Your project in the canton of Obwalden
Obwalden is a mountain canton centred on Lake Sarnen and the valley leading up to the Brünig Pass. Sarnen, the main town, has shops, apartment blocks and family homes, while Sachseln and Giswil stretch along the lake with chalets and farmhouses. Higher up, Lungern overlooks its own lake, and Kerns lies on a sunny plateau. Engelberg, separate from the rest of the canton, is a mountain resort consisting mainly of chalets, second homes and hotels, with a long, snowy winter. Although the canton is German-speaking, you can easily write your request in English. For a traditional chalet or an extension, ask the municipality about the applicable rules. Give the village or town and postcode and, for a second home, the periods when a property visit can be arranged.
- In Engelberg, say whether the property is a second home and when tradespeople can access it.
- For a chalet on a slope, say whether a lorry can get close or whether materials must be carried.
- If your house is near Lake Sarnen, mention any damp problems in the basement.
Interior glazed partitions in the canton of Obwalden
In the canton of Obwalden, family homes in Sarnen, by the lake, are often renovated to offer more open living spaces. Between kitchen and living room, a glazed partition keeps the sense of space while limiting noise and smells. In Engelberg, holiday studios and second homes use one to create a separate sleeping area. Higher up the valley, timber farmhouses and chalets need a frame that adapts to walls that are rarely plumb. For an old building, the municipality will be able to tell you whether a procedure is necessary. In a condominium, any shared wall requires the administrator's agreement.
- In a holiday studio, a partition with an integrated curtain or frosted glass in the lower part preserves the privacy of the sleeping area.
- For an old chalet, have any out-of-plumb walls surveyed: the frame will be made to measure rather than chosen from a standard range.

Frequently asked questions
What details should I send with a glass partition request in Obwalden?
Send the approximate dimensions of the opening, a few photos of the room and the type of wall involved. State the style you want, the frame material and the type of glass, for example clear, frosted or laminated. This allows the company to plan a site visit and suggest a suitable design.
Can an existing wall be opened for a glass partition?
Send available plans and explain whether the opening already exists. A load-bearing wall needs assessment before alterations; the partition specification alone cannot establish structural feasibility. Ask who will arrange any structural study and preparation of the surrounding wall.
What should I compare in glass partitions quotes?
Compare frame profiles, glass specification, opening mechanism and the finish around the partition. Establish whether wall preparation, painting and final measurements are included, rather than comparing a supplied frame with a complete fitted partition.
How should I prepare for the glass partitions visit or work?
Clear the measuring area and identify radiators, sockets or other services near the proposed opening. Choose the door movement with furniture positions in mind, and agree how the occupied room will be protected during fitting.
