A bronze stainless steel laser cut screen can define a hotel lobby, screen a villa lounge or give a reception wall its character. Because the work is made to order, a quotation is only as good as the information behind it. This guide walks through exactly what to send to the factory, so the price you receive matches the screens you actually need on site.
What Makes This Screen Different From an Off-the-Shelf Divider
Our Custom Bronze Stainless Steel Laser Cut Decorative Screen Partition is fabricated from stainless steel with an antique bronze surface and cut to a pattern you choose. Panel count, overall size, finish and pattern are all adjustable, and the panels are supplied as a multi-panel configuration that can be laid out across a wide feature wall. Because nothing is standard, there is no price list to work from — every figure is calculated from your drawing, your finish selection and your site condition.
Screens of this type are used where a solid wall would block light and a glass partition would offer no visual interest. The cut pattern throws shadow across floors and walls when light passes through it, which is why they appear so often in lobbies, clubhouses and luxury residential projects. If you are comparing options, our Custom Laser Cut Metal Screen for hotel reception areas follows the same production route, so the brief below applies to both.
Information the Factory Needs Before Pricing
1. Overall opening or feature-wall dimensions. Give the width and height of the area the screen must cover, and say whether the screen stands free, fixes to floor and ceiling, or sits inside a recess. Note floor finishes and ceiling heights if they differ from the drawings, since panel heights are set to suit the site.
2. Panel division. Tell us how many panels you expect and whether the division must avoid a door opening, a reception desk or a structural column. Multi-panel layouts for wide walls are usually planned around transport limits as well as visual rhythm, and we will propose a division if you do not have one.
3. Pattern and reference image. A photograph, a sketch, a CAD block or a mood-board image all work. If the pattern has a repeating unit, provide the repeat size so the cut-out scale is correct on your wall rather than on the reference photo. Where you have no artwork, we work from your description of the style — geometric, floral, linear or sculptural.
4. Finish and metal colour. Bronze is the reference finish for this product; other surface treatments, including brushed gold, matte black and antique bronze tones, are available across the laser cut metal screen range. State whether you want a warm aged bronze or a brighter metallic sheen, and where the screen sits relative to daylight and lighting.
5. Application and location. Hotel lobby, guest lift landing, restaurant screen, villa partition or clubhouse feature wall. The setting determines fixings, panel rigidity and how the edges are finished against adjacent materials.
6. Quantity and project stage. Number of screens per site and whether you are at concept, tender or construction stage. Project buyers who send quantities across several locations usually receive a more useful package price than buyers quoting one wall at a time.
Drawings, Samples and Prototypes
If you have shop drawings, send them in PDF or DWG along with a dimensioned elevation. Where drawings are not yet ready, our design and custom/OEM service covers consultation on space planning, material selection and product specification, and we can produce drawings for your approval before production begins. For projects where the pattern has to be seen at full scale before sign-off, ask about a sample panel or prototype — this is the point at which pattern density, cut detail and the depth of the bronze tone become obvious.
We ask every buyer to confirm the drawings in writing before cutting. Laser cutting is unforgiving: once a panel is cut, the material cannot be reworked, and an approval trail protects both the site programme and your budget.
Lead Time, Packing and Delivered Price
Confirm at quotation stage whether the price is ex-factory or delivered to your project, and which leg of transport is included. We arrange sea, air and rail freight, export paperwork, packing and container loading, with tracking and door-to-door delivery available for project buyers. Panel size is planned around container loading as well as the wall, so a division that looks ideal on the drawing may be adjusted to travel better.
Screens ship in packed panels with fixings and installation guidance, and installation and after-sales support are available for project clients. Where your own contractors fit the screens, we supply setting-out information so the openings, floor fixings and ceiling details are prepared before the panels arrive.
Common Reasons a Quote Comes Back Wrong
- A reference photo with no dimensions — the pattern scale is then guessed, and the cut density looks wrong on a four-metre wall.
- Quoting a single overall size with no panel division, so different suppliers price different constructions.
- Vague wording such as "bronze" without stating the tone, sheen or whether it must match an existing metal finish on site.
- No information on how the screen fixes, which changes edge detailing and therefore the fabrication time.
- Delivery terms left open, so an apparently low quote becomes expensive once freight, duty and site delivery are added.
A Simple Brief Template You Can Copy
Project name and location · screen location within the building · overall width and height, plus recess or free-standing · number of panels preferred · pattern reference attached (yes/no) and repeat size · finish required and any metal to match · fixing method and adjacent materials · quantity · required delivery port or site address · your target programme date. Send that with two or three reference images and we can come back with a firm quotation for your decorative metal screen range, along with a proposed panel layout and, if needed, drawings for approval.
Because we manufacture furniture and building materials under one roof — from screens and wall panelling to lighting, flooring and cabinetry — buyers often place the partition screens together with the surrounding joinery and finishes in one project order. If your project needs that combination, mention it in the enquiry so the panel edges and adjacent materials are coordinated from the start.
