A toilet paper dispenser for use by those with mobility issues.

Many of us may not realise and take the ease of use for granted when using the Katrin System Dispenser, but there are a few design features put in with those with mobility and other disabilities in mind that can make a big difference.

First is the size, it is designed to be slim and narrow, unlike some bulky dispensers. This makes it easier to, firstly, put in place at the right height for specific users, including those using commodes and other aids. It also makes it easier to get to the toilet without a bulky dispnser blocking access.

Also there is the adjustable brake system, designed to ensure toilet paper doesn’t accidentally roll on to the floor, but the adjustment can be used to ensure that is doesn’t stop anyone with less grip from easily pulling out the toilet paper they need.

The core catcher stops the core falling on to the floor, and needing picking up, when the roll is finished, so it can drop down and allow the second roll to fall into place immediately with no awkward mechanism to deal with.

For these reasons this Katrin dispenser is a popular choice in many residents’ bathrooms in care homes and hospices.
