Towel racks should go in the following places in the bathroom.

l Next to the sinks

l Above the toilet

l Next to the shower

l Near the tub

l Behind the door

Where to place your towel rack?

In the bathroom, we typically use towels to dry our hands and bodies after bathing and showering. Therefore, it makes sense that we install towel racks in places that give us easy accessibility to the towels.

Next to the basin, we place shower rings or hooks for hand towels. They need to be close by for drying after washing your hands.

The other commonsense place to place your towel rack is next to the shower or near the bathtub. Some may use towel hooks, others may use a heated towel rack at the foot of the bathtub, but as long as your towel is in arm’s reach, the towel rack is in a good location.
