Shower Doorknob Options
Our glass shower doorknobs are available in several styles, including:
- Finger pulls: Finger pulls are round and wide enough for a person to wrap two fingers around them as they pull a shower door to the open or closed position.
- Single knobs: A single knob protrudes from one side of the shower door. It’s narrow and acts as a guide as someone pushes or slides the door.
- Double-sided knobs: A double-sided knob protrudes from either side of the shower door. The side on the interior of the door may be coated in plastic to protect it from moisture.
How to Choose Shower Doorknobs
There’s a lot to consider when choosing a doorknob or finger pull to complete your glass shower door design.
Door Type
Shower doors can slide, swing or fold inward. The right type of door hardware makes it easier for a user to open or close the door when entering or exiting the shower. For example, a finger pull may be the right choice for a door that swings up, as it allows the person taking the shower to grip the handle when pulling on the door.
A doorknob may be a better choice for a shower door that slides, as a person can gently push on the knob to move the door along its tracks. A double-sided doorknob can make it easy to slide the door open from outside the shower and from the inside.
Knob Finish
Consider the other hardware in use when selecting the knob finish. For example, if the shower enclosure has brushed nickel towel bars and hinges, a doorknob in an antique black finish or polished chrome will look out of place.
There is room for creativity and a unique vision when selecting a doorknob finish for shower door installations. It is important to note that select finishes offer a more reflective and shiny appearance compared to others.
There is no wrong way to go with glass shower doorknobs as long as selections come from a reputable manufacturer like Rockwell Security. You might choose polished chrome or brushed nickel finishes to naturally catch the eye or an antique black finish for a sophisticated and modern aesthetic.
Glass Thickness
The doorknobs or pulls you choose should fit the glass door physically and aesthetically. The thickness of your glass shower doors is significant in determining which knobs or pulls will work. Some doorknobs are designed to work with heavy glass doors, up to ½ inch thick. Others work best with lighter doors with a glass thickness of up to 3/8 inch.
If the knob is too small for the glass, it won’t attach completely. Knobs that are too large will fit loosely on the door, making it difficult to open or close. For full functionality and the safety of end users, it’s important to select options that accommodate the installation and fasten snugly for repeated use.
Doorknob Shape
The shape of a doorknob contributes to its user-friendliness. Select one that feels comfortable in the hand and promotes smooth opening and closing. Rockwell Security produces circular glass shower doorknobs that help tie an entire bathroom together. Offerings that fit in visually with many styles complement the architecture of sink handles, drawers, closets and entryway doors.
Safety Characteristics
Shower doorknobs are exposed to moisture and damp conditions. Choosing a model with substantial weight and rounded edges helps individuals step in and out of their showers carefully. Rockwell Security produces knobs without sharp edges to prevent injuries and damage to nearby surfaces.
Surface Texture
Cleaning a shower should be something easy to do without inconveniences. Smooth surfaces are easier to clean than styles with grips or alternate coatings. Depending on the material and finish, some hardware requires specialty cleaning products, which is less convenient for end-users. With Rockwell Security, you can get sleek shower doorknobs that work well with popular cleaning solutions.
