What Designers Need in a Custom Screen Spec Sheet Before Client Approval

Client approvals move faster when the screen recommendation is backed by a clear spec sheet instead of a loose inspiration board. Designers usually need more than a nice image. They need to show what the divider is for, how big it should be, and what level of finish or customization the room actually needs.

The core items every spec sheet should include

• Room type and intended role of the screen
• Approximate width, height, and target panel count
• Material or finish direction
• Reference images or product links
• Quantity, destination, and installation context

Why this matters before approval

Without this information, the client may approve the look but not the fit. With it, the conversation becomes much more grounded and easier to quote. This is especially important for villa, hospitality, and designer-led residential projects.

Conclusion

A strong spec sheet protects both design intent and project efficiency. It helps clients approve the right direction earlier, and it reduces the risk of choosing a piece that looks right in theory but not in the room.
