R


esearch has suggested that as many as
57 per cent of Brits admit to using
their mobile phones while in the
washroom. Historically, options for
temporary storage of electronics in
washrooms have been limited – in the absence
of a specialised accessory, some users may
place their smartphones or tablets on wet
counters or on other surfaces, potentially
compromising hygiene or device safety.
To address these modern patron
behaviours, Bobrick had developed the new
B-635 Klutch Mobile Device Holder: a
modern, unique and practical solution for
keeping mobile devices safe and secure
anywhere in the washroom, including within
toilet partitions and cubicles, in common
spaces or any other private area where
storage is desired.
Klutch’s sleek, compact design “klutches”
mobile devices for safety and fits with any
décor. Its easy installation makes it suitable
virtually anywhere in the washroom and
integrated bag hook holds up to 136 kg, able
to accommodate multiple items. Klutch
features a three-year warranty and is

accessibility compliant, requiring no grasping
or twisting of the wrist to use.

Let the light flow with steel screens
Steel windows can be used in a number of ways
throughout the home. Each structure offers
solidity without being overpowering and exposes
more areas of the home to sun light, reducing the
amount of blue light used and allowing
homeowners to reap the benefits of natural light.
Members of the Steel Window Associationoffer
a UK wide service for the repair and replacement
of various types of old metal windows, doors and
screens, as well as being able to manufacture new fenestration which
fully meets the requirements of the Building Regulations.
