Benefits of Frameless Shower Cubicle Screens
Frameless Shower Screens are more Attractive
If you have an old style screen in your bathroom, it probably has the familiar metal framing, and it might not be clear. Some of the old screens are frosted or textured, which limits visibility, and they include either a hinged or sliding door. With frameless shower screens, you don’t have the frames to worry about, and usually the glass is completely clear, which allows for more light in the room as well as a trendier look. It also means that other elements of the bathroom are accentuated including feature tiles and other bathroom fixtures.
They are easy to clean
The second benefit is that frameless bathroom screens are far easier to clean than the previous framed styles. For one thing, you don’t have the frames that, being aluminium, which could build up stains of different types. Clear glass doesn’t really attract stains, so usually just a good wipe down with a wet rag will be enough to get them clean.
Hygienically they are better for your family
Next up, the hygiene issue. Old style screens, especially those with metal frames, are a breeding ground for germs if they aren’t cleaned frequently. Also, if the screens were made of a different material than glass, that material could also be a germ magnet. Glass, however, is a non-porous surface that won’t harbour germs or bacteria. Also, with glass you won’t have to worry about mould and mildew and the musty odours they bring with them. A glass shower screen is certainly the most hygienic option for your Northern Beaches bathroom.
Frameless Shower Screens are more durable
Last but not least, we come to the issue of repairs. Most of the older style screens eventually give out, especially the frames. Sometimes you might have to do a little maintenance to keep the doors sliding smoothly. With frameless shower screens, you have durable glass doors and fittings which are designed to last a long time. This means you’ll have little or no maintenance to worry about.
