Toilet roll holders have evolved from simple hooks and basic wall fixtures to sophisticated bathroom accessories designed to complement and enhance overall décor.

Though a subtle detail, this accessory plays a crucial role in both the functionality and visual harmony of any space.
Our collection brings together an expertly curated range of premium-quality designs, thoughtfully crafted to blend everyday practicality with timeless style. Whether you are updating a family bathroom, designing a guest cloakroom, or completing a luxurious ensuite, the right choice ensures your space remains both beautiful and perfectly functional.
Types of Toilet Roll Holders
Open-Arm Toilet Roll Holder
Designed for simplicity and ease of use, this wall-mounted style features one open side, allowing toilet rolls to slide on and off effortlessly. The bar is typically horizontal or slightly angled upward to hold the roll securely in place, and some designs include a curved end or stopper to prevent slipping. With its clean, minimalist look, the open-arm holder complements contemporary bathrooms and is especially convenient in busy households or guest spaces where quick roll replacement is appreciated.
Freestanding Toilet Roll Holder
Offering maximum flexibility without the need for installation, this floor-standing design features a stable vertical base that supports a horizontal arm for active use. Many models also include additional vertical space to store spare rolls, making them especially practical in busy or guest bathrooms. The structure is typically supported by a weighted or wide base to ensure balance and prevent tipping. Suitable for both modern and traditional interiors, this type is ideal for spaces where wall mounting isn't possible or where movable storage is preferred.
Covered Toilet Roll Holder
Designed with both function and style in mind, this type of holder discreetly conceals the toilet roll for a tidier, more refined appearance. The roll is typically secured on a horizontal bar within a protective structure that allows for smooth and controlled dispensing. Often wall-mounted, covered holders are popular in bathrooms where a sleek, uncluttered look is desired. Their enclosed design also helps maintain a sense of cleanliness and order, making them especially suited for elegant, minimalist, or high-traffic spaces.
Smart Designs for Everyday Comfort
Toilet Roll Holders with Lid

Stylish Toilet Roll Holders: Blending Shape with Style

Shapes matter too:
- Round holders offer a soft, timeless look.
- Square designs add a bold, structured feel, perfect for modern settings.
- Curved styles blend elegance with subtle movement, fitting both traditional and transitional spaces.
A well-chosen holder adds both function and flair to your bathroom décor.

Why a Toilet Roll Holder Matters
- Improves Accessibility: A well-placed holder ensures toilet paper is easy to reach, supporting comfort for users of all ages.
- Enhances Space Efficiency: Ideal for compact or minimal layouts, helping to keep surfaces clear and organised.
- Promotes Consistent Use: Encourages tidy habits in shared or high-traffic bathrooms by defining a dedicated space for toilet paper.
- Reduces Waste: Prevents rolls from getting wet, damaged, or misplaced, helping to minimise unnecessary waste.
- Supports Modern Lifestyles: Many holders now include features like shelves or covers to meet everyday needs beyond storage.

Smart Hygiene, Less Paper
A toilet paper saving douche kit is a simple yet highly effective addition to any bathroom. It uses a gentle stream of water for cleaning, offering a more hygienic and eco-friendly alternative to traditional wiping.
This combination:
- Reduces overall paper consumption
- Improves cleanliness
- Cuts down on plumbing issues caused by paper overuse
Even if paper is still required, usage drops dramatically — meaning your roll lasts longer, and your bathroom is more environmentally friendly.
Tip: Pair your douche spray setup with a small open-arm or shelf-equipped holder placed within easy reach, ensuring both comfort and efficiency.

FAQs
1. How high should a toilet roll holder be mounted?
A toilet roll holder is typically mounted at a height of around 650mm to 750mm from the floor. This allows for easy access while seated. It’s also recommended to place it approximately 200mm to 300mm in front of the toilet bowl for maximum comfort and convenience. However, you may adjust this slightly based on your bathroom layout and personal preference.
2. What size toilet roll do most holders accommodate?
Most standard toilet roll holders are designed to fit regular-sized rolls with a width of around 100mm to 120mm and a diameter of up to 120mm. If you use jumbo or extra-large rolls, it’s a good idea to check the holder’s dimensions before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.
3. Are holders with shelves and lids more difficult to install?
Not necessarily. Most toilet roll holders with shelves and lids come with standard fixings and clear instructions, making them just as straightforward to install as regular models. However, because they may be slightly heavier or require a more secure fit, it's important to ensure they are properly anchored, especially when mounted on plasterboard or tiled surfaces.
4. Are phone shelf holders safe to use near water or toilets?
Phone shelf holders are designed with everyday practicality in mind and are generally safe to use when positioned sensibly. However, as with any item near water, it’s wise to avoid direct exposure to splashes or steam. Mounting the shelf at a safe height and away from direct water flow helps protect your device and ensures longer-lasting use of the holder itself.
