Temporary Walls for Data Centers
STARC’s solutions lead the way in temporary walls for data centers, offering unmatched speed and precision for modern data center needs. Designed for rapid installation, airtight connections, and reusability, these hot-aisle containment walls are ideal for protecting sensitive equipment during environmental testing, commissioning, and reconfigurations. Whether for phased fit-outs, hot-aisle containment system testing, or the reconfiguration of leased and co-location server spaces, STARC walls outperform drywall and caged solutions by reducing disruption, improving efficiency, and supporting sustainability.
Applications
Data Center Construction Walls for Hot Aisle Containment Fit Outs
STARC’s LiteBarrier™ construction walls are perfectly suited for fast set-up, frequent reconfiguration and airtight panel to panel connections. Create temporary hot-aisle containment spaces for test-as-you-go integrated systems testing that mimic heating and cooling needs of major data halls.
Using Temporary Walls for Phased Data Hall Turnover.
When your construction plans call for fit-outs with phased turnovers, STARC’s reusable wall systems create partitions and separate a completed data hall phase from those still under construction.
STARC’s Reusable Dust Barriers Protect and Secure Servers During Co-location Reconfigurations
Major data centers with leasing tenants can protect and secure existing tenants’ servers and equipment while preparing and reconfiguring space for new clients. We call it “undisrupted co-location.”

FAQs About Data Center Construction Walls and Containment Systems
What is a temporary hot aisle containment (HAC)?
Temporary construction walls for HAC buildouts are part of a build strategy. Builders and owners alike benefit from test-as-you-go heating and cooling integrated systems testing for greenlighting the revenue-generating data halls in phases. STARC’s LiteBarrier is an alternative to wasteful traditional stick-built partitions that require weeks of labor and significant coordination with subcontractors.
Can STARC walls support hot-aisle containment buildouts in data centers?
LiteBarrier and StackBarrier are practical alternatives for temporary hot-aisle containment sections within a phased data hall buildout. Assemble and disassemble with ease.
How can STARC walls improve sustainable construction and energy efficiency in data centers?
Durable by design, STARC’s award-winning temporary construction walls stand the test of time. Long-time customers report dozens, sometimes hundreds of re-uses. Every 100 feet of STARC temporary walls used saves an estimated 5 tons of landfill wastes. That’s a great sustainable construction win!
Can STARC walls protect tenant equipment during renovations or reconfigurations create temporary enclosures for servers and equipment?
