What is a Budget Screen?
The Budget Screen is a high-quality, low-cost partition, and a popular choice amongst SME’s and healthcare establishments. Designed to be a robust and effective partition screen, we manufacture using first-rate materials, following a tried and tested process, perfected over many years. This same process lets us offer the Budget Screens in a large selection of sizes and finishes, all of which are made to order for each customer. This means that each screen is crafted to your chosen specifics, tailoring the finish to meet your requirements.
There are 7 styles of Budget Screen available; straight acoustic, wave acoustic, curved acoustic, portable acoustic, pro acoustic, acoustic pods and medical partitions. Within each of these product ranges is a selection of standard sizes, and the facility to link various panels together to form other sizes and layouts to cover larger widths and spaces.
The Acoustic Panels selections have a broad choice of fabric colours, with the Budget Pro offering further colourways, if you’re looking to match your company branding or simply brighten up your office. The medical screens utilise a wipeable HPL top layer that serves as an antibacterial, easily cleaned covering as well as a whiteboard.
What are Budget Screens used for?
The acoustic Budget Screens are often placed within an office scene, used to divide space and different departments, or even between desks to create a privacy barrier. The acoustic foam used within the make up of the screens offers some noise absorbency, helping to soak up some of the excess sound that is common in workplaces. The different styles of partitions within the acoustic Budget Screen range admit the opportunity to form varying set ups and layouts.
The Budget Medical Screens are the ideal addition to any healthcare or medical environment. Finished with an easy to clean white gloss laminate, they are perfect for partitioning areas and the upgrade to castor wheels makes maneuvering the panels to different position quick and simple.

Why choose a Budget Screen?
The Budget Screens are a great option for those looking for a classic partition screen without the big expense that often accompanies these items.
The linking facility within the Budget Screens make it a popular choice when looking to divide larger rooms or design bespoke layouts. The linking channel is applied directly to both the left and right edges of every Budget partition as standard, and a 2 way connector provided free of charge aids with easily joining the screens together. This way of linking makes separating the screens again straightforward.

How are Budget Screens assembled?
There is very little assembly required with the Budget Screens. The panels are shipped to you ready made on a secure pallet. The most you’ll need to do to start using your Budget Screen is inserting the feet into the pre-drilled foot slots in the base of the screen and positioning in your desired location. If you’re connecting multiple panels together to cover a wider length you’ll insert the 2 way rubber linking strip supplied with the screen into the linking channel on both screens you need attaching by placing the screens next to each other.

How are the Budget Screens made?
At Rap Office Screens we manufacture the complete Budget Screen range in-house, which allows us to completely control the materials we use and the manufacture process. By manufacturing the screens to order we’re able to produce a high quality partition made to your specification each and every time.
Budget Screens are manufactured using a solid 18mm core, with 12mm fire retardant foam or high pressure laminate applied to both sides. The acoustic screens are also supplied with a choice of fabric on both sides. The screens are then finished with a PVC T edging and linking channel, providing a tidy finish and joining capability with multiple partitions. Foot slots are created in the base of the panels to allow you to easily insert your foot of choice into the of the screen without the need for any tools.
Each screen is checked by our production team once manufacturing has finished to ensure they are up to specification and the high quality we expect for each order before they are packaged onto the handmade pallet ready for delivery.
What screen sizes and finishes are available?
As manufacturers we offer a wide selection of sizes for our partition screens. For the Acoustic Budget Screens our standard sizes range from 1200mm to 2000mm in height, 800mm to 2000mm in width (height dependent). We are also able to offer bespoke sizing on larger quantities.
Our Budget Wave and Curve partition screens sizes are a little different to the standard screen, with the wave top finish having differing highest and lowest points of the sloped design e.g. 1500-1200mm indicating that the highest point of the panel will be 1500mm and wave down to the 1200mm at the lowest point at the top of the screen. The curved Budget screens are available from 1200mm to 1800mm high, all of which are 800mm wide with a radius of 1131mm.
The Budget Medical Screens are sold in 2 height options as standard; 1800 and 2000mm, with 3 widths per panel; 800, 1000 or 1200mm. We offer the medical screen in the white gloss laminate as this is the element that provide the antibacterial, wipeable surface.
Stabilising feet are provided with each partition as standard, however we do have other foot options available in place of these feet if required. These include castor wheels, round base feet, and button feet. The colour of the feet provided is matched to the edging colour selected with each screen. The PVC edging applied to every panel is available in either grey or black, with the Budget Medical supplied in black as standard.
