WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SHOWER SCREEN SUPPORT BAR
Shower support bars are metal rods installed at the top of frameless shower glass panels to add extra support and prevent them from swaying or moving.
Where to use?
Shower screen support arms are utilized in frameless showers when a frameless shower glass is hinged to the wall, and the other side has no fixed objects.
Bracing bar types
Bracing bars are available in two main styles:
Glass-to-Ceiling Support Bar Glass-to-Wall Support Bar
The advantages of shower screen stabilizer bar
They offer stability to the shower: Frameless shower constructions consist of thick, heavy-tempered glass panels. Without proper support, these panels may shift or even dislodge. Shower screen support bars prevent such mishaps by providing a secure foundation for the glass panels.
They distribute weight evenly: As shower stabilizer bars are horizontally installed along the wall, they evenly distribute the weight of the glass panels. This prevents any one panel from bearing excessive weight, which could lead to cracking or breakage.
They enhance safety: The stability offered by shower bar stabilizers not only prevents glass panel displacement but also reduces the risk of injury. A properly supported frameless shower is far safer to use than an unstable one.
They prolong shower life: By providing stability and preventing glass panel damage, shower bar stabilizers can extend the lifespan of a frameless shower. This reduces the need for costly repairs or replacements in the long run.
They enhanced waterproofing: Our shower screen support bars are designed with advanced waterproofing features to ensure long-lasting durability even in the wettest shower environments. This helps to prevent rusting and corrosion over time, maintaining the structural integrity of the support bars and contributing to the overall longevity of your shower.
Considerations before purchasing a shower stabilization bar
When selecting a shower stabilizer bar, consider the size and weight of the glass panels, as well as the shower’s overall design. Some bars may be better suited for larger or heavier panels, while others may be more appropriate for smaller or lighter ones.
Please note the diameter and thickness of the rod, typically we use diameters of 16mm and 19mm, and wall thickness can be 2.0mm, 1.5mm, and 1.0mm. A diameter of 19mm with a thickness of 2mm is suitable for heavy-duty glass, a diameter of 16mm with a thickness of 1.5mm is suitable for medium-duty glass, and a diameter of 16mm with a thickness of 1.0mm is suitable for light-duty glass.
How to install a shower support arm
Attach the bar to the shower glass using the provided fixings and extend it to the wall. Ensure the bar is level using a spirit level, then mark the hole locations on the wall. Drill holes were marked and secure the support bar to the wall.
