How do I determine what I can do with my budget?
Given MetroWall’s broad range of products and options, budgets may vary quite significantly. We recommend speaking in more detail to understand the project requirements, project scope, timeline, hardware, finish, glass types, acoustic requirements, etc. We typically work with project stakeholders to find a solution that fits within the project’s requirements while balancing the budget. MetroWall solutions can range from a few hundred dollars to well over $1,000 per linear ft.
