1. What is the difference between a real wall and a pressurized wall?
A real wall is permanently attached to the floor, walls and ceiling with screws and adhesives, creating an extremely messy and expensive repair cost for a removal. A pressurized wall does not have any screws or adhesives to hold it up hence no damage is done to the apartment.

4. The next tenants want the wall in the apartment, can we leave it for them?
MPW reserves the right to transfer the title of our pressurized partition to any future occupants, owners or managements for a fee pending on the product. Several NYC management companies request that the wall be removed regardless of the request. This can only be determined on an individual basis.

5. How much of the wall money is refunded to us?
Because we are under contractual obligation to remove the wall by you or the managements request also since you may paint the wall any color, mount or hang objects on the room divider, we have eliminated the need to collect any deposit.

6. Can the walls be transferred into another apartment?
No. Since the floors and ceilings are not consistently level, they cannot be transferred from one location to another.
We can however utilize a majority of the material and offer a better rate the second time around.
