MOVABLE WALL UPSIDE<\/span><\/h1>

In the open-office work of collaboration and communication where most walls are coming down (not going up), movable walls, floor-to-ceiling, accommodate privacy needs and offer the flexibility to reconfigure tomorrow. Teaming and conference rooms, training areas and private offices can now comfortably and economically coexist with more open plans. The wall systems are installed as a furniture \u201cturnkey\u201d concept. Building an interior space in this way provides many benefits.<\/p>

BENEFITS<\/span><\/h1>
  • Faster installation which can reduce costs<\/li>
  • Simplifying and streamlining the construction process<\/li>
  • A modern and dynamic look<\/li>
  • No dust, no paint smell and no waste<\/li>
  • A fully movable product that can be dismantled and reassembled with normally only an electrician and an installer<\/li>
  • Potential tax advantages (when categorized as furniture and equipment)<\/li><\/ul>

    DRYWALL PROCESS DOWNSIDE<\/span><\/h1>

    Traditionally, drywall is constructed at the beginning of a project. Then the other trades are required to work around the walls already in place (e.g., electrical, network cabling, painting, carpet, cleaning, furniture, equipment, etc.). Scheduling and coordination of these sub contractors creates longer delays in building the project, at a higher cost.<\/p>

    Movable walls reinvent this process by treating full-height walls like modular furniture. The building shell made up of electrical, cabling, suspended ceiling, carpet and perimeter finishing is executed in an open space without the presence of walls to obstruct the movement of tradesman and materials.<\/p>

    DO YOU REALLY NEED THE FLEXIBILITY OF A MOVABLE WALL?<\/span><\/h1>

    Really consider in your long term plans whether you need the flexibility that these systems provide. Be sure to ask the right people these questions when looking at this type of system:<\/p>

    • How long will you be at this location (factoring in whether it is owned or leased space)<\/li>
    • What\u2019s the rationale for using movable walls?<\/li>
    • Do you really need and will you really use the flexibility these systems provide?<\/li><\/ul>

      \u00a0<\/h1>

      IF MOVABLE IS THE RIGHT SYSTEM (TRENDWAY)<\/span><\/h1>

      Be sure to choose a \u201cgreen system\u201d that is a wall system \u2013 not a furniture system that grew up to be a wall system:<\/p>

      A company that:<\/p>

      • Has been designing movable walls for 45 years<\/li>
      • \u00a0Provides a fast lead time (two to four weeks)<\/li>
      • Integrates with both existing building infrastructure and systems furniture<\/li>
      • Provides a broad palette of standard surface materials and finishes:
        • Veneer<\/li>
        • Tackable\/fabric<\/li>
        • Laminate and faux veneer<\/li>
        • Tempered and decorative glazing<\/li>
        • Writable\/magnetic back painted glass in a choice of colors<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
