Request a Glass Partition Site Measurement Visit

Why a Professional Site Measurement Matters for Glass Partitions

Glass partitions are made to exact dimensions, and even a small measuring error can mean a panel that does not fit the opening. During an office relocation, the new space often has walls, ceilings and floors that are not perfectly square or level, so measuring from a plan alone is rarely enough.

A professional visit lets the technician see the actual conditions on site, including wall thickness, existing fixtures, door swing and the position of ceiling tracks. Measuring once on location saves time, prevents rework and helps the whole move stay on schedule.

What to Prepare Before the Visit

Having a few details ready makes the visit faster and more accurate. Send us photos of the space and, if you have one, a floor plan showing where the partitions should go.

• Photos of each wall and opening, taken from several angles
• Approximate ceiling height and the type of ceiling
• Location of doors, windows and electrical outlets
• Preferred glass type, frame finish and door direction
• Access details for the building and parking

What Happens During the Measurement Visit

The technician arrives at the scheduled time and walks the space with you. Each opening is measured at several points, because floors and walls can vary. The technician also checks how the partition will meet the floor, ceiling and adjacent walls.

Any site conditions that affect the installation are noted, such as uneven flooring, obstacles or areas that need extra support. You are welcome to point out where you want the partitions and discuss the layout while the technician is present.

From Measurements to Drawing and Specification

After the visit, we prepare a drawing of each partition and a written specification. The document lists dimensions, glass type, frame profile, finish, hardware and any doors included in the layout.

Please review the drawing carefully. Check the sizes, door positions and finish against what you expect. Once you approve the specification in writing, production begins in our factory on Rival Street in Tel Aviv. Changes made after approval may affect the schedule, so it helps to settle the layout early.

Planning the Visit Around Your Office Move

Timing matters

Schedule the measurement visit early enough to allow for drawing, approval, production and installation before your move date. Glass partitions are a custom product, so the earlier the measurements are taken, the more room there is in the timeline.

If the office is still in use, arrange the visit at a time that suits your staff. Let us know if access is restricted, so the technician can plan accordingly.

Working With Facility Managers and Contractors

Relocation projects often involve several people: the facility manager, the interior designer, the building contractor and the office management team. We recommend choosing one contact person who can approve drawings and changes on behalf of the company. This avoids confusion and keeps the schedule clear.

If your contractor or architect is involved, invite them to the measurement visit. Their input on wall construction and finishes can prevent conflicts during installation.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be present during the site measurement visit?

It is recommended, because you can point out the exact partition locations and discuss the layout on the spot. If you cannot attend, make sure someone with authority to approve decisions is available.

What if my office is still in use during the visit?

Tell us the available times in advance so the technician can work around your staff. Let us know about any access limits or security procedures in the building.

How long does it take to receive the drawing after the visit?

After the measurements are taken, we prepare a drawing and written specification for your review. Our team will confirm the timeline with you once the visit is complete.

Can I change the layout after the specification is approved?

Changes are possible, but they can affect production and the schedule, so it is best to finalize the layout before approval. Please raise any concerns during the review stage.

Common mistakes to avoid

Many relocation projects lose time by measuring from a floor plan alone or by waiting until the move is close to request the visit. Schedule the measurement early and have the layout decided before the drawing is approved.

Our recommendation

Ask the technician to measure every opening at several points and confirm the ceiling and floor conditions on site. Review the drawing and specification line by line before you sign off, especially door direction and finish.

Summary

A site measurement visit is the most reliable way to get glass partitions that fit your new office. Prepare photos and layout ideas, approve a written specification, and schedule early to keep your move on track.
