Types of towel racks

The bathroom must have accessories that make everyday life easier. In addition to elements such as a black bathroom shelf , glass or made of any material that is highly resistant to moisture and water, towel racks are perfect. In practice, these accessories come in different versions. Generally, two categories of products can be distinguished - standing racks and wall racks, which are mounted on the wall of the room. In practice, there are definitely more solutions, including:

  • round bathroom hangers;
  • hangers with arms;
  • classic hooks - in single, double or triple variants;
  • door hangers.

Each of them can be made of different materials, so you can easily match the variant to the arrangement to maintain full consistency.

Where is the best place to place a towel rack?

Therefore, it is best to place towel rails directly next to devices with access to water, such as a sink, near a bathtub or shower. This way, during bathing, while washing hands, the towel will always be within reach.

The second key issue when choosing where to attach the hangers is height. At what height should the hanger be attached? The optimal level often indicated by specialists is a ceiling of 140 cm from the floor. This is a height that should provide comfort for all household members, regardless of height. It is best to approach the subject more individually, especially if there are children or elderly people living in the house, then the towel rack should be at such a height that these people can easily cope with any situation on their own.

What material should a towel rack be made of?

A towel rack in the bathroom is exposed to quite difficult conditions every day. The greatest threat is water, moisture and steam, which are natural in this room. Therefore, the material from which the rack is made should be corrosion-resistant. Bathroom accessories are most often made of materials such as:

  • stainless steel;
  • aluminum;
  • brass;
  • plastics;
  • chrome steel;
  • glass.

Choosing the right option largely depends on the interior design. It should match the other accessories, creating a coherent and elegant space.
