 Cubicles are a commonplace through many offices. Whether it is a call center, insurance companies or a small business looking to maximize space,   a cubicle is one of the most cost efficient ways to set up an individualized work space for each employee.

When moving offices or setting up workstations, build out for individual offices can easily push a project over budget quickly. Often it wastes space as well where as offices usually are set though out the wall space leaving an open middle forcing more room to be needed per employee. A Cubicle allows for you to maximize the density of your office and how much floor space will be allocated per employee.

Cubicles are generally five to seven foot panels that are arranged in a way to make an office for an employee, which has become known as a cube. These partitions are set up and padded to help deaden noise which will help maximize productivity because the cross talk traffic is cut down.

 As with any office area that bustles with activity, cutting the noise level is a very real problem. Cross chatter serves to distract employees, cuts down on privacy which allows conversations to be overheard or makes it difficult to concentrate on individual work. The simple principle of sound absorption allows for the cross chatter to be limited and makes any employee more productive.

Another factor is that employees are more productive when they are not in an open area distracted by other’s phone calls or customer interactions. If you have ever worked in an open area where employees are  not afforded privacy you will see that there is a much lower productivity rate because the concentration levels of tasks diminish. 

There are a few different ways to purchase a cubicle and depending on the budget, used cubicles as well as refurbished units may be a great alternative.  Many of the used cubicles are in pristine condition which opens an avenue to furnish a large work area with office space for the most efficient pricing available.  It’s as simple as defining your work space .

Defining a work space with a cubicle gives each employee a feeling of personal space and allows them to ‘own’ their area, better investing them in your business. It’s a way to help your employees to feel like they have a place in the company and not just thrown into a room. This allows for them to also personalize their area making their work environment more comfortable which will further increase productivity.

One can also expect to save some on  furniture since cubicles  have desks/table areas built into them. This is a way to efficiently provide a workstation for the employee without incurring the cost of additional furniture.  Defining work spaces in this manner allow for you to maximize space as well as roll in the cost of furniture because of how they are constructed.

Overall, in the modern workspace, with the advent of telephones and computers, the cubicle makes a better way for any company to make the best use of their space. Gone are the days of the open office format because of the need for greater productivity and privacy.

A lateral file is a vital piece of office equipment that has survived the age of the computer. Lateral files have been around for a long time and are still found in every office today. Since most newer operations have done their best to create a paperless environment one would think that a file cabinet is a thing of the past, however some things just have to be kept on paper still to this day and therefore file cabinets are likely to be around for a long time to come.

Yes these days the most economical way to store files is using an electronic medium. Usually in the way of a hard drive that all vital files are stored on. Some places even use offsite storage

to protect their files in case their offices burn down or are somehow an act of god wipes out their operation. Having said almost everyone still keeps paper records for things like their tax records, receipts, purchase orders, warrantee papers, client files and etc, etc. Since paper has not been totally eliminated a file cabinet is still vital when running a company and doing so in a organized manner.

File cabinets come in a variety of different configurations. Minimum you will have one drawer and up to 5 or 6 drawers to store files in. Lateral files are probably the most common variation. A lateral file system is usually organized alphabetically or by day or month. Many lawyers offices use lateral files to store contracts and vital legal documents and a file cabinet or a series of them up against the wall are quite common ways to store legal documents. Medical offices also still use lateral files to keep client records. These days more and more of this has gone to an electronic format but certain things like X-rays are still kept in a file along with client info.

Edwin G. Seibel's is credited with the invention of the file cabinet back in 1898. Before his invention people used a complicated shelving system that required you too fold your records and then place them in the appropriate shelf. This was a very inconvenient way to store records. Edwin Siebel knowing this tedious process decided that it would be much easier to store records in a folder and storing them vertically in a cabinet. Over the years of course his original design has been modified and has morphed in to today's modern day file storage units you see in every major workplace today.

Maybe some day in the not so distant future we will eliminate paper all together form our daily life's and these units will no longer serve a purpose but until that day they remain a vital part of a smooth running business operation .

Room Dividers are the perfect way for you to make the most of your open spaces that are going to waste. Especially in office environments a flexible room that could be separated using a room divider which can easily be moved can make an area double as a conference room as well as temporary offices. These room dividers in a work environment are also sometimes called office partitions or an office divider. Simply these dividers are a way to efficiently utilize an open space and turn it in to several smaller workspaces.

One would think why not just build out some office space or use cubicles to do the Job? Simply the answer is that these options do not allow a business the flexibility to take a space and use it for multiple purposes where a office partition can do the same job as these other options, and can easily be folded up and stored away once the demands on the area change. A foldable office divider can either be used to just separate a room or several smaller office partitions could be used to create a temporary office or cubicle.

Our Room Dividers come in a variety of different dimensions. Also the panels can be covered in many different fabrics or a vinyl covering depending on your needs. Also sound absorbing panels are used therefore inhibiting sound to travel.

Room Dividers can also be used as temporary offices making it an easy way to provide office space for temporary help and then again freeing up the space once the job is done. Our Office partitions can be configured to lock together to create temporary walls for this space and once they are no longer needed they can simply be folded and stored away for future use. the beauty of this type of office partition is that they can serve many purposes instead of just one. For this type of situation using free standing office dividers are best. Mainly because they are wheeled in unfolded and configured in the way you wish. Once you have them locked in place the way you want they are permanent until you decide to move them once again.

Office Divider Panel Construction:

The panels on most of our partition walls are made using state of the art technology. the core of our panels are made of 3/4" closed cell honeycomb and non woven fiberglass facing which gives them maximum sound absorbency as well as tackibility. For stability a 26 gauge galvanized steel frame is used. This makes for a rigid panel that have superior quality as well as being able to hold screws reliably. All these components are then permanently bonded using fiberglass matt. By this process sound absorbancy and tackability are greatly enhanced. Using this process ensures that our product is of the highest quality.  Another addition to our product are heavy duty casters which are self leveling making it easy to position this product anywhere you need without it needing to be on a level surface. This feature is available on all free standing movable units we currently carry.
