Types of Bathroom Caddies and Shower Shelves

Unless you have a niche or any other place to support things in the shower, this is the most important bathroom accessory.

You could improvise where to hang your towel or support a toilet paper roll, but without a shower shelf, your soap, shampoo, etc will be on the floor during the shower. Annoying, right?

Shower caddies have some positioning and fixing options. The most common ones are screwed to the wall. But if you don’t want to drill into the wall there are alternatives.

The ideal height to install a caddy on the wall is 1.20m / 4ft. Not let’s get to know the types.

Types of bathroom caddies and shower shelves - screw mount — **Drill / screw mount**: the safest and most practical type. There are options in different materials, triangular or rectangular, with one or more shelves.

Types of bathroom caddies and shower shelves - hanging — **Hanging**: there are models to hang on the shower and on its doors.

Types of bathroom caddies and shower shelves - freestanding — **Freestanding***: also available in many materials, sizes and shapes, this type has room for many items and also doesn’t require drilling into the wall, but its height is not as convenient.*

Types of bathroom caddies and shower shelves - tension pole — **Tension pole***: similar to the freestanding type, these models don’t need to be fixed on the wall, but a floor-to-ceiling pole allows you to adjust the shelves heights.* Of course it’s not suitable for any kind of ceiling. You’ll need a flat slab to install this pole.

Types of bathroom caddies and shower shelves - suctioned — **Suctioned:** an option of wall-mounted caddy that doesn’t require drilling into the wall, but it may not work as well and end up falling down quite often.

So, the choice of the best type of shower caddy or shelf for your bathroom depends on its situation. Do you know the right option for you already?
