Nonprogressive vs. Progressive Wall Systems

Nonprogressive Designs are More Flexible

When buying a modular building system an important feature to look for is a nonprogressive design.

A nonprogressive system is the most flexible. This design allows you to access an individual panel and replace it without disturbing adjacent panels. If you need to swap locations of doors, windows or solid panels you can do that easily. If a panel is damaged, you can remove that panel and replace it.

National Partitions systems have the advantage of being nonprogressive.

A progressive wall is installed in a sequence. It has a one-piece connection system (like a sideways H) that will not allow the removal of a single wall panel without removing adjacent panels. Changing the location or replacing a panel can be very labor intensive and disruptive. Progressive systems defeat the advantages of buying a modular design.
