Movable Walls for Universities
Movable walls for universities let facilities teams turn one room into several without the disruption of building work.
At Avant Movable Walls, we design, manufacture and install movable walls built to your building’s exact opening size – this could be a newly built teaching block or an older campus structure.
- Acoustic ratings from 38dB to 59dB across our MW80, MW90 and MW110 systems
- Automated, semi-automated and manual operation options
- Structural compatibility with steel, concrete and timber construction
- Custom solutions built in ISO 9001-accredited UK factories
- Maintenance packages available
Adjustable movable wall systems for university campuses
Universities need to be flexible as the same campus needs to offer lecture theatres, seminar rooms, open-plan study areas and departmental offices.
Movable walls, also known as operable walls, are acoustic space dividers made from individual panels. These panels hang from a concealed ceiling track spanning the opening of a space, extending to create a temporary wall exactly where and when you need one.
The panels can be stacked to one side or split into a bi-parting arrangement depending on how you want to open the space. Some of our models don’t require a floor track, ideal for lecture theatres and labs where trolleys, AV equipment and wheelchair users need a flat path.
We manufacture the full range in-house, so you can specify the right system for each space on campus:
- Sliding folding partitions
- Glass movable walls
- Glass sliding folding walls
- Straight slider walls
- Vinyl concertina partitions – a lighter, more affordable room divider for lower-traffic areas such as staff rooms and canteens
Panels are available in a range of finishes, including wood-effect and block colour options, enhancing the aesthetics of the room as well as improving function.
Benefits of movable walls for universities
Lecture theatres and seminar rooms that flex with different class sizes
A large lecture theatre can be divided into smaller seminar rooms, then opened back up when a bigger group needs the space.
That gives departments room to run parallel sessions, break students into smaller groups for workshops or combine two teaching spaces for a guest lecture.
Acoustic performance for shared academic buildings
If several departments share your campus buildings and classes or lectures run concurrently, then sound control matters.
Our range is rated from 38dB up to 59dB depending on the model, cutting noise transfer between educational areas.
Flexible learning spaces that adapt as courses change
Course structures and class sizes change more often than a building does.
Movable walls enable your premises to accommodate group project work, independent study and formal teaching at different points in the week. This means students and academic staff get a space that suits how the course is actually being taught, rather than the layout dictating it.
A sustainable alternative to permanent construction
Reconfiguring a room with a movable wall avoids the waste and disruption caused by a permanent renovation.
Our factories hold ISO 14001 and FSC accreditation, so it’s a way to support a wider sustainability strategy for your educational hub.
Why choose Avant Movable Walls?
One supplier for every space
Lecture theatres, seminar rooms, offices and communal areas rarely need the same system.
We manufacture movable, sliding, glass and concertina wall systems, so we can help you choose the right product(s) for your needs and install it too, rather than you having to jump between suppliers and installers.
Acoustic ratings to match the room
Our systems are rated from 38 up to 59dB respectively, so you can choose the acoustic performance without overpaying for a higher-specification system.
Environmental accreditation for your estates strategy
Our factories hold ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and FSC accreditation, giving procurement and estates teams a documented environmental standard to reference when a movable wall forms part of a wider sustainability commitment.
