Deltana 98C2003/24 98C Series Classic 24" Towel Bar, Solid Brass, Limited

It is a residential-grade bar. For an apartment, condo, or single-family bathroom it is the right class of product; for a hotel, gym, dorm, or public washroom where towel bars get hung on and yanked, spec a commercial washroom accessory instead. Property managers doing unit turns in multi-family are inside its intended use; institutional restroom work is not.

Plan on more than 24 inches of clear wall. The 24 inch figure on the 98C2003/24 is the bar size, and the mounting posts sit at each end and add to the overall span, so a 24 inch bar will not drop into a 24 inch gap between a vanity and a door casing. Measure the run you have before committing to the 24 inch over a shorter bar.

The Orca Hardware Camano 24 inch towel bar set is the nearest match on length, at the same 24 inch bar size as the Deltana 98C2003/24, and comes as a set. The Delaney Congaree 200 Series 24 inch towel bar set is the other 24 inch option. The Deltana 98C2003/24 is a solid brass bar in the 98C Series offered in Oil Rubbed Bronze and Brushed Nickel.

The Deltana 98C2003/24 is a single 24 inch bar. For a two-bar arrangement, the Emtek Traditional Brass double towel bar and the Emtek Sandcast Bronze double towel bar are both double bars.

Solid brass, both the bar and the posts. The 98C Series Classic 24 inch bar is brass through the substrate, not brass plating over steel or zinc, which is why it holds up in a damp bathroom without the finish lifting off a corroding core.

Two: Oil Rubbed Bronze and Brushed Nickel. If you are matching bath hardware across a unit, those are the only two finish options on the 98C2003/24, so a chrome or polished brass bathroom will not match out of this model.

Style family and what comes in the box, mainly. The Deltana 98C2003/24 is a Classic-styled solid brass bar. Orca's Camano 24 inch is also a 24 inch bar and sells as a set, as do the Orca 27 Cypress, 36 Swirl, and 48 Blakely sets. Emtek splits by design language, with Modern Brass, Transitional Brass, Traditional Brass, and Sandcast Bronze bath lines, and the Traditional and Sandcast versions we carry are double bars rather than single. Delaney runs the same way across its Congaree 200, Cascade 300, Acadia 900, and Denali 1100 lines.

A single bar gives you one hanging line, so two bath towels on a 24 inch bar will overlap and stay damp. If the wall run is short, a double bar carries two towels in the same wall width: the Emtek Traditional Brass Double and the Emtek Sandcast Bronze Double are both double-bar options. If you have the wall, two single bars dry better than one double.

The Deltana 98C2003/24 is a classic profile in solid brass. In brass with a different styling, Emtek offers the Modern Brass towel bar in its Modern Brass bath hardware line and the Transitional Brass towel bar in its Transitional bath hardware line.

The Deltana 98C2003/24 is designated residential and is a solid brass 24 inch bar, which suits apartment and single-unit bathrooms. Where a matched bath set is wanted across units, the Delaney Acadia 900 Series and the Orca Hardware 27 Series Cypress, 36 Series Swirl, and 48 Series Blakely are all sold as towel bar sets.

No. The Delaney Denali 1100 Series item is a towel bar post only, meaning the wall-mounted post rather than a full bar assembly, so it does not replace a complete 24 inch bar like the Deltana 98C2003/24. For a full assembly, the Delaney Congaree 200 Series 24 inch towel bar set or the Orca Hardware Camano 24 inch towel bar set are complete sets.
