Abstract
In a partition system partitions there are two or more doors, positioned side by side in a common plane. Adjacent doors have angled sides that meet when the doors are closed. Each door is attached to a post or partition by a pair of hinges and is mounted so that there is a space between each pair of adjacent doors. Any sight line through each space between adjacent doors when the front surfaces of those doors are parallel to the common plane will intersect one of the posts or one of the partitions. The hinges may provide an axis of rotation that is inward from the edge of the door. The partitions are preferably mounted on frame members that have an L-shaped or inverted T-shaped cross-section. The partitions have a slot along one side which receives the upright portion of the frame members.
