Expert Guide to Finding the Best Office Screen for Your Workspace

Why You Need an Office Screen in Your Workspace

An office screen is one of the most cost-effective ways to enhance privacy, reduce distractions, and improve productivity in your workspace without having to spend the time and money (and interruptions) to install permanent divider walls.

Keep the benefits of a flexible, open-plan office space, while giving employees their own private space to focus and get to work, with Buy Direct Online’s range of office partition screens.

Types of Office Screens and Their Applications

There’s a wide range of options if you’re looking for an office screen, ranging from privacy screens and acoustic screens, to whiteboard and pinboard options for extra functionality on top of improved privacy and productivity. 

We select products that are made from high-quality materials so you get the most value for your investment. Our screens make it possible for you to quickly change the layout of an office space without interrupting workflow.

Free-standing Office Screens

If you want an open office space but need the option to partition areas for privacy or divide up work areas, our free-standing office screen range gives you the ultimate in portability and flexibility. The ideal temporary partition, these screens are easily and quickly moved to create any office configuration you need.

Desk-mounted Office Screens

If you want to create more privacy and a more permanently divided area in your office space, desk-mounted office screens can create a good balance. Each desk can have its office privacy screen, but the room itself can remain open and spacious, increasing privacy without sacrificing communication and collaboration.

Acoustic Office Screens

Sometimes office spaces can get noisy, especially in high-stress environments. That’s when an acoustic office screen can be a game changer; they’re designed to reduce noise and increase privacy in workplaces where your team needs focus and concentration for maximum productivity.

Modular Office Screens

Not all offices fit into a ‘one-size-fits-all’ layout, so we’ve made sure to stock a range of modular office screens that let you configure your workplace the way you want it. These screens easily connect to create as large or small a space as required, and are able to be quickly modified if you need to change things up.

Materials Used in Office Screens

We make sure to stock a broad range of screens to suit any workplace, so you’ll find a great office screen no matter the aesthetics you’re working with. These screens don’t just look great but have some really beneficial features to make your workplace flow as smoothly as possible.

Fabric Office Screens

Fabric screens are a cost-effective way to increase privacy, reduce noise with their effective sound absorption, and come in a range of colours to suit any office aesthetic.

Glass Office Screens

Wanting a modern, sleek aesthetic, but still have screens that can effectively increase privacy and productivity? Our glass office screens are modular and the backs can be fitted with magnetic glass or pinnable fabric to reduce noise and increase functionality.

Metal and Wood Office Screens

Metal and wood are stylish, durable, and effective, ideal for high-traffic or corporate environments that need dividers that are as functional as they are good-looking. 

How to Choose the Right Office Screen for Your Needs

Selecting the right office screen for your workspace is easier than you think, you just need to decide the basics; what you need from the screens, the design you’d like, and the material that suits your office aesthetic.

Assessing Privacy Needs

The first step is deciding on the balance you want for your office space; high-privacy at the cost of easy communication, or low-privacy to encourage collaboration and teamwork.

Considering Acoustic Control

Open-plan workspaces and shared offices are great for collaboration and teamwork, but sometimes volume can be a challenge – so you’ll need to determine how much acoustic control you’ll want from your screens.

Aesthetic and Design Preferences

The easiest (though some may say the hardest) part is to choose the aesthetics of your screens, including the materials (ranging from fabric, to glass, to wood), colours, and the type of frame and legs you want for your screens. 

If you’re fitting out an entire office, we offer bulk pricing and complete office fit outs, just get in contact with the team.

We stock a wide range of colours and materials for you to choose from, to suit any office colour scheme and style. Browse the range and select the material, colour, and size of screen you want and we’ll help you transform your office space. 

You can also select the type of frame and legs used for most screens, with metal and wood options available in various styles so that you get exactly the office screen design you want.

Office Screen Maintenance and Durability

Keeping your office screen clean long-term isn’t as difficult as you may think, you’ll just want to follow a few easy steps. If you’re using fabric screens, these will simply need a quick vacuum to control dust, or perhaps a surface cleaner or carpet cleaner for any larger messes. 

Wood screens can be wiped down with a damp cloth, and try something like Windex to keep your glass screens looking their best!
