"Legacy Realty Co." Jean Hogan comments about Absolute Office of Oregon

“If your office flow is not working for you then John Dean is the answer! He helped Legacy Realty Co.com when new desks were needed. He not only helped with the design but installed it!! He is knowledgeable and carries the widest selection of office furniture and accessories imaginable and he provides the very best solutions, delivers on time and his customer follow-up is unmatched! If you and your staff are sitting on top of each other, if filing cabinets have taken over valuable space....give John a call...he can help!!”

Thank you Jean!!! It's great to work with another professional person that takes customer service seriously!

Why Movable Walls?

Why Movable Walls?
If you make a thorough comparison, you’ll see that you can achieve significant savings by implementing movable walls instead of drywall. When you add up complete project costs including those for installation, demolition, paint or coverings, hardware and the time required to install and reconfigure and all related hardware, you’ll see you come out ahead with movable walls. And of course, you get built-in flexibility that’s simply not possible with drywall. Compare for yourself.
Movable Walls:
Cost-competitive when you include all costs — doors, hardware, framing, trim, glazing and vinyl
Less expensive to install — only one trade required
No disposal costs on reconfiguration
Drywall:
May seem less expensive until you do a real "apples to apples” comparison
Higher installation costs — six or more trades plus supervision required
Reconfiguration requires disposal — adds to cost to the installation
Movable Walls:
Fast, clean installation
Pre-finished — no further painting or finishing needed
Less disruptive to employees — reduced absenteeism
Non-damaging to floors and ceilings
Drywall:
Slow, messy installation
Needs paint or other finishes — adds to time, costs, environmental considerations
Cannot be done with employees working nearby
Damages both floors and ceilings
Movable Walls:
Reconfiguration can be done in hours
Many choices of wall, glazing, and door types - specifying is easy
Drywall:
Reconfiguration takes weeks
Design choices will require planning, specifying and additional purchases
