If you're building a new home with an ensuite, this is your chance to add everything you want to the space. That includes choosing a new shower enclosure. In most cases, you have two options. You can choose between a framed shower enclosure and a frameless glass shower enclosure.


If you haven't added a frameless glass shower enclosure to the plans, it's time to do that. You might not realize it, but a frameless glass shower enclosure can take your ensuite to the next level of luxury and enjoyment. A frameless glass shower enclosure can also provide benefits you might not have considered. Here are six compelling reasons to include a frameless glass shower enclosure in the plans for your new ensuite. 


Make the Area Feel More Spacious


If you've decided on a traditional shower enclosure, it's time to think about usable space. One of the problems with a traditional shower enclosure is that it can take up a lot of space.


They can also make your ensuite look and feel more closed-in. Frameless glass shower enclosures are different. Because there is no bulky frame to get in the way, your bathroom feels more open and welcoming when you have a frameless glass shower enclosure. 


Enhance the Visual Appeal


If you want more of a sleek and modern design for your ensuite, a frameless glass shower enclosure is one of your best options. Frameless glass shower enclosures can create a more modern appearance for your ensuite.

This can enhance the visual appeal of your new ensuite. Plus, when you choose clear glass for your frameless shower enclosure, you can add features and accent pieces that add to the beauty of your new shower.

 

Bring in More Natural Light


If you're trying to reduce your dependence on artificial lighting in your home, start by adding windows and skylights to your ensuite plans. Then, add a frameless glass shower enclosure to the plans.


One of the benefits of a frameless glass shower enclosure is that it invites more light into your ensuite. Natural light lets you reduce your dependence on artificial light, especially in the ensuite. As an added benefit, natural light helps reduce moisture and mould growth. 


Improve the Accessibility


If you want to design a shower that's easy to access, talk to your glass contractor about designing a frameless glass shower enclosure for your new ensuite. Without the bulky frame, there are no ledges to step over.


This allows you to walk seamlessly into your new shower. This easy accessibility is especially beneficial when you have mobility constraints. But, it's also beneficial when you have young children. Young children have an easier time navigating a frameless shower enclosure. 


Ensure Customisation


If you're ready to create a truly unique design for your ensuite, choose a frameless glass shower enclosure. Most framed shower enclosures are designed to be one-size-fits-all. Unfortunately, that doesn't leave you with much room for customised features.


That's one of the benefits of choosing a frameless glass shower enclosure for your ensuite. You can custom design your frameless glass shower enclosure to create the perfect space for your new ensuite. 


Improve Cleanliness


If you want to spend less time on household chores, start with the right shower enclosure. Framed shower enclosures can be harder to keep clean, especially when you consider the tracks. Frameless glass shower enclosures are different. With frameless glass shower enclosures, you can wipe them clean after each shower. That way, they stay clean and sanitary.
