Installing an internal glass partition: prepare each stage

Specify room, light, privacy, door and intended separation. Check the system’s application: Sogal explicitly excludes showers, guarding and outdoor installation for its internal glazing. Similar appearance does not establish suitability for another function.

Provide available drawings, photographs and alteration history. A competent professional should establish wall function, services and necessary investigations. One visit cannot guarantee resolution of every unknown. Where structure is involved, define design, supports and preliminary work; an IPN beam is not an automatic answer.

Contact the municipality before undertaking alterations. Guichet.lu directs enquiries to the municipal service; the page is being updated. Confirm requirements for your project and address.

Assign final measurement and its timing relative to masonry and flooring. Identify dimensions, grid, door, opening direction, glass, colour and interfaces. Clarify adaptation to uneven substrates and approval of changes. Initial client measurements are not manufacturing approval.

Separate paid visits or design, opening preparation, partition, transport, handling, fixings, seals, waste and surrounding decoration. Agree taxes, payments and schedule. Neither free visits nor excluded finishes are universal. Fast production does not prove poor quality, and a long lead time does not prove hand manufacture.

Confirm delivery route, handling area, furniture protection and substrate readiness. Agree whether rooms remain usable during work. Opening and finishing work affect the programme; do not promise same-evening use. The installer must follow the chosen system’s documentation.

Check appearance, alignment, door operation, interfaces and compliance with the approved drawing. Record reservations and resolution. Obtain glazing and hardware references, cleaning instructions and use limits. Ask when seals and finishes allow normal use and whom to contact for adjustments.
