TB-63 CONCEALED TOWEL CABINET FACILITATES CODE COMPLIANCE
Last Updated: 01/21/2008
Bobrick Model B-318 paper towel dispenser provides a versatile element for the design
professional. It permits construction or renovation of small spaces that still serve washroom
users effectively and conform to height and reach requirements of universal access codes.

The towel cabinet itself is concealed behind a wall or mirror; only the towel opening is visible to
users. Since the dispenser opening may be below eye level, C-fold paper towels are not
recommended unless label or sign calls attention to the location of the paper towels. Minimum
height clearance of 6" (152mm) is required between paper towel dispenser and any projection
beneath it, permitting easy towel removal.

Bobrick's B-318 concealed paper towel dispenser is filled by pushing a stack of towels up
through the unique hinged self-closing panels that form the towel tray. Custodians can
replenish the supply quickly without doors to unlock. The towel tray permits the removal of
only one paper towel at a time.
