for additional clear crowd control barriers. They are also a great way to create cooperative learning environments in classrooms or libraries. Since you can write on them, using rolling, translucent wall panels allow you to post information without being tied to a wall, and it won’t block your view of the rest of the room. You can use see-through walls in educational settings such as classrooms, student unions, cafeterias, and lobby spaces. A clear partition is also ideal for restaurants, open-concept kitchens, and museums.
- Inclement Weather Barrier – We got this great tip from several customers who have used their acrylic barrier to reduce or control drafts and temperature fluctuations in lobby areas. Simply place a three-panel clear mobile divider inside the entrance or a series of connected clear dividers in front of a bank of entry doors to reduce the force of cold exterior air from entering a lobby space. We tried it and it made a big difference.
Frosted Plexiglass Panels
Frosted plexiglass panels are a perfect option for when you need privacy while still allowing some light and see-through capabilities. These panels are excellent for clinics, offices, schools, or check-in areas. With the possibility to frost only half of the divider, workers can communicate with others through the clear part while still offering privacy for any paperwork or information on their desks. These translucent frosted plexiglass panels work great for patients filling out medical information and social distancing during vaccination clinics and other healthcare-related needs.
Since the 2020 pandemic started, plexiglass (perspex) wall dividers have been a crucial tool for managing the spread of COVID-19 and other infectious diseases in medical facilities. See-through walls are also ideal for indoor play areas, athletic facilities, amusement/tourist venues, or retail shopping centers. They are also an important asset at airport security checkpoints and correctional institutions because they allow for physical separation without losing the ability for visual surveillance.
