There’s no specific code that dictates where toilet paper holder placement should be in a bathroom, or which side of the toilet it should be on, for that matter.
Where do you put the toilet paper holder in a small bathroom?
They recommend you install the toilet paper holder 26 inches above the floor and eight to 12 inches away from the toilet, measuring from the very front of the toilet. This gives you both the space to reach out for it and the proximity, so you aren’t trying to reach too far.
How do you install a toilet paper holder without a side wall?
Without reachable side walls, you can still wall-mount your toilet paper holder on the wall behind the toilet. Mount it about 8 inches higher than the bowl, or about 24 to 26 inches above the floor. If most people in your family are right-handed, mount it on the right side of the tank if wall space allows.
Why does toilet paper go underneath?
Looks “tidier”
The first supporting point for the “under” technique is that it offers a cleaner look. With the toilet paper closer to the wall and the paper hanging behind the roll, it does make for a more minimalist visual.
What is the ADA height for toilet paper holder?
According to ADA requirements, toilet tissue dispensers should be installed on the nearest side wall, a minimum of 19 inches above the floor and a maximum of 36 inches from the rear wall.
