Fully Framed Shower Screens
Fully framed shower screens are a traditional and sturdy option for bathrooms, offering complete framing around all edges of the glass panels. These screens provide a secure, durable, and often more cost-effective solution compared to frameless or semi-framed options. Here’s a breakdown of fully framed shower screens:
Key Features:
-
Complete Framing: The glass panels are entirely enclosed within a metal frame, typically made of aluminum. This framing provides structural support and added stability to the screen.
-
Laminated Safety Glass: The glass used in fully framed screens is a 6.38mm thick laminated safety glass compared to the toughened glass used in frameless or semi-framed screens due to the additional support provided by the frame.
-
Versatile Designs: Fully framed screens come in various configurations, including sliding doors, pivot doors, and fixed panels, making them adaptable to different bathroom layouts and preferences.
-
Durability: The full frame adds significant strength to the structure, making it highly durable and resistant to everyday wear and tear.
-
Water Containment: The full frame helps to contain water effectively, reducing the risk of leaks. This makes fully framed screens a good choice for bathrooms where water containment is a primary concern.
Considerations:
-
Aesthetics: Fully framed screens have a more traditional look and can appear bulkier compared to semi-framed or frameless screens. This may not be ideal for those seeking a sleek, modern aesthetic.
-
Installation: Fully framed screens require professional installation to ensure a perfect fit.
-
Cost: These screens are typically more affordable than frameless and semi-framed options due to the use of laminated glass and the simpler design.
-
Maintenance: The frame can attract soap scum, mold, and mildew, particularly in the corners and joints. Regular cleaning is necessary to keep the screen looking its best.
-
Customizability: While fully framed screens are available in a variety of styles and finishes, they may offer less flexibility in design compared to frameless options.
Applications:
- Family Bathrooms: Ideal for high-use bathrooms where durability and water containment are key concerns.
- Rental Properties: The affordability and robustness of fully framed screens make them a popular choice for rental properties.
- Traditional Bathrooms: Works well in bathrooms with a more classic or traditional design aesthetic.
