How to Install a Toilet Paper Holder - The Home Depot

Gather your tools. You’ll need a tape measure, a pencil, painter’s tape, drill, screwdriver and level. The toilet paper holder you choose will include the hardware you need.

There are two types of toilet paper holders to choose from:

• The single-post holder is the easiest to install. It only requires one bracket. You don’t need a level, and there’s minimal drilling. Some single-post holders feature fixed posts, while others offer a swing arm that can push out from the wall to accommodate a larger, double roll.
• Double-post holders require two sets of brackets and come with a spring-loaded rod. Pivot-style toilet paper holders also require two brackets, but instead of a spring-loaded holder, one side has an attached bar that lifts for loading a new roll.

Tip: For an extra quick solution, consider a freestanding or standalone toilet paper holder. They don’t require any tools or installation.

Grab a pencil and a tape measure and have a seat. Measure the distance from the toilet bowl to the wall or cabinet you are installing the holder on. Double check your reach.

• For most users, the toilet paper holder should be a distance of 8 to 12 inches from the toilet bowl.
• For children, or shorter users, 8 to 9 inches is ideal.
• For taller users, 10 to 12 inches is preferred.

Next, measure for height. A toilet paper holder should be positioned 26 inches from the floor to keep it at arm level.

Tip: If installing for users who many need more help, consider using the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) guidelines. Install the holder 7 and 9 inches in front of the toilet bowl and a minimum of 15 inches but no higher than 48 inches above the floor.

Most holders include an easy-to-follow template that can be taped to the wall with painter’s tape. Once measured and taped in place, the template will show you precisely where to drill.

Following the height and distance marks you made in Step 1, tape the template to the wall.

If your new single-post toilet paper holder doesn't have a template, hold the bracket in place and use a pencil to mark the drill holes.

For double-post holders, mark the left side first and use this mark to find the location for the bracket on the right side. Each bracket requires two drill holes.

Double check your pencil marks and template with a level. Make sure they are perfectly level and plumb. Then, use a small nail to make an indentation on the pencil marks. The indentation will act as a guide for your drill so that it won’t slip. Make sure your drill bit is the same diameter (or slightly smaller) as the shank of the screw. This will make the screws fit tightly.

Drill into a wall stud if possible. If you’re drilling into sheetrock, tap in the wall anchors before the screws for an extra-secure fit. Drilling into tile is a bit more challenging. Mark your drill holes as directed above. Use a masonry bit in the drill. Drill slowly and carefully to avoid cracking the tile. Tap in wall anchors very gently with a hammer and insert the screws.

Next, attach the mounting brackets. For a double-post holder, screw in the left-side bracket first, and you’ll be a pro when you screw in the right side. For both types of holders, place the bracket on the wall over the drill marks with the bracket’s arrows pointing up. Using a screwdriver, guide the screws in the holes to secure the bracket. For holders with two brackets, repeat on the right side. Slip the posts over the brackets for a snug fit.

Some holders come with an additional small screw hole in the bottom of each cover. This set screw is designed to prevent the holder from pulling away from the bracket due to frequent use. Tighten the set screw with an Allen wrench or hex key.

For single-post holders, just slide the roll onto the arm. For spring-loaded holders, place the roll on the roller and pop it in, one side at a time. For pivot-style holders, lift the arm and slide the roll on. Whether the paper hangs over or under is entirely up to you.

Three facilities in Arizona – the paper mill in Gila Bend (with an annual production capacity of 61,000 metric tons) and two converting facilities in Phoenix – and one converting facility in Duncan, South Carolina, officially become part of Sofidel’s production footprint.

“This is another important milestone in our growth journey in North America. The location of these production assets – particularly the three facilities in Arizona – allows us to significantly strengthen our presence in the western United States. This enhances our ability to serve customers and improves our efficiency by reducing delivery times and optimizing logistics” stated Luigi Lazzareschi, CEO of Sofidel.

“The Royal Paper team and its 35 years of paper manufacturing experience in the US market are excited to join the Sofidel family to serve its customers and consumers more completely” said Steve Schoembs, CEO of Royal Paper.

Importantly, Sofidel also plans to offer employment to a significant portion of Royal Paper’s workforce, helping ensure continuity and laying the foundation for future growth together. 

With this acquisition, Sofidel now operates a total of 15 facilities in the United States, a market that represents 50% of the Group’s total revenue.

Meanwhile, two production expansion projects are progressing in the U.S.: one at the Duluth paper mill in Minnesota, where buildings are under construction to house new converting lines and an automated warehouse; and one in Circleville, Ohio, where a new paper machine – the third at the facility – with a capacity of 70,000 metric tons, will be activated.

For the Royal Paper acquisition, Sofidel was advised by “Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton” as legal counsel.
