Glass shelves have many advantages, among which we can recall the
resistance to moisture and fungi, visual lightness and weightlessness, easy
maintenance, resistance to sunlight, the possibility to create various original
forms and much more. Like any other material, glass requires special approaches
during the manufacture and installation of the finished product. However, there
is more than one way to fix the glass shelves.
If we talk about the basic methods of glass shelves mounting, they are:
The fastening by pelican shelf support.
This method is suitable for the shelf of any thickness, thanks to the
ability to adjust the bracket. Such fastening is reliable and suitable for
massive shelves with a large area. A large assortment of pelican brackets and
their aesthetic appearance open up wide opportunities for design solutions. The
lack of the ability to highlight the entire length of the shelf is among the
disadvantages of this method of attachment.
The fastening on the aluminum profile.
The process of attaching the shelf to the aluminum profile is more
laborious and requires skills to work with the material. The main advantage of
this mount is the ability to use the built-in lights.
The fastening on decorative metal holders.
The main principle of this fastening is the absence of an attempt to
hide fasteners. On the contrary, the brackets can be quite large, but at the
same time very elegant and serve as interior decoration. This method allows you
to fasten the shelves beautifully and securely.
The fastening by storage systems.
This method is used for mounting several tiers of shelves. Storage
system suggests the possibility of changing the height of each shelf. If
desired, some shelves can be removed.
