Framery Four meeting pod in a dimly lit space

    3 products

    Open-plan offices solved collaboration and created a noise problem. Framery publishes ISO 23351-1 test figures for every pod in the range, which not every supplier does, and Chair Dinkum is an authorised Australian Framery dealer.

    Choosing a pod size

    Framery One and One Compact are single-person booths for calls and focused work, and the Compact is the one to specify when floor space is tight. Framery Four is a meeting pod for up to four people, and suits teams that need a bookable space for video calls without building a room.

    Framery prices and quotes

    Indicative pricing is $14,200 for the Framery One Compact, $19,600 for the Framery One and $31,800 for the Framery Four. The final figure depends on layout, finish, connectivity options, delivery location, site access and installation scope. Typical timeframes are about 2 weeks for in-stock pods, about 6 to 8 weeks for made-to-order pods and 2 to 4 hours to install each pod, subject to site and product availability and confirmed in your quotation. For multi-pod orders we work from your floor plan and give you a delivery and installation sequence alongside the price.

    Acoustics are the specification that matters

    All three pods are rated Class A, 30 DS,A dB speech level reduction under ISO 23351-1 — the standard that measures the assembled pod rather than a single wall panel. If you are comparing suppliers, ask every one of them for that figure and the acoustic class, because a bare decibel number with no standard named is usually a laboratory measurement of one panel and is not comparable. Our brand-neutral guide to comparing acoustic pods explains how to read the numbers.

    Specifying pods for a neuroinclusion brief

    Where the brief asks for a floor that offers people more than one kind of place to work, the decisions that matter are placement and quantity rather than model — the acoustic rating is identical across the three pods. Our guide to Framery pods and neuroinclusion sets out what you can actually specify and measure, why a single designated quiet room usually goes unused, and the five things that decide whether the pods on your floor plan get booked.

    What it costs to own, not just to buy

    Pods get bought on a capital line and then quietly cost money nobody budgeted. Our guide to what a Framery pod costs to own sets out the cost per person per year, what falls due after the invoice, the warranty cliff at year three, and how the arithmetic compares with building a meeting room — written for the conversation you will have with finance rather than the one you have with facilities.

    Warranty: read the component breakdown, not the headline

    Framery's warranty is often quoted as a flat five years. It is not. Cover runs 5 years on structure and standard parts, 2 years on wear parts (gas lifts, levelling gliders, fabrics, felt, carpet, door, door seals, hinges, locks), 2 years on electronics (LED lighting, fans, power and USB chargers, wireless chargers, screens, motion sensors, motor-driven height adjustment), and 1 year on Framery Connect sensors.

    Two conditions decide whether that cover is live: the warranty must be activated by completing Framery's installation report form, and the pod must be installed by a Framery-trained installer, or Framery is not obliged to remedy defects. Defects must be reported within 21 days of discovery.

    This is the practical reason to buy through an authorised dealer. We complete the installation report and use Framery-trained installers as a matter of course, so your warranty is active from day one. Ask any grey-market supplier you are comparing how they handle both — a pod installed outside those terms is an uncovered pod. Whoever you buy from, put it in the specification: name the installer, and require the completed installation report as a handover deliverable alongside the O&M documentation. This warranty is in addition to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, and full terms for every brand we carry are on our warranty page.

    Before you order: what your certifier will ask

    Pods are often sold as furniture that needs no approval. In New South Wales that is no longer a safe assumption: Building Commission NSW practice advice published 24 January 2025 states that office pods are rooms rather than furniture, and that their installation is to be treated as building work. Expect your certifier to look at fire services, egress and accessibility, room height inside the pod, ventilation and light, and whether the pod attenuates the building's occupant warning system — a pod good enough for Class A speech privacy is also good at muffling an alarm, so get it tested with the door shut. We supply the technical documentation, dimensions, weights and power requirements your consultants need, and tell you plainly when a question belongs to your building surveyor or fire engineer.

    Fit-out and delivery

    Pods require site access planning, and installation is carried out by trained installers. A Framery Four weighs 520 kg assembled and arrives as two crates, the heavier one 395 kg and 2.26 m long — so the lift, not the loading dock, is usually the constraint. Our guide to getting a Framery pod into your building sets out the verified weights, crate sizes, clearances, room heights and floor loading for all three pods. On the floor, allow for the 180-degree door swing, keep the pod clear of pedestrian routes, accessible paths, fire equipment and exits, and place it near the people who need it.

    For multi-pod orders, floor plans and lead times, see our guide to specifying Framery pods for Australian fit-outs, the Framery specification guide, or contact us for a project quote.

    Servicing and looking after your pods

    A pod's acoustic performance depends on a compressible door seal meeting a correctly aligned door, and both wear. Our Framery pod care and maintenance guide covers what to clean with what, the checks worth doing quarterly, and what will void your warranty if you do it yourself. If a pod has already stopped being private, this diagnostic guide explains the five usual causes and how to tell them apart.

    We service, repair and relocate Framery pods Australia-wide, including pods bought from another supplier.

    How to choose the right Framery pod for your office

    Selecting the ideal soundproof pod depends on your team's specific needs and available floor space. For quick private calls and short tasks, the Framery One Compact takes up just one square metre of floor space and fits into tight corners or corridor ends. Professionals who spend extended periods on video calls or need uninterrupted focus time benefit from the larger Framery One, which includes a height-adjustable desk (74 to 116 cm) and optional lounge configuration. When your team needs a private meeting space without the cost of building a room, the Framery Four seats up to four people, with a full-sized table and sofas in the Lite and Essentials layouts, and 65 W USB-C charging in the Essentials layout.

    Class A acoustics: what 30 dB speech level reduction actually means

    All Framery pods achieve a Class A speech level reduction of 30 DS,A (dB), measured to the ISO 23351-1 standard. In practical terms, this means a normal conversation inside the pod cannot be understood by someone standing directly outside. That is Class A under ISO 23351-1: a measured figure under the standard rather than a marketing adjective. The standard's scale also includes an A+ band above 33 dB. The patent-pending acoustic structure is specifically tuned to human speech frequencies, making Framery pods effective even in quiet offices where lower-rated booths would still allow conversations to leak through. For Australian workplaces dealing with open-plan noise complaints, this level of sound isolation eliminates the need for expensive built-out rooms.

    Framery Smart: built-in intelligence that improves over time

    Every Framery pod includes occupancy sensors, a touchscreen and built-in 4G connectivity: mmWave radar sensors and an 8-inch touchscreen in the One Compact and Four, and an ultrasonic sensor and a 5-inch touchscreen in the One. The sensors detect when someone enters or leaves, automatically adjusting lighting and ventilation. The 4G connection enables over-the-air software updates, meaning your pod gains new features without any manual intervention. Pods can be connected to your company calendar so your team can book them, and the Framery Connect platform provides anonymous occupancy data so you can see exactly how your pods are being used. New pod owners receive a complimentary 3-month Plus subscription covering all smart features.

    National delivery and professional installation across Australia

    As an authorised Framery dealer, Chair Dinkum provides complete end-to-end service for your acoustic pod investment. We deliver nationally across Australia, directly to your office floor. Our Framery-trained installers handle the full installation: assembly, power connection and smart system setup. We remove all packaging and provide a comprehensive handover so your team can start using their new pods immediately. Whether it is a single pod or a multi-site rollout, we manage the logistics from order to first use.

    Sustainability and materials

    Framery pods are designed with longevity and environmental responsibility in mind. 95% of the materials in the Framery One can be recycled at end of life. The latest generation uses 23% less material than previous models while maintaining the same acoustic performance. Construction uses certified wood, recycled steel, recycled aluminium, and recycled polyester fabric. Framery holds an EcoVadis Silver medal for sustainability and provides full Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for transparency. The pods are built to be upgraded rather than replaced, with modular components that can be refreshed as your office evolves.

    Ventilation and air quality

    Unlike cheaper office booths that rely on passive ventilation, Framery pods feature active, sensor-driven airflow systems. The Framery One Compact delivers up to 36 litres per second of fresh air, while the Framery Four provides up to 100 litres per second with directional airflow control. Sensors inside each pod continuously monitor temperature and humidity, automatically optimising ventilation to maintain a comfortable working environment. This means no stuffiness, no CO2 build-up, and no need to open the door between uses. The system is quiet enough that it does not interfere with calls or concentration.

    Frequently asked questions about Framery pods

    What makes Framery pods different from cheaper office booths?

    Framery pods achieve a speech level reduction of 30 dB, which is Class A under ISO 23351-1. Many budget booths claim "soundproof" without independent testing. Framery also includes smart connectivity (4G, sensors, touchscreen), active ventilation, and Framery's manufacturer warranty (five years on materials and workmanship, with shorter periods for wear parts, electronics and Connect sensors). The build quality and acoustic engineering justify the price difference for businesses that need genuine privacy.

    How long does delivery and installation take?

    Typical timeframes: in-stock pods are delivered in around 2 weeks, and made-to-order pods in around 6 to 8 weeks. Installation typically takes 2 to 4 hours per pod. All timeframes are subject to site and product availability and are confirmed in your quotation. Chair Dinkum handles delivery and installation by Framery-trained installers across Australia. Request a Framery quote.

    Can the ventilation and lighting be adjusted inside the pods?

    Yes. All Framery pods feature automatic environmental controls via occupancy sensors (mmWave radar in the One Compact and Four, ultrasonic in the One) that detect occupancy and adjust accordingly. Users can also manually control lighting brightness and ventilation speed via the built-in touchscreen (8-inch in the One Compact and Four, 5-inch in the One). The LED lighting has a 4000K colour temperature. Video call mode optimises face lighting for camera quality.

    Is the Framery One Compact suitable for long video calls?

    The Framery One Compact is designed for calls up to 30 to 45 minutes. For extended video conferencing or deep focus work lasting several hours, we recommend the larger Framery One, which offers more interior space, a height-adjustable desk, and optional lounge seating for greater comfort during longer sessions.

    Do Framery pods come with a warranty?

    Yes. Framery warrants its pods against defects in material and workmanship for five years from delivery. Wear parts (such as gas lifts, levelling gliders, fabrics, carpet, the door, door seals, hinges and locks) and electronic components (such as LED lights, fans, chargers, screens and motion sensors) are covered for two years, and Framery Connect sensors for one year. Software is supplied without warranty. The warranty must be activated by completing Framery's installation report, the pod must be installed by a Framery-trained installer, and defects must be notified within 21 days of discovery. Read Framery's full warranty terms.

    Can Framery pods be moved to a new office?

    Yes. Framery pods are designed to be disassembled and relocated. The modular construction means they can be taken apart, moved to a new floor or building, and reassembled without compromising acoustic performance. Chair Dinkum can arrange professional relocation services if required.

    What power supply do Framery pods need?

    All Framery pods require a single standard Australian 240V power outlet within 7 metres of the pod location (the power cord length). The Framery One Compact consumes just 27W in normal use, and the Framery Four uses 52W. Framery states that its pods can be plugged into a standard wall socket.

    Is Chair Dinkum an authorised Framery dealer?

    Yes. Chair Dinkum is an authorised Australian Framery dealer. We provide genuine Framery products with full manufacturer warranty, professional installation, and ongoing after-sales support. Visit our Sydney showroom to experience the pods in person or call 02 9640 0642 for expert advice.
