Key Findings – Internal Screens

  • Internal screens divide open-plan layouts without blocking light or airflow.
  • Ideal for zoning, privacy, and creating separate spaces with style.
  • Aluminium frames with slim sightlines offer a high quality design and minimal maintenance.
  • Options include hinged, pivot, sliding, and double doors tailored to individual needs.
  • Our AluSpace screens provide a versatile system suited for both homes and commercial spaces.

Ask any interior designer and they would agree that one of the biggest home improvement trends in recent years has been the rapid rise in popularity of open-plan living spaces.

The reasons for this are clear, with open-plan spaces creating a brighter, airier living area, as well as improving social flow and allowing greater flexibility in how you use your rooms.

However, the freedom of movement and sound that often comes with open-plan living can sometimes lead to less privacy, reduced definition between zones, and more noise.

That’s where internal screens come in, allowing you to enjoy open-plan living with the option to separate space when needed.

Internal screens are excellent for an open-plan feel.

What Are Internal Screens?

Internal screens are stylish glass panels that are usually framed in slim aluminium or steel, intended to divide open-plan living spaces without blocking natural light.

They help create different zones within a home, offering privacy and noise reduction while keeping rooms feeling bright and spacious.

Internal screens can be installed as hinged single, double, pivot, and sliding doors to accompany a fixed glazing screen besides it.

Whether it’s for homes in Buckinghamshire or commercial spaces, these elegant partitions create visual and acoustic separation while maintaining a seamless flow.

Why Should You Choose Internal Screens?

Zoning Without Closing Things Off

One of the main reasons homeowners love internal screens is their ability to define different zones. Open-plan layouts benefit from designated areas for cooking, working, or relaxing – all while keeping sightlines open.

Boosting Privacy

Adding an internal screen can help separate a home office, utility area, or quiet reading nook without isolating the space. Acoustic glass options improve privacy without compromising style.

Improving Interior Design

Internal screens make a stylish focal point in any room. With slim frames, black steel finishes, and beautiful glazing bars, they suit both traditional homes and contemporary interiors.

Improving Energy Efficiency

Zoning with screens means you can heat only the areas you’re using, perfect for energy-conscious households. Internal doors help retain heat in specific rooms, making them more efficient to warm up.

Made to Fit Your Needs

From single doors to double doors, sliding or pivot designs, every installation is tailored to your space and personal taste. You can choose from a range of colours, glass options, and finishes to match your decor.

Aluminium is the perfect material for internal screen doors.

What’s the Best Material for Internal Screens?

Aluminium is a standout material for internal screens, and it’s easy to see why.

Why Aluminium?

  • Slim Sightlines: Aluminium allows for minimal frame depth, maximising the glass area and letting light flood through.
  • Durability: High quality aluminium profiles are built to last. They won’t warp, swell, or rot like wood, and they require minimal maintenance.
  • Design Versatility: Aluminium can be finished in a wide choice of colours and configurations, from industrial black steel to softer, more subtle tones.
  • Sustainable & Strong: It’s a recyclable material with great structural integrity – ideal for stylish, eco-conscious homes.

Our AluSpace screens are the perfect example of how aluminium meets high quality design, blending practicality and elegance in every installation.
