Considerations for Frameless Shower Screens

Blog

The decision on the shower screen that's right for you doesn't have to be a difficult one. There are plenty of options available, but you will never go wrong by choosing frameless shower screens. If you aren't sure whether the frameless option is right for you. Here are a few things that may probably change your mind.

Hygiene Concerns

A bathroom that isn't cleaned regularly and properly is prone to germs and bacteria. The metal frames in old showers that aren't cleaned properly act as breeding grounds for germs and bacteria. So, if you've got shower screens made of other material aside from glass, you can attract germs, which are not healthy.

A Wider Selection Option

While many frameless shower doors have similar characteristics, the enclosed types come in different designs. Apart from the way shower frames operate, they can be structured to fit the shape and size of your shower.

Some models feature simple hinges to open or close, while others lack the traditional door. The designs that do not feature a traditional door remain open every time you're using the bathroom. What's more, they take up less space compared to many shower framed doors. This means that you have different choices when it comes to additional accessories, shower head types and knobs.

Makes your bathroom look spacious

The frameless shower screens are a perfect choice for homeowners who have small bathrooms and are looking for ways to make them look modern and functional. The glass design makes the bathroom look more spacious, unlike the shower curtains that tend to break visibility.

Ease of Cleaning

The beauty of installing a frameless shower screen is that you'll find it easy to clean and maintain. After a quick shower, all you have to do is wipe it with a clean towel and you're done.

A Safer Design

The design aspects in a frameless shower play a significant role in promoting safety in your bathroom. A large number of homeowners tend to avoid glass enclosures because they are easy to break which can lead to injuries. However, it is important to note that the frameless shower screens are made from thick glass which is resistant to an even stronger impact.

The edges of many enclosures are treated, which eliminates the possibility of cuts and scrapes. Thanks to the precision in designing the shower screens, they are ideal for any type of bathroom even those designed for use by an individual with mobility devices.
