How high should toilet paper holders be?

As per standard guidelines globally, the height needs to be 26 inches above the ground level. This measurement means the centre of the holder needs to be 26 inches above the ground level. 

How to install toilet paper holders?

Apart from aesthetic quotient, a standard holder is 26 inches above the ground level. Select a sweet spot at a comfortable distance of 8 to 10 inches from the toilet and mark the area you wish to install it in.

Now use brackets or clamps and install the toilet paper rods. You might need to drill a bit but make sure you use screws to ease the process of removal at a later stage.

How to remove the toilet paper holder?

Since we use screws and brackets, you would need a screwdriver to unscrew and remove the brackets of the toilet walls. 

Where to put toilet paper holders?
