We’ve been in the custom sign business in Ontario for over 10 years and we'd love to share our expertise and experience with you. Over the course of the pandemic, we have been creating Plexiglas Barriers to help keep businesses safe.
Now, let’s take a look at the key points that you should look for when choosing which kind of plexiglass barrier for desk is best for your business.
Custom plexiglass barrier for desk
Given the current pandemic, plexiglass barriers are essential for almost every business. You can find them at offices, stores, drive-thrus, and restaurants. They are everywhere!
They are a form of extra protection, in addition to masks and hand sanitizers, to make sure your workers and customers are safe from COVID-19.
Plexiglass barriers bring peace of mind for you, your workers, clients, and customers. They show people that you care about not just your safety, but everyone else’s too.
What kind do I get?
There are so many different types of desks out there that plexiglass barriers are suited for. Today, we will go over what kind of plexiglass you should get and how AGC Signs can customize them specifically for your desk and install them for you!
how big should plexiglass be?
Trying to determine how big or thick plexiglass barriers should be is very tricky. It is all different depending on what you will be using them for. Are you using them for the office? Are you using them for the store desk? Are you using them for the protection of customers? Are you using them for the protection of other employees? It all depends on your situation.
We believe that plexiglass barriers for desks should be thick and sturdy. I am sure we have all seen some out there that look as thin as a piece of paper. However, AGC makes high-quality, thick barriers (about 2 inches) to provide sufficient protection.
According to the National Collaborating Centre for Environmental Health, plexiglass barriers should cover at least a radius of 12” for a respected breathing space. This provides a cushion of air and separates people from one another.
Key Tips:
should be 2” thick
should cover/create a bubble with a radius of 12”
How to Install Plexiglass Barriers?
There are many different ways to install plexiglass barriers. You may have seen some stores that have their barriers loosely hanging from the ceiling.
We believe that plexiglass barriers should be solid and firm by attaching them to the desk or a nearby wall. You can view on our website or even in this post that all of our plexiglass barriers are attached to a solid surface.
We will make sure that:
the plexiglass barrier is custom-made for your desk.
If you need a slot so you can interact with your customers, we got you covered.
if you need to attach it from your wall to a cabinet, we will make it fit.
Our number one priority is making sure you and everyone around you feel safe.
