What Can You Showcase?

If you have something of value, chances are you want to take care of it. At the same time, you probably also want to show it off to others.

If you are a trophy winner, you might display a set of your awards. If you own a retail store, you may be displaying a line of expensive products.

The things you can showcase in your glass display cabinets are endless. Whether it's trophies, jewellry, paintings, statues, and more, you can put in whatever you want.

Why Choose Glass Display Cabinets

A glass display cabinet is a case with tempered glass, and normally, multiple shelving units.

While these cabinets can certainly display your possessions proudly, there's more to them than just that.

Security

Your awards and trophies could be made of valuable materials. This makes it more likely for someone to want to steal them.

Or, you could be displaying fine jewellry or using them for product presentation.

Whatever it may be, a glass display cabinet will protect your valuables from wandering hands. You can know your valuables are safe and secure, while still being able to show them to the world.

You can even choose a case that has a lock with it, so only you can open it. You can never be too secure with your valuable items.

Shine

Have you ever worried about if the dim lighting in your room will prevent people from seeing the shine in your valuables?

There's no need to worry about your trophy hiding in the shadows. You can opt for a lighted glass display case to brighten up the room.

Having light reflecting off of your items will make them shine all the more. In a dimmer setting, they can be the centrepiece of the room and grab everyone's attention.

Why let them sit in a dark back area when they can be shining front and centre?

No Wear and Tear

Are you ever worried about the wear and tear that showcasing your valuables might result in?

This could be because people would pick them up and down, toss them around, or knock into them. Dust could easily collect and the sun can discolour the trophies and valuables.

With a glass display case, you won't need to worry about that. A sturdy cabinet will hold your valuables without any fear of them being handled and getting worn out.

You can even opt for dustproof display cases that will lower your maintenance.

You want to take care of your items. So, protect them by showcasing them in one of our glass display cabinets.

Extra Decor

Besides holding your valuables and protecting them, glass display cabinets also make for an extra accent to a room. They can add a modern sleekness to your presentation that the room may have not had before.

It will give your presentation a higher-end look and brighten up the place with its shine. Rather than just a normal shelving unit, it will also give the illusion that you have more space since it is transparent.

If you are looking to store your valuables and brighten up a room, then our glass cabinets could be the solution.

How Do You Maintain Them?

It is important to still maintain your cabinets and keep them clean. What does this entail?

In order to make sure they shine, you shouldn't just clean them with any random solution or product. You should find an ammonia-based solution and wipe down your cabinets with a soft microfiber towel.

Fingerprints may sometimes build up on glass display cabinets, so you will want to wipe them down regularly to get rid of any smudging. Wiping down your case won't take more than a minute of your time.

Make sure your cabinets don't turn into a second table or countertop for your home. That will defeat the purpose of trying to showcase your valuables, and it could harm the look of the glass. If you do accidentally put a wet cup or mug on it, clean it with ammonia-based spray as soon as possible. This will prevent it from harming the glass or creating build-up.

Don't worry if you are still concerned about the maintenance. Take a look at our easy tips to help you keep your cabinets shining.

How Do I Know They Are Good Quality?

Maybe you aren't sure if your cabinets are good quality and durable.

While it is easy to make the wrong choice and invest in poor-quality glass, you can work with a glass cabinet maker. Professional cabinet makers are qualified individuals that will help you choose what kind of cabinet you need, how it will be made, and help you in the installation and set up.

By hiring a professional to help you, you won't go wrong. They can ensure that your glass is high-quality, durable, and made to last.
