I saw at a customer's place glass wall separators that don't need to be anchored in anything as the glass panes stand on some kind of heavy "feet." Very practical mobile solution! Attaching photo. The previous purchaser at the customer has left, so they do not know where it was bought... Checked a bunch of sites but haven't been able to find it. Does anyone recognize this "wall"?? Where can I get it??? Very grateful for any answers

Thank you Tobias for your comments. However, it is not duct tape, but decoration on the glass itself. The construction is very stable, hardly movable (you have to pull hard on the "feet" to move the whole thing and it's impossible to tip over!) have tested it. Does anyone know who sells this?!?
The base could very well be very heavy. And as long as you try to move the entire setup at the bottom, it is likely stable enough. But if you start to press a bit on that glass panel at the top, either the whole thing will tip over, or the glass panel will crack at the attachment to the base. That's where the greatest moment occurs.
As I mentioned, it's duct tape between the two glass parts I was referring to.
For it to be a strong solution, the glass would need a "support frame" in steel to protect the glass from bending moments and high frequencies (impacts with hard surfaces) and the feet (as I see have pre-drilled holes) would need to be screwed into the ground.
That would be difficult to pass a CE marking and wouldn't be sold within the EU unless it's extraordinarily strong glass... If I were to guess based on your picture.
Justus is skilled at calculations. He can probably explain well to you why that solution is fragile

Thank you for everyone's input! I will bring these up with the supplier to potentially frame the glass as suggested here! I thought that the mobility and lack of need to impact the surrounding environment is a big advantage. You can divide workspaces freely and easily. Just need to find this Supplier .....
Check with a glazier. They have catalogs with various (very expensive) fittings. I'm convinced that those feet are part of some fitting series. You can order the glass itself from the glazier. Purchasing tempered laminated glass is surprisingly cheap, but the fittings...
If I had to guess, you could buy the glass for under 1000 SEK, but maybe 5000 for the foot.

Is it autocorrect that's been at work on the title? Ice cream-road-divider isn't quite what the thread is about
