ABOUT TOWEL HOOKS

Towel hooks are available for use in both kitchen and bathroom. Kitchen towel hooks include hanging towel hooks which can be fitted over a cabinet door, avoiding the use of screws or nails to fix to the wall. Bathroom towel hooks are normally finished in bright or brushed chrome, or in brass finish. They may be of traditional or contemporary design. An alternative to the towel hook is the towel bar. These are most usually used in bathrooms, and may be in chrome or brass finish. Towel bars also may be of traditional or contemporary design.
