Over time, bathroom interiors have gained considerable importance. A modern bathroom should not only be functional, but also aesthetic. Hence, nowadays a lot of importance is given to bathroom taps.
A bathroom can never be complete without towel racks. They are one of the most important bathroom accessories. Towel bars are bars for storing towels. They are coat racks, usually hung on the wall, and are used to store both dry and wet towels. The dry towels can be folded and stored on the bars for easy access. Wet towels can be spread out on the bars to dry them. This prevents wet towels from getting soggy and the subsequent growth of mold on them. Towel bars are usually made of metal and have a chrome, nickel, brass or bronze plating to prevent rust. Towel bars come in two sizes. One is 18 inches (45.72 cm) long and the other is 24 inches (60.96 cm) long. The eighteen-inch is used for hanging hand towels and is placed near the bathroom sink or in the kitchen. The longest bar, which is the twenty-four inch, is used to hang body towels and is placed in bathrooms. Towel bars also come in single bar and double bar designs.
Towel bars are very simple in structure. They usually consist of a rod, suspended a few centimeters from the wall, which is attached to both sides by two posts. The posts are the supports of the rod and are screwed to the wall.
When fixing the bars on the wall, it is extremely important to note that the bar must be fixed correctly. Firmly fixing the bar to the wall is important, not only because wet towels are heavy, but also because people tend to use towel bars as handholds. Therefore, it is not only about the weight of the wet towels, but also the weight of the human body. The posts must be fixed correctly. In an ideal scenario, the posts should be driven into the wooden planks that are usually hidden behind the dry wall. In case that type of installation is not available, the towel bars must be fixed with the help of a wall anchor. Most often, the towel bars are first attached to a sturdy board and then the board is attached to the wall for additional support.
Sometimes they are also fixed with the help of a preset bracket. Two brackets are fixed to the wall with the help of two screws each. Then the two posts of the towel bar are attached to these brackets with simple screws. This not only makes the towel bar firmly attached to the wall, but also the bar can be removed and changed at any time quite easily.
In addition to the towel bar, there are a few options available for use. The floor-standing towel rack can be used, which is usually a floor-standing coat rack and thus saves one from all the trouble of fixing the coat rack to the wall. Another option is the towel ring, which is a ring that is fixed to the wall and the towel is hung from the ring. A third option is a towel warmer that looks like a ladder. The hanging towels are dried by the heat generated by the heater.
