What is the ideal height for an indoor claustra?

The height of an indoor claustra generally ranges between 180 cm and 250 cm, depending on the intended use. For a space-divider effect while maintaining openness, a height of 200 cm is an excellent compromise.

Common height options include:

  • 180 to 200 cm: ideal for defining a space without fully closing it off
  • 220 to 250 cm: for a more pronounced separation, reaching near the ceiling
  • 150 to 180 cm: suitable for low ceilings, decorative purposes, or half-height claustra

The choice depends on the ceiling height, the desired visual effect, and the claustra's function. A claustra that’s too tall may visually weigh down the space, while a model that’s too short may not effectively divide it.
