We've got double glazed glass partition units on the cheap to act as our new office partitioning. Problem is these units are 257cm when the floor to suspended ceiling height is 254cm! Since these glass partitions have to sit in a timber frame that adds another 4 inches. There is about...

If someone locks the thread unnecessarily then I don't know if someone knows as no-one can reply! You replied similarly in the other thread so I'm no certain you don't know which is more suitable - but why clog up two threads with unnecessary responses saying "no one knows"? It makes people...

Unfortunately some over-eager moderator has locked my new thread to replies. In the new thread I asked a question: Which is more sound proof for the cost, double glazing or laminate (say 12mm laminate) glass? Unfortunately the mod thought that this was somehow the same question as this...

Hi, we're partitioning our offices internally. We want the 5 offices to have glass fronts for light and feeling of openness but we want it to provide some measure of sound proofing. The main issue is cost. Which would be cheaper, but taking into account sound proofing, laminate or double...

Well, I was planning on building up studwork (timber or metal) near the floor and perhaps near the ceiling to make up the height. I don't think I can afford double glazing internally anyway. If I was to go with this, would it meet building regulations?

We're dividing a large office space to sublet part of it. So we're building new internal partitions (studwork with glass panels inset for lots of light). Do we need to worry about building regs on this, e.g. checking the glass is the correct BSxxx standard or whatever? Obviously we'll do...

Further to my other question about building cheap glass partition - someone mentioned building regulations. If I can pick up shower panels (i.e. full height side panels for a stand-up corner shower without the door part) cheaply (say £80/panel) can I use these as office partitions? I'm...

We want to create 4 offices out of a large open space, each about 3x3.5m, in a line (with shared walls) - 18m of glass partitioning. Natural light comes from the two sides so we want lots of glass to let the light in the the middle offices. Real glass partitioning seems to cost quite a bit...

I'm in a flat where the hot water (& cold) is centrally supplied to all flats on a mains pressure (megaflow/unvented) system. The shower in my flat has a manual mixer (not thermostatic) which doesn't seem to keep a constant temperature it fluctuates making for an uncomfortable shower - one...
