Divide
With flexibility of space becoming increasingly more important, the addition of movable walls and sliding folding partitions, Divide is an ideal way of utilising existing space efficiently, effectively and economically.
Whether you want to sub-divide a classroom or office, host more than one function in a room simultaneously or create a number of rooms from one large floor space, we have a solution to suit all requirements and budgets.
Over recent years James Tobias have become an established front runner in the UK’s acoustic movable wall and sliding folding partition industry. We are proud of the fact our products are manufactured here in the UK and can lay claim to an already impressive array of prestigious projects and satisfied customers whilst we continue to enhance our reputation at the forefront of our industry. Our location enables us to provide nationwide coverage. We offer a complete design, survey, installation and maintenance package. This allows for a smooth running project carried out with utmost professionalism by our vastly experienced, highly skilled operatives who have the expertise to devise a solution for any scheme – even the most diverse configurations or radical surface finishes.
Air Divide – Individual Movable Panel System
The Air Divide range is our individual panel partition system. Ideally suited for high specification applications due to the sheer flexibility, numerous stacking arrangements available and the impressive acoustic qualities this system offers. The panels are operated by means of an internal scissor-jack mechanism and move effortlessly along an aluminium head track. When closed they form a secure fixed wall.
Infinity Divide – Continuously Hinged System
The Infinity Divide range is a continuously hinged system offering a mid level acoustic performance. With multiple fixed rubber sweep seals, it can offer excellent acoustic insulation. For added flexibility, or when there is no suitable structure to suspend from, the Infinity Divide can be supplied as a bottom rolling option, running along a low profile floor track.
Fire Rating
The Infinity and Air Divide ranges, when supplied with our standard melamine finish, have a class 3 surface spread of flame, this can be improved to Class 1 or Class O.
On the Air Divide system it is possible to have the panels supplied with two hour smoke seals – this needs to be priced as it is not standard.
