2 min reading time

Follow these 5 easy steps to install a towel ring that complements your bathroom and adds functionality.

 

Required Tools for Installing a Towel Ring

Hammer Mounting Hardware (Bracket, Anchors, & Screws)
Drill & Bits Level
Pencil Towel Ring

 

STEP 1: Determine Towel Ring Placement

Towel rings are typically installed next to or near a sink, ideally positioned 50 to 52 inches from the ground, or about 20 inches above the counter. Ensure that the mounting bracket is level for a straight installation. If no stud is available, use wall anchors to secure the ring.

TIP: For bathrooms designed for children, consider lowering the towel ring to about 36 inches from the ground for easy access.

STEP 2: Mark Your Drill Holes

Use the mounting bracket as a template to mark where you will drill. If you're not installing into a stud, drywall anchors are essential. These plastic anchors, included with most bath accessory sets, will help hold the towel ring securely in place.

TIP: Our towel ring selections come complete with mounting hardware, ensuring a quick and easy installation.

STEP 3: Drill Anchor Holes and Install Drywall Anchors (Skip if Installing into a Stud)

Drill holes for the anchors, using the correct size drill bit. If you're not drilling into a stud, insert the drywall anchors into the holes, tapping them in gently with a small hammer until they are flush with the wall. The anchors will ensure a secure fit for the screws.
