Glass displays have many benefits and advantages over other kinds of promotional displays. They can be made to stand alone, with a nice wood or metal base, or can be set on top of another display cabinet, with a revolving base that can be turned so customers can easily see what is being shown inside. Some of these revolving cases even have motorized stands that rotate the case slowly to make sure that no item is hidden.
One of the biggest advantages of owning glass displays is that it keeps you high end items in full view, without letting customers have easy access to their contents, there by limiting loss from theft. Some glass displays have an open side, others have sliding or opening doors that can be secured. This makes it easy for your employees to access the contents, while still keeping them secure.
Another advantage of using glass displays is that these displays also keep your valuable jewelry, clothes and other items from getting damaged or dusty. This way you are not constantly having to clean these items, and you don’t have to worry about them being handled very often, lessening the risks of damage from customers. Most of these glass displays are mounted on stands, from table stands to cabinet stands. Cabinet stands are probably the best for many reasons. They can be made from sturdy hard woods, or metal, and have convenient storage areas in the back to hold extra products, as well as the gift boxes and other packaging materials.
For all the advantages of glass displays, there are some drawbacks. One is that glass is very heavy, as well as somewhat fragile. Some one leaning to much on a glass display counter can break it, and smash and grab thieves often target these cases because they can be broken so fast. Because glass is heavy, they need a strong sturdy stand to sit on. They also need to be kept clean, because a dirty case means that your customers won’t be able to see the items displayed very well.
These days you can find tempered glass displays, as well as clear Plexiglass. Tempered glass is much stronger, and doesn’t shatter like regular glass displays do. Plexiglass is much more durable, as well as a lighter material. There are also some drawbacks. Plexiglass needs much more maintenance, and tempered glass can be much more expensive.
If you are in the market for buying glass displays, it is important to look around carefully for the right display. If you are buying a free standing display, make sure that the stand or cabinet has some sort of storage area behind it. For revolving displays, make sure they turn freely, and have sealed bearings. If you want displays that open up, these need to have locks that are easy for you to open, but still be secure.
You can buy glass displays from a number of online retailers. When buying, make sure that these retailers offer the best prices and selection, as well as offer free shipping, since these displays can be pretty heavy to ship.
