external towel to attach to ladder radiator - help needed

usignuolo

I have just had my bathroom redone. The only place for a new radiator was tall and narrow so we have installed one of those dual function upright ladder towel rails/radiators (400x 1200) and I am hoping it will be warm enough. However this new rad it is tall and thin there is not a lot of room to hang a large bath towel inside the spokes.

I have seen somewhere recently an add-on towel rack for these ladder rads/towel rails, which was a straight piece of metal but with a springy right angled bend at each side so you could insert it between the ladder rungs and the spring angles would hold it in place while outside you had a large rail to hang your towel from. I can't remember where I saw it though.

They don't have anything like it at my local DIY store and the only thing they do have, a tail rail to bolt on the wall between the rungs, is out of stock. I am struggling to search on the web because if I search on "towel rail" I get the usual free standing or bolt-on wall version, and if I search on "towel rail for ladder radiator" I just get lists of ladder radiators which double as towel rails.

Can anyone help?

I know exactly what you mean. I saw accessories somewhere of hooks and rails that you can mount on ladder towel rails when looking around bathroom showrooms. However like you i can't remember exactly where it was i saw them!!
I've got a feeling i saw them either in Plumbase ...or it might have been Bathstore (just looked on both their websites and couldnt find though)..i may be wrong though but i've definitely seen them somewhere!!

Let us know where you find them as we will be putting a ladder towel rail into our bathroom. I should really go round with a notebook writing these things down than relying on memory!
