Once you have selected a towel holder, you need to place it in a suitable spot in the bathroom. Consider the following points:
How long should a towel holder be?
The optimal length of a towel holder depends on various factors, including the size of the towels and the available space. In a standard bathroom, we recommend at least 30cm, where only smaller towels can be fully spread out.
For larger towels, we recommend 45cm - 80cm.
Where do you install towel holders?
The ideal place for your towel holder can be either the wall or the side of the sink cabinet, usually at a height of about 80 cm. For large bath towels, a height between 90 and 120 cm is the better choice.
Basically: For adults, a height of 1.20 meters is ideal, while for children's sinks, a height of 0.90 meters fits well.
At what height should towel hooks be?
Towel hooks, on the other hand, can be hung higher than a towel holder. A general recommendation is 1.5 m above the floor. This depends on your height and the needs of your household.
Where in the bathroom should you not drill into the wall?
Caution! Installation zones, areas around sockets and light switches are off-limits. Hidden electrical and water lines may be present here. For cables or water pipes coming out of the wall, drilling should not be done within a radius of 20 centimeters, as lines can be laid both vertically and horizontally. A line detector can locate metals and lines up to a depth of six centimeters, providing safety.
