Title: Shower Bar
Post by: dickreid1 on September 01, 2013, 09:50:54 pm
We are accustomed to having a removable overhead bar in the shower.  This is convenient for hanging wet towels and rain coats as well as creating extra closet space.  Home Depot had the end cup/socket pair of connectors and an adjustable length closet bar.  Installation was easy. 

The bar in place (http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2877/9651284340_c521d9ff9a_o.jpg)   The connector cup end (http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5506/9648050457_0969c90320_o.jpg)

Bonus: I am 5' 9". It turns out the bar is so high that I never have to think about removing it to take a shower.

We have the same setup. It works out very well.

I liked your new towel bar so much that I ran out to our PC to check on doing the same thing. Unfortunately our sky light comes right down to the ceiling in a curving motion, no flat area. I don't see any place to put the cups without drilling into the plastic sky light. So instead I got two command hooks and put one in the corner by the medicine cabinet and the other in the opposite corner. Then I took a short piece of clothes line and put loops in both ends. Now I can string the clothes line and use it. Not as nice as your pole, but it works.
