Wall mounted chrome towel rail with Flexi-Fix technology allowing installation without visible screw holes if repositioned or removed.
The Croydex Flexi-Fix Chester is the towel rail that solves the problem of committing to a fixing position on tiled walls. The Flexi-Fix system allows initial positioning with adhesive, then permanent fixing with concealed screws — or adhesive-only installation for rental properties where drilling is not permitted.
Fitting accessories to tiled bathroom walls is always a moment of commitment — drill in the wrong position and you have a cracked tile and an unsightly hole to deal with. The Croydex Flexi-Fix system addresses this by separating the positioning step from the permanent fixing step.
The Flexi-Fix mounting plate uses an adhesive pad to attach to the wall initially, allowing you to confirm the height, level, and spacing are exactly right before committing to drilling. Once the position is confirmed, concealed screws pass through the plate and into the wall via pre-marked drilling points. The adhesive alone provides enough temporary support to check the position with a spirit level and ensure it is visually balanced with adjacent fittings. This two-stage approach prevents the most common cause of DIY bathroom fitting disappointment — fixing at the wrong height or off-level.
Chrome plated brass is a significant step up from the chrome plated plastic used in budget bathroom accessories. Brass does not flex under load, crack in cold temperatures, or yellow with age. Chrome plating on brass has a deeper, more consistent lustre than plating on zinc alloy or plastic substrates, and is more resistant to the surface pitting and peeling that affects cheaper fittings in humid bathroom environments.
For tenants or homeowners who cannot drill into tiles, the adhesive-only fixing option provides a functional installation without wall damage. For the adhesive to hold long-term, the tile surface must be thoroughly degreased before application. A silicone-free surface cleaner followed by a wipe-down with isopropyl alcohol gives the adhesive the best chance of lasting. Standard bathroom use — draping bath towels — is within the adhesive’s capacity; overloading with heavy wet towels is not.
The Croydex Flexi-Fix Chester is the towel rail for people who want a quality fitting without risking their tiles. Brass construction, concealed fixings, and the flexible installation system make it the right choice for tiled bathroom walls.
