Toilet roll holder. Help!
Comments

I have almost exact same toilet roll holder which I got some Sainsburys and you need a very small allen key. The screw looks like its been rounded off though might need a pair of pliers if thats the case. Inside will be a bracket which you screw to wall with screws and wall plugs0

Allen key - you can usually buy a set in varying sizes from a pound shop - not the best quality, but will do the job. S0ds law says that if you buy an individual one from a DIY shop, it'll end up being the wrong size.

Fab, thanks very much everyone! :beer:
I will attempt to buy a set of Allen keys on my lunch break today and have a go at tackling this tonight. Will let you know how I get on.Mortgage received 21/12/2018

You don't need an allen key just use a small screwdriver that will fit in the allen screw.
Its not ideal but will work.0 -

Sad to say this is how I'm spending my Friday night, but very happy to say that the Allen key worked and I now have a toilet roll holder that is straight and doesn't move, which is something of a revelation.
A massive thanks to everyone for your help!Mortgage received 21/12/2018
