The style of the shower room has been determined, and the hardware accessories must not be inferior. These accessories truly determine the quality of the shower room's use.

一、glass
Glass is the primary factor determining the safety of a shower room, and many safety accidents occur due to poor selection of glass.
It is best to choose laminated insulated glass for glass, just like laminated glass with broken bridge aluminum. The hardness of laminated glass is 5 times that of ordinary tempered glass, but the cost of laminated glass is also higher than that of ordinary glass. Usually, most businesses still recommend the form of tempered glass and explosion-proof film. However, tempered glass inevitably carries the risk of self explosion, so when choosing, people should try to choose glass produced by large factories with quality assurance. When making a purchase, it is also important to check if there is a 3C logo on the glass. In addition, judging the quality of glass also depends on its thickness. The thickness of glass is not necessarily the thicker the better. Being too thick can lead to poor thermal conductivity and increase the pressure on hardware accessories. The best thickness is between 6mm and 8mm. If sliding the door, it is recommended to reduce the pressure on the lower sliding rail by using glass with a lower thickness.
二、Profile
Besides glass, the most important aspect of a shower room is its profile. Once the profile is selected, it will not cause any inconvenience during later use.
三、Hardware
Glass poses a risk of self explosion, and the load-bearing hardware frame also affects the probability of glass self explosion. Due to the long-term exposure of shower rooms to humid environments, it is recommended to choose stainless steel materials for hardware, which can effectively prevent water and bathroom products from corroding the hardware.
四、Water bar
Water blocking strips, also known as stone bases, are used under shower rooms to effectively control the flow area of shower water. Whether the stone foundation is installed well or not determines whether the bathroom will be flooded with water.
It is best to embed the stone foundation before tiling the shower room, so as to ensure the waterproof effect of the shower room. If your home has already been tiled, then the only solution is to directly apply glass glue. Although this can provide water blocking effect in the early stage, after prolonged soaking, the glue strip is likely to age and the sealing performance will also decrease.
五、Adhesive tape
The rubber strip is installed on the frame of the shower room as a waterproof tool, which can effectively prevent water leakage at the connection of the shower room. At the same time, the rubber strip also serves to protect the glass and prevent it from self explosion. Poor quality rubber strips will turn yellow or even peel off after prolonged use, affecting the waterproof effect.
When choosing a rubber strip, you can check its toughness and surface permeability. Poor quality rubber strips will be harder.
