Guides for Specifying Bathroom Hardware
Written for the people who put these fittings on a drawing: what the material choice actually changes, what the datasheet figures mean, and the questions worth asking a supplier before the schedule is issued.
How Electric Heated Towel Rails Work and What to Specify
Temperature range, timer behaviour, power draw per bar, IP rating and cable spec — the five things that actually decide whether a heated towel rail suits your project.
Stainless Steel Zinc Alloy and Brass in Bathroom Hardware
Why the same towel rail costs three different prices, and which material belongs in which part of a bathroom fitting.
Choosing Between Linear Concealed and Point Floor Drains
The drain decides the floor falls, the tile size and whether a wet room can be level-access. Make it before the tiling is set out.
Specifying Grab Bars for Accessible Bathrooms
Lengths, angles, materials and the one question you must ask your supplier before you put a bar on a compliance drawing.
Choosing a Bathroom Hardware Finish That Will Still Match in Year Five
Chrome, matt black, gun grey, brushed gold and rose gold — how each behaves under cleaning, and why finish names are not standardised.
Cleaning Stainless Steel Bathroom Fittings Without Damaging Them
Most stainless steel that rusts in a washroom was not faulty. It was cleaned with the wrong product.
