Drywall corner protectors are used in a wide range of settings; this
includes office settings. While many individuals see corner guards as an item
primarily used in homes and schools to protect children from being injured,
corner guards have many practical uses in an office environment as well. Here
are just a few of the many examples of how wall corner protection is perfect
for your office and the benefits that these corner guards can provide your
business with.
Keeps Your Office Space Attractive
Daily foot traffic in your office space combined with the bringing of boxes
of materials in and out of your business can cause wear and tear to be
inflicted on your walls. Even when being careful, the way corners stick out
makes them an inevitable target for being run into, and it is also easy for
items being brought in and out of your office space to get caught on corners.
This can create a large number of unsightly scratches, dinks, and dents to
appear on your wall’s corners. Corner protectors can help to protect your walls
and keep the corners in your office looking fresh, new, and inviting for many
years to come.
Prevents Costly Damage
Without corner protectors in place protecting your walls, it can be easy for
corners to not only become scratched, but also for more severe damage to be
inflicted on your walls. This type of damage can be costly to repair, as it can
be difficult to fix these corners. Furthermore, if you are renting your office
space, inflicting this type of damage could cost you to lose your security
deposit. Thus, having corner guards installed on your walls now could save
you time and money later.
Protects Your Employees
Having unprotected wall corners is not only hazardous to your walls, but it
can also pose a threat to you and your employees. The way in which wall corners
stick out allows people who are not paying attention to injure themselves on
them. When one is preoccupied, it can be easy to harm oneself on a sharp
corner. Thusly, installing corner guards can help to ensure that your office is
a safer working environment.
Installing corner guards in your office can be the perfect way to protect
your walls corners from being damaged, and it can prevent these corners from
inflicting injuries on your employees. Taking the time to install corner guards
on your walls now can save you time, money, and a great deal of stress later. Contact us to
find out more about the reasons why you should consider installing corner
guards in your office.

The Benefits of Commercial Corner Guards for your Business
Part of running a successful business involves ensuring your building is in
tip-top shape at all times. One of the best ways of doing this is to install
corner guards on your walls to protect them from damage. There are a number of
other benefits of commercial corner
guards as well, and here are just a few of the most important ones we
thought were worth mentioning.
#1. Helps secure your damage deposit
If you’re leasing your property, this is a major benefit, as dings and dents in a wall could cause you to lose your damage deposit whenever you move. Install corner guards now, and this won’t be an issue when that time does come.
#2. Keeps customers and employees safe
Don’t worry about people bumping into the corners of your wall and becoming injured. Corner guards will keep everyone safe, so you won’t have to constantly be watching to see this doesn’t happen.

#4. It’s easy to install them
You can get the look and protection you want without spending a great deal of time, since our guards install quickly and easily. Chances are, your own maintenance workers can install them with the tools they already have on site.

Protect the Drywall in Your New Mobile Home with Drywall Protectors
This week, we're proud to re-print a blog posted by one of our very happy customers (who has asked to remain anonymous). A very interesting story, especially considering that it has been reported that 8% of the population of North America lives in a permanent or semi-permanent mobile home.
"When many people think of mobile homes, they think of single-wide trailers with wood paneling on the walls and a ceiling with vertical strips running from side to side. This couldn't be further from the truth in today's day and age.
Upon visiting a mobile home lot, you'll find that nearly all of the walls inside modular homes, double-wides and even single-wide trailers are made of drywall. Now, while this looks clean and spotless on the lot, just wait until you start moving in.
If you can manage to maneuver around the corners of your new mobile home, then kudos to you, but for the majority of the population, accidents will happen. So, how are you going to protect these newly painted, gorgeous looking walls you just purchased? You need drywall protectors.
How do I know this?
I recently just purchased my very own mobile home complete with drywall throughout the whole house including the entire ceiling. Let's just say - the drywall was beautiful until we started moving in. Then, came a nick here and a bump there and most all of it was happening on the corners!
I looked at my husband and said, "Whoa, wait a minute! We are bumping the drywall off. We need to find something to keep this from happening. We paid way to much money to keep doing this each time we bring in a big piece of furniture."
He agreed.
It took a bit of research, but I found a company that specialized in protecting drywalls that carried what we needed. They have great customer service and are ready to answer any questions you may have.
I wasn't sure what protectors we needed, but was quickly reassured that for a home we would need the 22-guage drywall corner protectors. You can see them for yourself by watching this video I found on Youtube. They also have a contact us page for those wishing to speak to them directly.
Now that we have almost finished moving in, I can't image what I would have done if all of our drywall was beat and banged from not being protected. I highly recommend that anyone who has purchased a new mobile home, a modular home, or even a single-wide trailer to protect their walls.
Oh, I don't want to forget - if you have kids like we do, you'll most certainly be happy you chose to protect your walls. Our little boy constantly runs through the house hanging onto the corners of the walls to turn into the next room at high speed.
Thank goodness for these corner protectors!"

How Drywall Corner Protectors Can Preserve Your Restaurant's Appearance
Whether you've recently opened a new restaurant or you're looking for ways
to improve your already successful establishment, installing drywall
corner protectors may be the answer you're looking for. Not only is it
a cost-effective upgrade, but it also carries a multitude of long-term
benefits. To help you understand how corner guards can increase the prosperity
of your restaurant, we've listed three advantages behind protecting the walls of
your establishment.
If you're looking to buy corner guards for your restaurant, or would like more information on our product, please contact us today and we'll be happy to help you.
1. When a new customer or a returning customer
walks through your restaurant's front door, they expect to see a clean and
pristine environment. If the corners in your building are scratched and dented
from the daily hustle and bustle, restaurants often see, customers may believe
the upkeep of your establishment is lacking, which will cause them to second
guess the state of your kitchen. Luckily, installing corner guards can
eliminate this scenario completely which saves your restaurant from making a
bad first impression.
2. While it's crucial for you to protect the walls
in your dining area, it's also important you don't overlook your restaurant's
kitchen. Unfortunately, as the staff quickly navigates their way through the
space, accidents are bound to happen, which is why corner protection is needed.
Collisions caused by delivery men manoeuvring large shipments of food is
another possible threat to your kitchen's walls. Installing high-impact corner guards can
stop your walls from needing constant repairs which saves you money in the long
run.
3. Running a restaurant is a costly endeavour and
saving money in unexpected ways is key to succeeding. Using corner guards to
keep your walls safe from unattractive blemishes means you have one less repair
bill to pay each month. Installation is also a simple and fast process, that
you can choose to do yourself. Your only requirements are the corner guards you
purchased and a strong construction adhesive. Once both are in front of you,
apply the adhesive in a zigzag pattern on the back of each corner guard. Next,
you merely place the guard against the corner and hold it for around 20
seconds. The final step is walking away from your newly installed guard and
allowing it to set for 24 hours. After the 24 hours have passed, your walls
will have sufficient protection for many years to come.

Incorporating Stainless Steel Corner Guards Into Interior Design
It's a small thing, but it has a big purpose. With stainless
steel corner guards, you can rest easy knowing that chipped and scuffed
drywall isn't going to detract from your décor. But with some modern and
industrial styles, a stainless steel corner guard isn't just functional, but
fashionable as well.
According to Furnish Burnish, the industrial style relies on the heavy use of metals. Traditionally, the style was used to decorate spaces that had been transformed from their original industrial purpose into living spaces. The color palette of such areas is generally rust, black, metallic, and yellow-toned.
The website suggests balancing the metal in the room with other décor items. If you have metallic-colored walls, then shabby wooden furniture might produce the desired effect. Or metallic-finished furniture with a rich colored wall paint. The use of stainless steel color guards with an attractive brushed finish can be the perfect accent to rich wall colors and metal furniture, tying the look of the walls in with the rest of the décor.
If industrial isn't the look you're going for with your decorating, don't despair. You can paint our Satin Coat corner guards in whatever color you'd like them to be, so that they continue to give you protection for your drywall corners while serving as an accent piece in your decorating scheme or even blending in with the color of your walls.
Whatever your style and whatever space you're decorating, corner protectors from Boss Corner Guards can help you achieve and maintain a professional, finished look. For more information, contact us.

Four Reasons to Consider Drywall Protectors
If you're even aware that drywall protectors exist, then you're
already light years ahead of some. The next step, of course, is to consider
whether or not they're a good investment for you. By reading the list below,
you'll soon see that far from being some elite product for the few, drywall
protectors really are for everyone.
Four Reasons to Consider Drywall Protectors:
Reason One: You have a building... with corners in it. This might be a no-brainer, but we thought we might as well mention it. After all, if you don't have a building, or if you do have a building but it's totally round, then you would have no need for drywall protectors. As for the rest of you, read on.
Reason Two: People pass in and out of your building on a regular basis. Unless you're running a mausoleum, chances are high that your building has significant foot traffic, and while this may boost your bottom line, there's no denying that people cause significant wear and tear. Hence the need for drywall protectors.
Reason Three: You have employees. The well-worn phrase "the customer is always right" does not always extend to employees, especially to employees whose mistakes accidentally mangle your drywall. Better to protect you both and have drywall protectors installed just in case.
Reason Four: You're in this for the long haul. If you're only planning to be in business for a few years, then there's no need to think ahead about keeping your drywall in good shape. If, however, you're in it for the long haul, investing in wall protection is probably in your best interests.
Did any of these reasons strike a chord with you? If so, you're in luck. Drywall protectors are easy to obtain and install. Feel free to contact us for more details.
