Useful units

Keep your bathroom organised with a bathroom storage unit. Tidying away your toiletries in storage baskets inside a bathroom unit is a practical – yet stylish – way to keep your space clean.

Go for a classic unit if you want a timeless look, or a bamboo unit for a stylish, modern twist. From double door to four drawer units and toilet roll holders, we’ve got various storage solutions for every space.

Discover our full range of bathroom storage units.

Over the door racks

Tired of wet towels lying around? Hang up your bath robes and towels with an over the door rack. Designed to sit over your door frame, they’re perfect for bathrooms with limited space.

For a touch of luxury, opt for a heated towel rail to provide warmth as well as a sophisticated storage option.

Suction storage

If you’re short on space around your bath or are looking for an easy access solution to your toiletries during a shower, utilise your wall space. With no need for drills or screws, suction bathroom storage can be attached to wall tiles, mirrors or glass.

Store your hair products, razors and soap in a shower wall basket. You can then hang clear suction hooks wherever you need them to hold your face cloth or loofah. Easily detachable, they can be moved around at any time.

Multi-use mirror cabinets

Mirrored wall cabinets are the perfect 2-in-1, as you can make the most of your wall space by having your mirror and storage combined. A bathroom statement mirror is a great addition to any small bathroom as they create an illusion of a larger space.

As practical as it is glamourous, our LED mirrored cabinet gives off a beautiful illuminating light and offers excellent hidden storage.

If you prefer a classic look, try a wooden wall cabinet and brighten up the space with bathroom lighting. This traditional cabinet will give your bathroom a more authentic feel and features adjustable and exposed shelves.

Make use of mason jars

A great way to upcycle mason jars is by using them to store small items in your bathroom.

Large mason jars make for a quirky way to hold your toothbrush and toothpaste. Or, smaller mason jars can store miscellaneous bits and bobs like cotton wool and cotton buds. Add your own touch with ribbon, yarn or paint to make your own unique storage decorations.

Top tip: Try adding some fairy lights to a large mason jar and use them as an alternative to candles during your next relaxing bath time.

Caddies and crates

Caddies and crates are perfect for seamlessly storing small bathroom products – from body care to bathroom cleaning bits. Ideal for smaller areas or minimalistic styles, our multi-tier caddy supplies a great amount of storage space without overcrowding the room.

Organise your beauty and bath products in style with beautiful rustic crates. Wooden crates are suitable for your bathroom accessories and can be placed on ledges and shelves or tucked away in a cupboard.

Handy bath essentials

A trolley is a great portable bathroom storage solution. Allowing you to keep your home-spa necessities and bath products in one place, the trolley can also be neatly tucked away after use.

The perfect addition to any bath time, a bath rack will allow for easy access to your must-have products and will prevent clutter from building up on the bath ledge.

Beautiful baskets

Keep your bathroom mess-free with storage baskets. Great for miscellaneous items, decorative baskets can be kept on display or tidied away in a cupboard.

Add a hotel-worthy touch with a jute woven basket. Store your toilet rolls in style or create a spa-like feel by rolling up your towels.

Woven baskets are also ideal for keeping the kids bath toys out of the way – so you don’t end up tripping over a loose rubber duck. The basket can be brought out for bath time and then neatly stored away again.

Add a towel ladder for an effortlessly stylish solution to organising your towels. Or, amp up the sophistication of your bathroom by displaying your favourite products on a wooden ladder shelf.

Top tip: Installing floating shelves is another way to create storage space in your bathroom. If you’re looking for more creative bathroom ideas, find out how to turn your bathroom into an inspiring oasis here.
