Types of Bathroom Shelf

Bathroom shelves in this range come in two main materials: toughened glass with chrome or stainless steel brackets, and solid stainless steel. Glass shelves suit open, light-reflecting schemes and wipe down quickly — toughened glass is safe and resistant to moisture and temperature changes in a bathroom. Stainless steel shelves are rust-resistant and suit more utilitarian schemes. Both types are wall-mounted and sized to sit above or beside the basin, providing storage for hand soap, toiletries and everyday items without taking up counter space.

Fitting and Positioning

Wall-mounted shelves require fixings into solid masonry or a stud; if fixing into tiles, use a tile drill bit and ensure anchors are rated for the shelf load. Position the shelf at a practical height — typically at or just above basin height — so items are reachable without obstructing the tap or mirror. Check the shelf's weight rating before loading it with heavy items. Browse matching Towel Rails & Rings, Soap Dishes & Dispensers and Robe Hooks, or return to Basin Accessories for the full range.
