In recent years, glass has become a sought-after design item for a home or yard, and not just as a basic raw material for windows. Today we see that many people design their homes with elements that include glass. For example, glass railings, which are used not only to prevent falls and for safety, but as a design item for all intents and purposes, adding a luxurious look to a balcony. At Snapir, we supply and manufacture railings in a variety of types and raw materials, including aluminum, but also provide glass railings and glass wall coverings on demand.
The importance of glass throughout the home
At the same time, we see furniture that includes glass also common throughout the home, such as bathroom cabinets with glass sinks, living room display cabinets, and even showers made of glass. Showers can be used as a replacement for a bathtub or as an addition.
The shower allows for a comfortable shower in a relatively spacious area. There are two main types of shower enclosures that are common on the market today, both of which can be obtained from glass. These are front showers and corner showers, with the corner shower being the most common type in most homes, mainly because it is comfortable, practical, and does not take up much space.
It is important to mention the sliding shower, which in most homes includes plastic doors, but can also be obtained with high-quality glass doors. In this case, it is a front shower or corner shower, which works according to a simple principle – transverse sliding doors, not doors that open normally.
Just as there are trivial definitions for glass railings and fences, so too are shower enclosures – the minimum width of a shower enclosure should be 90 cm, in order to provide a pleasant and not too crowded feeling, but of course the shower enclosure can also be enlarged according to the existing space in the bathroom. It is important to ensure that the shower enclosure has high-quality glass, one that will not break or crack easily and is suitable for long-term use.
Today, it is possible to obtain glass designed for showers, in a variety of cuts and with different prints, according to demand and personalized. It should be noted that in addition to regular showers, the home glass market also includes bathtubs.
In fact, a bathtub is a combination of a shower and a bathtub, and is very commonly considered a product that was once supplied and called a shower with a basin. Today, it is a shower on a high basin, but lower than the height of a standard bathtub. The bathtub allows for a comfortable shower even for small children and does not take up much space.
