Ryan’s all-glass: The Best Way to Clean Your Windows

Posted on by jumpsix

Cleaning windows is a vital component of regular maintenance for both homes and workplaces. When you fail to clean windows regularly, they will get dirty, become streaky, and even develop hard-to-remove stains. However, cleaning your windows with the wrong glass cleaner or the wrong material can cause more problems than it fixes. In today’s blog post, Ryan’s all-glass talks about some easy tips for cleaning your windows.

Clean Your Windows at Least Once a Month

The first step towards clean and shiny windows is regular cleaning. Ryan’s all-glass recommends cleaning your windows at least once a month, if not more, even if your windows don’t appear dirty. Over time, your windows accumulate dust and other small particles. Those particles are much harder to remove if you don’t clean your windows regularly.

Clear All Debris

Remove all significant debris from the glass surface when cleaning your windows. Again, regular washing plays a pivotal role in this step. Clearing all debris from the surface helps to focus your cleaning on the glass itself. When you attempt to wash glass with debris on it, you merely rearrange the dirt or dust that made the glass dirty rather than cleaning the window. Dust and particles are much easier to dust off and remove after you clear away debris.  

Use the Right Glass Cleaner

Arguably the most crucial step when cleaning windows is finding the right glass cleaner. At Ryan’s all-glass, we highly recommend the glass cleaner we provide. That way, your windows get the best possible clean. The right glass cleaner cuts through stains, removes grease and grime, and leaves windows with a brand new shine.

Use the Right Cloth or Rag

Creating streaks represents one of the most common problems people run into when cleaning windows. Using the wrong cloth or rag on a window is typically the source of these streaks. That’s why it’s important to find the right material to clean your glass. Ryan’s all-glass recommends a microfiber rag to avoid streaks. If you don’t have a microfiber rag, you will probably be better off using a simple paper towel compared to a dish rag or towel.

What to Look for in a New Shower Enclosure

Posted on by jumpsix

If you want to add a new shower enclosure to your bathroom, there are a variety of options and factors to consider. You need to know what type of shower door you want, what style design you are looking for, and whether or not you want custom options. The factors to consider vary from aesthetic to practical considerations, and it’s vital to understand the details. In today’s blog post, Ryan’s all-glass evaluates what you should look for in a new shower enclosure.

Frameless Options

One popular bathroom design trend is the frameless shower enclosure. Frameless options, specifically with the Dublin frameless series from Ryan’s all-glass, offer flexibility with shape, size, and pattern, making it an extremely customizable shower design. If your bathroom doesn’t have typical dimensions or you’re simply looking for a unique shower door, our Dublin series is the perfect solution. Besides the customization options, frameless shower doors have a sleek and minimalistic look that gives your bathroom a more modern feel.

Opening Styles

Another factor to consider when choosing a shower enclosure is how the door will open. There are several ways a shower door can open, from swinging doors to sliding doors. Sliding shower doors are the most common. But when it comes to customized showers, swinging doors are becoming more popular. Sliding doors are typically the standard unless you are upgrading your bathroom. Ryan’s all-glass works with both sliding and swinging doors, giving you more flexibility when installing a new shower. When choosing the way your shower door opens, the dimensions and layout of your bathroom play a pivotal role. A sliding door might make more sense if a swinging door would hit a wall, sink, or toilet.

Tub or No Tub?

A wild card consideration for a new shower enclosure is whether or not to include a tub. Most showers that include a bathtub don’t typically have an enclosure. They merely utilize a curtain. If your enclosure will have a tub, you can eliminate most frameless options from consideration. However, you can still use a semi-frameless enclosure and even a sliding door if you don’t want a curtain alone.
