Woodlands Golf Club

Multifold partitions from Building Additions have just been installed at the newly refurbished Woodlands Golf and Country Club to enable the club to maximise its conference and wedding business.

The partitions were a key component in the quarter million pound refurbishment.Project designers Keith Lander Designs, had to create a multifunctional space in the clubhouse so that it could be used to generate business as well as providing a lounge area for golfers. “Multifold partitions were the perfect solution. They allow the clubhouse to be subdivided when required so that a variety of events can be hosted at once”, said Keith Lander.

The need for good acoustics was therefore important to the specification of the partitions, so that events could occur alongside each other without noise disturbance. Mr Lander explained, “ We were very impressed with the sound reduction properties of Building Additions’ Multifold partitions. We also knew that the company is experienced in high specification fields, like education, so the partitions would meet our high performance requirements.”

Five Multifold partitions were specified in a Cherry finish to complement the cherry wood bar and the modern-prestige design scheme.

The Multifold is ideal for when there is a need for the weight to be on the floor when the support structure is not load bearing. The system consists of continuously hinged panels that are locked into place every second panel. The last panel always operates as a communicating door and the system can either be single or Bi-parting. They have an acoustic seal at the floor and ceiling, achieving a sound reduction rating of 38dB - 45dB.

Commenting on the project, Woodlands owner David Knipe said, “ The Multifold partitions look really good and are easy to use, but more importantly they have made the clubhouse space more useable. This means we can achieve a higher turnover of events and capitalise on our prime conference location just off the M4/M5 near Aztec West.”
