Over bath units

Over-the-toilet storage units use vertical space that is generally empty in a bathroom. These units are a good alternative if your space lacks a medicine cabinet or linen closet. They allow you to store toiletries and towels in the bathroom where you need them, instead of storing them in a closet in the hallway.

First, take accurate measurements around your toilet. If the unit you select is simply a cabinet over the toilet, make sure it fits into your available wall space and mount it. It can vary its height depending on your personal preferences). If your unit has legs that extend toward the floor on each side of the toilet, leave at least a few feet of space for breathing on each side so that you can easily slide it out of place. Most units come in sizes that will work with standard toilets.

With these tips you will have no more problems to be able to store your towels in your small bathroom.
