Abstract: Let $Gamma$ be a graph product of finite groups, with finite underlying graph, and let $Delta$ be the associated right-angled building. We prove that a uniform lattice $Lambda$ in the cubical automorphism group Aut$(Delta)$ is weakly commensurable to $Gamma$ if and only if all convex subgroups of $Lambda$ are separable. As a corollary, any two finite special cube complexes with universal cover $Delta$ have a common finite cover. An important special case of our theorem is where $Gamma$ is a right-angled Coxeter group and $Delta$ is the associated Davis complex. We also obtain an analogous result for right-angled Artin groups. In addition, we deduce quasi-isometric rigidity for the group $Gamma$ when $Delta$ has the structure of a Fuchsian building.
