Choosing a Toilet Roll Holder

A toilet roll holder is one of the most used accessories in any bathroom, so it needs to be sturdy, easy to reach and simple to reload. It is also a small detail that makes a big difference to how finished a bathroom looks.

Open or Covered?

An open holder makes changing the roll quick and easy. A holder with a cover or flap keeps the paper tidy and helps protect it from splashes, which is useful in small bathrooms and en suites.

Where to Fit It

Mount the holder within easy reach of the toilet, usually on the wall to the side and slightly in front of the pan. Avoid placing it behind the toilet or too far forward. Make sure the fixings suit your wall type.

Styles

Modern holders have clean, simple lines, while traditional and art deco holders add decorative detail. Choose a style that matches your taps, towel rail and other accessories.

Finishes

Chrome is the easiest finish to match and to keep clean. Brushed and matt finishes suit contemporary bathrooms. Keeping every accessory in the same finish ties the room together.
