KOHLER Toilet Paper Holder, Bathroom Toilet Paper Holder, Alteo Collection, Polished Chrome, K-37054-BN

Got it up and it works fine and looks great! I used clear mailing tape to hold the template in place. Drill right through tape to make screw holes. I USE WALL DOG SCREWS FOR A TIGHT HOLD WITH NO ANCHORS NEEDED 😁 drive screws into wall to mess only minium tight.left side swival may not work if too tight. Included allen wrench was a reak plus. However, getting the set screw right was a challenge.When you get the set screw snug, you will have success😄😃😁UPDATE, months later. Unit came loose from the wall due to poor design😡 Pivots from the base of wall causing stress on the base and loose screws. I ended up purchasing a much better product from Amazon by American Standard $31.00 and worth it. This model does not pitot from the base. Rather, pivots from a point at end of arm. Easy to install, looks great, bold, with class. Very good product😅😄😃😁 All other tp holders suffered from same issue. Look for one and two star reviews to reveal this design flaw😄

This was a difficult install for my handy man but, once he realized best way to install it was a snap. The holder is very easy to replace toilet paper, there arenet any springs to put in place. Just pull arm up, drop roll on and voila. all set.

The media could not be loaded. great toilet paper holder. It was easy to install once i read the instructions. I liked the fact it came with a cardboard piece that had the pre-drill holes. It was easy to line it up, level it off and drill through it. It worked like a charm and it is level. It is taking a little getting used to because I am used to the spring-loaded toilet paper holders so i find myself pulling it straight back in stead of upwards but I'm sure with time and muscle memory I will get use to it. The pieces themselves are heavy and great quality.

Some reviews made this seem really hard to install. I thought it was really easy. The box comes with lots of screws and anchors for ceramic tile or drywall installations. The right mounting bracket has a slot for one screw to be mounted such that it can rotate off vertical. I can't see how people have a problem mounting, if they tape the template to the wall and mark the screw holes before drilling. At first, I couldn't figure out the mechanism, and in fact thought it was defective - so I installed the first one to a board to see how it worked. It seems to have to be mounted to rotate. DO NOT MIX up the placement of the left and right mounting brackets - since they have different functions Once mounted, the left side rotates up a little more than 45* and the paper roll slides right on. There is plenty of room for Costco tp- a new roll isn't impeded by the wall. Pretty cool design. If anything, I wish it was at least an inch, and maybe two inches narrower - that's why I gave it 4 stars. There's a lot of play for the roll to move from from side to side. But all in all, it matches the other Alteo towel bars and takes all of 1. 5 seconds to change the tp roll. Very cool innovation. Very well made, good quality and pretty ORB finish.

I like that that this is a hinged toilet paper holder so you don't have to remove the center. The individual parts are quite hefty out of the box so you are paying for quality parts. I think Kohler has provided very helpful guides and instructions to make it an easy installation. That is, if you read them and make use of it. If you toss everything to the side and look at them if you "need to" like we did the first time (we put them in all our bathrooms now), let's just say you will be giving unnecessary time to installing something.

Beautiful modern design. In this holder, there is no joint on the pivot arm. The pivot arm opens by swiveling against the wall. Thus, there is a tiny gap between the pivot arm and the wall. Installed correctly, the gap is no more than 1/16 inch. The gap must be there or you would be gouging bits of drywall off whenever you change a roll of paper. For all pivot tissue holders, the installation must be exact. When folks say they paid a professional to do it, that doesn't mean a whole lot. A pro just wants to finish as fast as possible. Plus, it is unseemly to charge say an hour of labor to install a silly toilet paper holder. If you're handy, this holder is definitely recommended, If you never do things around the house, choose a normal non-pivoting holder. If you install the holder using drywall anchors, there's no second chance if you mess up because a do-over forces you to put the holder in an inconvenient alternate location. I was able to install the pivot side in a wall stud with the catch side in drywall anchors. Install the pivot side first, then mark the exact location for the catch side.

I purchased this for a bathroom remodel because it looked great. In receiving it, trying to unscrew the part that needed to turn was near impossible and almost caused injury to my hand. When I finally got it unscrewed and the whole thing installed, it did not sit flush with the cabinet. The part that hinges is too long and doesn’t allow for appropriate flush installation. While I know there has to be some space so it can hinge without damaging cabinet, the amount of space is frankly too much. This is a very disappointing product and not what I had come to expect from the Kholer brand. I would not recommend this.
