I think we can consider these three aspects when buying bathroom hardware. First, it should be suitable and easy to use. Second, it should consider the firmness and durability. Third, it should consider the style and style matching of the bathroom.
1) Applicable and easy to use
The first point is to choose according to the installation position of the bathroom accessories. If you want to install it in the corner connected by the two walls, choose the triangular shelf. In other words, depending on where your bathroom is reserved, choose the appropriate pendant according to the corresponding position. The second point is to choose the appropriate size. If only one person uses it, it is estimated that only one towel 30 cm long towel rod is enough. If it is two people, it may need 60 cm or longer towel rods. If it is multiple people, it may need double rods or multiple towel rods.
2) Firm and durable
As for the firmness, most of the hardware pendants are drilled, then plugged with rubber pads and fixed with screws. There is basically no problem with the firmness. What’s the problem? The problem lies in the screws. Everyone is used to paying attention to the material of the pendant, but no one pays attention to the quality of the screws. Good screws are made of 304 stainless steel, which is durable and will not rust, but they are basically equipped with iron screws on the market. Some iron screws are treated with rust prevention, such as a layer of copper or a layer of zinc on the screw. This iron screw has certain corrosion resistance. The iron screws without any treatment will be corroded in a year or so in the humid environment of the bathroom.
In terms of durability, we mainly consider corrosion. Space aluminum pendant and 304 stainless steel pendant have good corrosion resistance, and their surface treatment is relatively simple, which will not be discussed in detail here. For Brass electroplating products, their own positioning is high-grade, and the process requirements are relatively high, so when purchasing, we should pay special attention to the surface electroplating process. Brass pendant is basically directly plated, which is different from faucet. Direct plating is only acid copper. The problems of pendant material and polishing are easy to show on the electroplating layer. If the pendant material is impure and there are many sand holes and impurities, the electroplated layer is easy to appear sand holes or pits. If the polishing is uneven, the surface electroplated layer can also be reflected. When purchasing high-grade copper electroplating products, remember to put the products under the light to see the electroplating process.
Style matching
In terms of collocation, I think if you have bought a square basin, a square faucet and a square shower, then you can buy a square bathroom accessories, which may be more harmonious and beautiful as a whole. It is suggested that the overall design should be handled by the designer.
1. Space aluminum
Because the surface of space aluminum is alumina, the color will be gray, which is not as bright as stainless steel and chrome plated brass, but it is also warmer and softer. It will be a good choice in the warm retro style home decoration.
Therefore, if the bathroom uses a large number of white tiles to enhance the lighting, I’m afraid it’s a little out of place to choose space aluminum. If it is the overall soft gray tile wall, space aluminum will be more comfortable to use.
2. Stainless steel
The color of stainless steel hardware is brighter than space aluminum, and its material characteristics make it a little tough, so it perfectly fits the home of industrial style.
3. Chrome plated brass
Chrome plated brass is the brightest among them. The chrome plated layer improves the brightness of hardware to a very high level, which is very suitable for the mainstream minimalist Nordic style. Basically, as long as the bathroom lighting is sufficient and the tiles are pasted, it can be used, even if it has log elements, it will not appear cold.
