Product Information

Full details

This Croydex Towel Bar in Silver is designed for homeowners looking to add a touch of 1920s Art Deco style and practical towel storage to their bathrooms without the hassle of drilling. Its key benefit is the innovative Flexi-Fix™ system, offering both screw and glue-fix options for easy installation. A potential caveat is that the adhesive might not be suitable for all wall surfaces or heavy-duty use, making the screw-fix option more reliable for longevity.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of the Flexi-Fix™ system?

The Flexi-Fix™ system offers dual installation options: you can either glue it to the wall using a high-strength adhesive or screw it in, providing flexibility based on your wall type and preference for drilling.

Can I use the adhesive fixing on any bathroom wall?

The adhesive fixing works best on smooth, non-porous surfaces like tiles or glass. For textured, uneven, or porous walls, it is recommended to use the screw-fixing option for a secure installation.

What material is the towel bar made from?

The towel bar is constructed from durable zinc alloy with a protective chrome-plated finish.

How do I clean and maintain the chrome finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Wipe dry after cleaning to prevent water spots and maintain the shine.

Does the towel bar come with everything needed for installation?

Yes, all necessary fixings for both the glue-fix and screw-fix methods are included with the product.

What is the design inspiration for this towel bar?

The towel bar is inspired by the elegant style of the 1920s Art Deco period.

Can I hang heavy items on this towel bar?

This towel bar is designed primarily for hanging towels. It is not intended for excessively heavy items.

Troubleshooting

Towel bar feels loose after installation

If glue-fix was used, the adhesive may not have fully cured or the surface was not prepared correctly. Ensure the adhesive has cured for the recommended time. If screw-fix was used, check that screws are tightened securely into the wall or appropriate wall plugs.

Adhesive not sticking to the wall

The wall surface may be unsuitable (e.g., textured, porous, or greasy). Clean the area thoroughly and ensure it is completely dry. For difficult surfaces, use the screw-fix method instead.

Chrome finish appears dull or stained

This can be caused by hard water deposits or residue from cleaning products. Clean with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Product arrived with missing parts

Check the packaging carefully. If parts are genuinely missing, contact the retailer or manufacturer's customer service with your proof of purchase.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Croydex Towel Bar features the patented Flexi-Fix™ system. You have two primary installation options:

  1. Glue Fixing: Clean the desired wall surface thoroughly, ensuring it is dry and free from dust or grease. Apply the provided high-strength adhesive to the mounting plate. Press firmly onto the wall and allow the adhesive to cure as per the adhesive manufacturer's instructions (typically 24 hours) before use.
  2. Screw Fixing: Use the provided screws to mount the bracket directly to the wall. This can be done into existing holes or by drilling new ones appropriate for your wall type (e.g., into wall plugs for masonry).

All necessary fixings for both methods are included.

Compatibility:

  • Wall Surfaces: The glue-fix option is best suited for smooth, non-porous surfaces like tiles, glass, or finished metal. For uneven or porous surfaces, screw fixing is recommended.
  • Bathroom Accessories: Designed to coordinate with other Croydex wall-mounted accessories in a similar style.

Care:

  • Clean the towel bar regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the chrome finish.
  • Wipe dry after cleaning to prevent water spots.
  • Periodically check the security of the fixing, especially if using the adhesive method.
