Although the bathroom area is not large, there are many items that need to be placed and used. In particular, shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, soap and other products need to be used in the shower area, but there is no suitable place to put them. Most families will choose to buy hardware pendants for storage, but it is easy to make the space look messy and take up space, so more and more owners like niche design. So what are the advantages of niches? And what type of house is suitable for niche? 1. High appearance
Niches use the wall itself for storage, so they can ensure the overall sense of the wall. Different design techniques can also present different decorative effects, effectively improving the design and aesthetic sense of the toilet.
2. Easy to clean
Bathroom niches are usually made of waterproof materials, so cleaning is very simple and easy, and can be done by flushing with water.
3. Capable of bearing weight
There are always many bottles and jars in the bathroom, as well as a lot of large capacity home packaged bath products. The weight is not light when they are stacked together, and the niches can be easily installed without fear of pressing hard.
4. It will not damage the waterproof
It is not necessary to drill holes on the wall to make niches, which will not damage the waterproof layer of the wall, and can ensure the integrity of the waterproof layer of the toilet, without fear of moisture infiltration into the wall. 1. If the niche is specially built, it will waste a lot of space. If the bathroom itself is not large, it is unnecessary to use the niche.
2. If the niche is designed in the bath area, it will produce water stains after a long time, and it is difficult to take care of.
3. The construction of niches also involves safety issues. Before construction, it must be clear whether the wall to be smashed is a load-bearing wall, or there may be a risk of collapse. If your bathroom decoration has the following conditions, you can consider making a niche:
Wet and dry separation toilet: The wet and dry separation of the toilet requires new wall construction or some corners that are difficult to use and construct. A niche can be left when building the wall, which can improve the space utilization rate and increase the sense of toilet design. Location of sewer and flue: The sewer and flue in the toilet generally need to be wrapped. We can also use the location of the covered pipe to make a niche to effectively use the space at the corners. It is enough to leave the space required by the niche during the covered pipe. The house type has its own concave and convex: the bearing wall of the original toilet has its own concave and convex and cannot be removed and modified. When building the wall, you can directly reserve the position of the concave niche.
The wall is too thick (non bearing wall): if the thickness of the non bearing wall in the toilet is appropriate, we can directly drill a hole in the wall to dig a niche.
Wall mounted toilet is used in the toilet: wall mounted toilet needs to be reinforced during installation. In this case, the newly built wall behind the toilet can be used as a niche to increase the storage space in the toilet.
To sum up, the niches in the toilet should be designed and arranged according to the space structure of the toilet as far as possible, instead of deliberately smashing the wall in order to make niches; After introducing the house types suitable for custom niches and their advantages and disadvantages, I hope it can help the friends who are struggling about whether to design niches in the toilet.
