1) Why use wall dividers or screens instead of solid walls?
Wall dividers and screens help define zones without closing spaces in. They allow light to pass through, maintain sight lines, and keep rooms feeling open while still adding privacy or separation.
2) What materials are Featurecraft wall dividers available in?
Our wall dividers are available in three material options to suit different design needs. Solid timber battens give a warm, traditional feel. Fire rated veneer battens offer the look of real wood with added fire compliance and durability. Aluminium battens provide a strong, low-maintenance option suitable for high-impact or moisture-prone areas. Each material delivers its own aesthetic and performance qualities, giving you flexibility across various project types.
3) How are wall divider screens installed securely?
Wall dividers are fixed floor to ceiling using robust systems designed for stability and clean visuals. Depending on the look you want, we use discreet U-brackets, continuous U-channels, or flat base and top plates. These systems keep the screen rigid and prevent movement, even in high-traffic areas. Most of the hardware remains hidden, preserving the divider’s refined, architectural appearance while ensuring it safely withstands everyday use.
4) Can wall dividers and screens help with acoustics?
Yes. Wall dividers can be upgraded with acoustic panels to reduce echo and sound transfer between zones. This transforms the divider into a sound absorber, making it ideal for open-plan workplaces, hospitality venues, or residential spaces where you want both visual enhancement and noise control.
5) Are Featurecraft’s wall dividers compliant with the fire code?
They can be. For projects requiring fire safety, our fire rated veneer battens provide a Group 1S solution that meets New Zealand Building Code requirements, and our aluminium battens are completely non-combustible. These battens are optimal for commercial or public areas with strict fire rules.
6) Can I customise the design or spacing of a Featurecraft wall divider?
Absolutely. Every wall divider is made to order, allowing full control over height, width, batten spacing, and finishes. You can choose narrow or wide gaps depending on how open or private you want the divider to feel. We offer a wide range of stains, veneers, and powder-coated colours, including custom options. Whether you want a refined Asian dividing screen effect or a rustic Nordic pillar look, the design is tailored to your space.
