Emtek 2503-1-FBS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How far off the wall does this Emtek bar style paper holder stick out?
Projection is 3-3/8 inches on every version. That is the clearance you need from the finished wall surface, so check it against a vanity side, door swing, or toilet tank that sits close to the mounting spot before you commit to a location.
2) What is a comparable bar-style paper holder if the Emtek Wrought Steel bar paper holder is not the right look?
The Emtek Wrought Steel Paper Holder - Bar Style is a wall mount holder in a steel substrate with a rustic styling. For a two-post bar arrangement in a plainer design, the Sure-Loc Basic 2-Post Paper Holder covers the same wall mount function, and the Deltana 98C2001 is a Classic double post holder in solid brass. Both carry the roll on a bar between two posts rather than the wrought steel bar profile.
3) What should I use instead when the wall only allows a single-post paper holder?
The Emtek Wrought Steel bar style holder spans between mounting points with a bar, which needs clear wall on both sides. Where only one anchor point is workable, the Deltana 55D2001 and Deltana BBN2001 are single post toilet paper holders, and the Sure-Loc Brighton is a single post paper holder as well.
4) Is the Emtek Wrought Steel paper holder wall mounted or does it sit on the counter?
Wall mount. Two rosettes fasten to the wall and the bar spans between them, so you need solid backing or anchors at both mounting points.
5) Is this Emtek holder suitable for a commercial restroom or apartment turn work?
Emtek lists the Wrought Steel bath line as residential. It suits single-family, condo, and higher-end apartment interiors in a rustic look. For high-traffic public restrooms, a purpose-built commercial washroom accessory is the better call.
6) What is the difference between a bar style paper holder and a single post or euro style?
A bar style carries the roll on a bar spanning two wall rosettes, so the roll is captured on both ends and will not slide off. A single post type such as the Deltana 55D2001 or the Sure-Loc Brighton holds the roll on one open arm, which lets you change the roll without pulling a spindle. Euro style holders like the Sure-Loc Baden and Boulder or the Orca Hardware 3655 Swirl are the open-arm look in a more contemporary profile.
7) What are the alternatives to the Emtek Wrought Steel bar paper holder if I want a two-post holder from another brand?
The Sure-Loc Basic 2-Post Paper Holder is the closest straight equivalent in format. Deltana's 98C Series 98C2001 Classic is a double post in solid brass if you want a traditional brass look instead of the wrought steel rustic profile. Orca Hardware's 2752 Cypress and 4852 Blakely both ship with a plastic tube roller.
8) Which paper holders look like substitutes for the Emtek bar style but hold the roll differently?
Euro style holders are often shelved alongside bar holders but carry the roll on an open arm rather than a captive bar, so the roll loads from the end. The Sure-Loc Baden and Sure-Loc Boulder are wall mounted Euro paper holders, and Orca Hardware 3655 Swirl and 5255 Ripple are Euro holders as well. If the specification calls for a bar between posts, the Emtek Wrought Steel Paper Holder - Bar Style is the one that matches.
9) Is there a paper holder with a replaceable roller instead of a fixed bar for a rental unit?
The Emtek Wrought Steel Paper Holder - Bar Style uses a steel bar as part of the assembly. Where a consumable spring roller is preferred so a broken tube can be swapped without pulling the mount, Orca Hardware 2752 in the Cypress series and Orca Hardware 4852 Blakely are both supplied with a plastic tube.
10) What is the difference between the Emtek Wrought Steel bar paper holder and a solid brass holder like the Deltana 88DTPH?
The Emtek Wrought Steel Paper Holder - Bar Style is built on a steel substrate and offered in Flat Black Steel and Satin Steel finishes with a choice of #1, #2 or #3 rosette, all at a 3-3/8 inch projection. The Deltana 88DTPH is an 88 Series toilet paper holder in solid brass. Brass suits baths where the rest of the trim is brass based; the wrought steel range suits a rustic scheme.
11) Will this paper holder match the rest of an Emtek Wrought Steel bathroom?
It is part of Emtek's Wrought Steel Bath Hardware series, so it coordinates with the other pieces in that collection in the same Flat Black Steel or Satin Steel finish. Keep the rosette number consistent across pieces for a uniform look.
12) Which of these paper holders suits a residential remodel rather than a commercial restroom?
The Emtek Wrought Steel Paper Holder - Bar Style is designated for residential use and belongs to the Wrought Steel bath hardware series. Comparable residential-style options include the Deltana 55D Series 55D2001, the Sure-Loc Brighton, and Orca Hardware 4852 Blakely, all decorative wall holders rather than heavy-duty institutional dispensers.
