When remodelling an existing bathroom or designing a new one, towel racks and bars often get overlooked. These accessories are crucial for a functional and well-organized bathroom. These hints will help you choose the correct size and type of towel bars and where to place them.
Bathroom Size
To make the most of larger bathrooms, you will need to have more towel racks and bigger towel bars. A large part of the equation is also how many sinks you have. To hang towels quickly, install at least one 16-18 inch towel bar per sink. These locations are also well-suited for towel rings. If there is a bathtub or shower, a small bathroom should have at least one full-size bar. Multi-bar racks are a better option for larger bathrooms.
Towel Collection
When choosing towels, consider the size of the towels that the racks can hold. If you prefer large towels or bath sheets, then the racks and bars should be wider than standard towels. The width of the rack or bar should be sufficient to allow for the spread of large towels without wrinkles or folds. This will ensure that the material dries quickly and prevents mildew growth. A rack that is only designed to hold hand towels will only need the required width.
Bathroom users
Bathrooms with multiple users will need to have ample racks and bars that can hold towels. Towels that are shared by multiple users will slow down the drying of terrycloth. Bathroom users will only need one towel and two towels for a bath. While it is easy to rotate the towel bars next to a tub or shower, you should also ensure that there are towel racks or shelving elsewhere for long-term storage.
How to choose a style
When it isn't in use, the towel rack's bar is mostly hidden. Its visible design is concentrated in the supports and side pieces of the rack, which allows homeowners to match their decor. For modern spaces, hooks and simple bars work well. Supports with scrolled or fluted designs are a better choice for traditional styles.
