Double Skin Partitioning

Our double skin steel partitions create a smooth finish on both sides of the partitioning system, with minimal visible joints and a clean, professional appearance. This double skin partitioning is ideally suited to works offices, clean rooms and storage areas for chemicals or food products, where hygiene, separation and durability matter. The smooth interior finish helps make the completed space easier to maintain.

Double skin steel partitions can be designed to work as secure areas and factory dividing walls where people require controlled or alternative access. Double skin partitions offer a practical way to divide production, storage and welfare spaces without compromising the look of either side. For busy industrial premises, double skin partitions are a robust choice where strength, safety and a tidy finish are all important.

The panels sit directly into a floor channel, which is secured to the floor before the partitioning is erected. The panels are slotted into the floor channel, and a header channel is fitted to give the system extra support and strength. A framework of cold rolled channels panelled with steel-faced sections helps align each run of double skin partitions accurately. The system is quick and easy to construct and comes as standard with high-performance single doors, double doors and hospital-type door sets. Doors can be supplied with single or double-glazed vision panels, or flush with no vision panel.

Panels are constructed from steel sheets with a 50mm high density Rockwool slab infill. This double skin steel construction supports good sound reduction, sound insulation, thermal insulation and improved thermal performance within the finished enclosure. Panels are connected by means of an internal section, making installation quick and simple, while the internal panel connection adds rigidity and a wireway facility. Because double skin steel partitions are finished on both faces, both the interior and exterior sides remain neat for offices, cleanrooms and controlled storage areas.

Key features of our double skin partitions include durable steel faces, clean lines, minimal joints and a consistent finish. Specifying double skin partitions can help create quieter, better separated work areas while still allowing practical access for staff, materials and maintenance. These double skin partitions also integrate well with associated guarding, barriers, cages and access solutions where a wider safety system is required.

Double skin partitions can be supplied to suit new layouts, refurbishments or changes to existing floor space. Where an installation needs to meet a particular operational requirement, our team can advise on door positions, vision panels, panel heights and junction details. Billington Safety Systems can design and install double skin steel partitions that support everyday use while maintaining a strong, professional finish.
