Dubai's Go-To Doors & Partitions Team

Partition installation in Dubai varies based on material and size. Glass partitions generally start around AED 150–300 per square meter, gypsum board partitions range from AED 80–150 per square meter, and aluminum frame partitions fall between AED 120–250 per square meter. Full room dividers can cost AED 2,000–15,000+ depending on complexity, soundproofing requirements, and finish quality. Labor is usually included in these estimates when hiring a professional service.

A standard interior door replacement typically takes 2–4 hours per door. This includes removing the old door, adjusting or replacing the frame if needed, fitting the new door, and installing hardware such as handles and hinges. If multiple doors are being replaced or structural adjustments are required, the timeline extends to a full day or more. Pre-hung door units are faster to install than slab-only replacements.

The most frequent door repair issues in Dubai include misaligned doors due to humidity and heat expansion, broken or stiff hinges, damaged door frames from moisture or impact, malfunctioning locks and handles, and warped wooden doors caused by AC temperature fluctuations. Minor repairs like hinge tightening or alignment adjustments typically cost AED 80–200. Lock replacements or frame repairs range from AED 150–500 depending on the hardware type and extent of damage.

A standard office partition installation in Dubai for a mid-sized space (50–100 sqm) typically takes 2–5 working days. Simple gypsum or MDF partitions are faster, often completed in 1–3 days. Glass partition systems with sliding doors or integrated blinds may require 4–7 days due to custom fabrication and fitting. Lead time for custom glass or aluminum partition orders is usually 5–10 business days before installation begins.

The choice depends on your priorities. Glass partitions are better for open, light-filled spaces and cost AED 150–300 per sqm but offer less acoustic privacy. Gypsum (drywall) partitions provide better sound insulation, are easier to paint and modify, and cost AED 80–150 per sqm, making them more budget-friendly for permanent room divisions. For offices requiring privacy with natural light, a combination of gypsum base walls with upper glass panels is a common and practical solution in Dubai commercial fit-outs.
