Upset movable partition

A panel on steel feet that clamp themselves. Reconfigure the room without losing the light.

Freestanding mobile partitionMade in Carrara, ItalyQuote only

Upset answers the need to reconfigure a space flexibly without giving up light or design. A Bencore panel stands on support feet in mirror polished or plain steel, and a spring inside each foot tightens it onto the panel automatically, so the partition can be moved by one person and set down again anywhere.

Three feet are offered. Upset Design is the sculpted foot in the catalogue photographs, Upset Flat the low profile foot, and Upset Wheels the castor version for partitions that move every day. Panels of 17, 19 and 21 mm from across the Bencore range fit.

Questions

Upset questions

Does Upset need fixing to the floor?

No. The panel stands on its steel feet, which clamp it by spring pressure. Nothing is drilled into the floor, the ceiling or the panel.

Which Upset foot should I choose?

Design for a sculpted foot that is part of the look, Flat where the foot should disappear, Wheels where the partition moves daily.

Can Upset take an acoustic panel?

Lightben Acoustic is 17 mm, which is one of the three thicknesses Upset accepts. Ask us to confirm the pairing for your panel size.
