WHAT IS THE PERFECT HEIGHT FOR BATHROOM FIXTURES?

Are your rest room fixtures and fittings mounted at the suitable height? Is the towel out of reach of the shower or the health faucet on the incorrect side? If so, there are a few things you must keep in mind to get rid of these without difficulty and get rid of from this day-to-day irritant with the help of Toyo sanitary wares.

Mirror 

The height of the mirror in toilets relies upon on the kind of mirror being installed, however a mirror is ideally positioned anywhere between 38 and 42 inches from the finished floor. The standard height of the mirror above the vanity will vary depending on the shape and size of the mirror, the average height of the users, and height of your sink and faucet.

We should ensure that the mirror is around eye-level for most of the users!

Here are three easy tricks to determine the optimal mirror height:

 Hang the mirror 5” to 10” inches above the sink

 Hang the mirror a few inches above the highest part of the faucet

 Centre the mirror in between the vanity lighting and the sink.

Lavatory / Vanity Height

Although contemporary trendy vanity top installation is at 36 inches, it can be too high or too low for

positive people. If the bathroom is being remodelled for children, then it is better to purchase them a

stool rather than decreasing the peak as the children will finally grow and you would have to re-install the vanity. The toilet on the different hand need to be established as per the top of the user.

Showerheads The top of the showerhead or rain shower be high enough not to contact your head however low enough to create a mild glide of water. Typical top for showerhead set up is 6 and a half feet which can be altered as per the height of the bathers. You need to be able to stand below the shower except crouching, which is mainly necessary if you have a shower cum bath in your bathroom. 

Shelves 

The height of the bathroom shelves is commonly fixed as per the usage. They are generally set up at an elevation of 3 feet or 4 feet or as per the top of the mirror above the vanity. There is no fixed rule for the shelves as they can be set up somewhere in the bathroom to go well with your convenience.

Soap Dish and Dispenser The Ideal height for a soap dish is between 44 inches and 54 inches. However, the dish should be installed away from the shower spray to stop the collection of water in the dish. A soap dispenser can be installed at a height between 40-48 inches.

Towel Ring 

The standard height of a towel ring is between 50 and 52 inches measured from the finished bathroom floor. However, if your towel ring is to be installed above the vanity then you can mount it at a height of 20-22 inches above counter height.

Towel Rail

The towel rail height depends on the height of the users and the type of bathroom. For instance, if the

bathroom is to be used by the children then the towel rail will be installed lower. The ideal height,

however, is 48 inches above the finished floor. If you are installing multiple rails always keep a distance of minimum inches of more than a folded towel between rails.

Cabinet

The ideal height for bathroom cabinets is at least 54 inches above finished floor because your vanity

counter will be placed at a height of 36 inches leaving an 18-inch gap between the counter and the

cabinet.

When you are planning your bathroom, these simple measurements will ensure that you have a logical bathroom with correct ergonomics so that your bathroom fixtures are no longer an obstacle in your everyday morning routine.
