Ruhe Bathroom Accessories Sets
Buying from one range keeps the design and finish the same across the bathroom. Each piece is bought on its own, so you pick only what you need.
Every range has a robe hook, soap dish, tumbler holder, towel ring and towel rod. Most also have a towel rack, and some add a double soap dish, soap dispenser or toilet paper holder.
Brass
Brass is heavy and solid. Ruhe's brass accessories (Aurum, Erica, Vetra shelves and the brass grab bar) are chrome plated, and the Aurum and Erica soap dishes, tumblers and dispensers come with glass.
Aluminium
The Ember range is aluminium, which is light and does not rust. It is the range to pick for Matt Black, Yellow Gold or Rose Gold, and it has combination pieces such as a towel ring with tumbler and soap dispenser.
ABS
ABS is a hard plastic. It is light, does not rust and costs the least, which suits rented homes, guest toilets and children's bathrooms.
Where to Fix Each Accessory
These are common heights from the finished floor. Adjust them to the people using the bathroom.
| Accessory | Common height |
|---|---|
| Towel rod or towel rack | 42–48 inches (about 107–122 cm); lower for children |
| Toilet paper holder | About 26 inches (66 cm), 8–12 inches in front of the WC |
| Grab bar | 33–36 inches (about 84–91 cm) to the top of the bar |
| Soap dish in the shower | 44–54 inches (about 112–137 cm) |
All Ruhe accessories are wall mounted with screws and wall plugs. Ask your fitter to drill through the tile joints where possible, and to check for concealed pipes before drilling.
