# Decorative metal partitions, panels and grilles

Short answer

Craftarea develops laser-cut metal panels and decorative partitions in Tbilisi from an approved pattern and site dimensions. Pattern density, connecting sections, material and fixing points affect both appearance and practical construction. Supply the opening size and location photographs, and confirm the supporting frame, finish and installation requirements as part of the project.

A cut-out pattern can be used for an interior partition, wall decoration or illuminated panel. Dimensions, remaining bridges, material and supporting fixings jointly determine the result. Send Craftarea a drawing and site dimensions; thickness, available sheet format and processing are confirmed for the project. A protective or load-bearing element also needs an appropriate structural assessment.

## Key facts

Thickness — decor panel

Based on panel size and pattern

Thickness — structural grille

Defined by structural requirements; thickness alone is insufficient

Cutting tolerance

Tolerance by specification

Minimum cut geometry

Holes and slots assessed from the drawing

Typical max size per module

Confirm sheet format, transport and fixings

Materials

3 core — mild steel, stainless, aluminium

Minimum order

State panel quantity; acceptance confirmed

Turnaround

Timing by agreement

## What is the difference between a partition, a panel and a grille?

A partition divides space; a wall panel creates a decorative accent; a grille covers an opening and may have a protective role. A visually similar pattern does not imply identical construction for these uses. Assess dimensions, remaining bridge widths, frame, fixings and expected loads. Suitability for stairs, balconies or protective openings cannot be established from sheet thickness alone.

## Which metal works best for a decorative panel?

Mild steel needs corrosion protection outdoors. For stainless steel assess grade and exposure; for aluminium consider lower weight and required rigidity. Copper and brass provide decorative surfaces that change over time. Confirm available sheet, thickness and cutting feasibility together with the pattern and dimensions.

- Mild steel — suitable coating outdoors
- Stainless steel — corrosion resistance depends on grade and exposure
- Aluminium — low weight; assess fixings and rigidity
- Copper and brass — confirm finish, thickness and maintenance
- In Georgian, ლითონი and მეტალი are two names for the same material — both are used interchangeably here

## How does LED backlighting work on a metal panel?

For backlighting, plan wall clearance, LED position and pattern openings together. Lighting output, surface and viewing angle affect the result. One thickness or standoff distance is not suitable for every project. Mark lighting requirements in the sketch and confirm electrical work, components, fixings and installation separately.

## How are partitions and grilles mounted in place?

Wall decoration, a freestanding partition and a facade grille need different fixings. Agree frame material, fixing points and holes in the drawing. Confirm who makes the frame, finishes the edges and installs the structure. The offer should specify whether handover includes a cut panel or the complete construction.

## Why a laser-cut panel instead of a welded grille?

A pattern cut from sheet and a grille assembled by bending or welding offer different design possibilities. A vector file helps repeat the contour, although repeatability and accuracy depend on the process. Compare weight, open area, bridge strength, edge finishing and mounting when choosing.

## Module layout before fabrication

For a large partition, mark module boundaries, pattern continuation and opening clearances on a dimensioned sketch. Number every module and identify its visible face. Check the delivery access, doorway and mounting surface against the final panel dimensions. Approval of a decorative pattern does not replace the engineering assessment of a protective construction.

## Application options — thickness and fixings must be assessed for the project

| Type | Thickness selection | Material | Purpose | Mounting |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Interior partition | Per construction requirements | Mild steel / aluminium | Visually dividing a space | Frame between floor and ceiling |
| Wall decor panel | Per construction requirements | Mild steel / aluminium / stainless | Wall accent | Standoff bolts on the wall |
| Backlit panel | Per construction requirements | Mild steel / aluminium | LED-lit ornament accent | Clearance based on lighting and fixings |
| Staircase or railing infill | Per construction requirements | Mild steel / stainless | Railing component — structural assessment required | Bolted to the railing frame |
| Facade / balcony grille | Per construction requirements | Mild steel / stainless | Exterior element — protective function assessed separately | Welded or bolted frame |

## How It Works

1. 1

   ### Define the application

   Tell us where the piece goes — interior partition, wall decor, backlit panel or exterior grille. That determines material, thickness and the fixing method.
2. 2

   ### File preparation

   Send DXF, AI or SVG; if no file is available, agree sketch preparation. Small openings and remaining bridges are checked together with material thickness.
3. 3

   ### Confirm material and thickness

   Select material and thickness for dimensions, pattern and structural requirements; confirm availability and price in advance.
4. 4

   ### CNC laser cutting

   Agree the production method for the pattern’s small features, panel dimensions and fixing holes.
5. 5

   ### Finishing and handover

   Confirm edge finishing, holes, coating, included components and collection or delivery terms.

## Frequently Asked Questions

What thickness of metal do I need for a partition or panel?

Thickness depends on dimensions, open area, remaining bridges, frame and loads. Assess a decorative panel and a protective grille separately; final thickness and fabrication feasibility are confirmed from the drawing.

Can I send my own ornament file?

Send DXF, AI or SVG with closed contours and dimensions. Minimum openings and bridge widths are confirmed for the thickness. Any sketch preparation and its cost are agreed separately.

Will a mild steel panel survive outdoors?

Unprotected mild steel rusts outdoors. Choose coating, preparation and maintenance for the exposure. Confirm availability, provider and price of galvanizing, painting or other treatment in advance.

How long does a decorative panel take to make?

Timing depends on material availability, pattern complexity, module count, coating and frame. Include the required date with the file; agree fabrication, additional work and delivery after reviewing the complete project.

Can a large partition be made as a single piece?

It depends on available sheet, processing, transport and installation. A large partition may need modules. Agree joint positions, visibility and the frame in the sketch beforehand.

How is the price of a decorative panel calculated?

Price depends on material, thickness, pattern contours, panel quantity, edge finishing, coating and fixings. Request a quote for the drawing and clarify the included frame, installation and delivery scope.

What is the minimum order?

State panel quantity and whether a sample is needed. Acceptance of a small order, any minimum charge and batch pricing are confirmed separately.

Does the panel need extra finishing before mounting?

That depends on the agreed scope. Confirm edge cleanup, coating, fixing holes and the installer in the offer so any remaining site work is clear.
