Reception & Waiting Area Screens

Reception & waiting areas

Your reception is the first thing visitors see. Freestanding screens give waiting visitors some privacy, hide desks and storage from view, and soften echo in hard-floored entrances – while keeping the space open and welcoming.

Freestanding screens for receptions

Screen off waiting seating, back-office desks or a walkway from the front door.

Wipe-clean screens for clinics and busy receptions

For surgeries, clinics, dental practices and public counters, where screens need regular cleaning.

Layout tips

Keep sightlines

Use 1200–1500mm screens around seating so staff can still see visitors arriving.

Hide the back office

1800mm screens behind the desk hide paperwork, storage and staff areas from view.

Tackle echo

Hard floors and glass make receptions loud. Fabric screens plus wall panels absorb the sound.

Frequently asked questions

What screens work best in a reception area?

Freestanding fabric screens between 1200mm and 1800mm high. Lower screens around waiting seating keep the space open; taller screens behind the desk hide the back office.

Do you have wipe-clean screens for clinics and waiting rooms?

Yes. Our easy-clean vinyl screens have a wipe-clean finish suited to surgeries, clinics and other healthcare waiting areas.

Will screens make a reception quieter?

Acoustic screens absorb voices and reduce echo from hard floors and glass, so the space feels calmer. They absorb sound rather than block it, so they are not soundproof.

Can I match the screens to our brand colours?

Most screens come in a wide range of fabric colours. Order free fabric samples to check the colour before you buy.
