Loose Handrail or Towel Bar?

A loose handrail or towel bar pulls away from the wall when its screws sit in drywall alone. Henderson Handyman Pros re-anchors each one into a stud or a rated anchor, so it holds weight again and stays level.

Why Handrails and Towel Bars Come Loose

  • Screws set into drywall with no stud behind them
  • Stripped screw holes that no longer grip
  • Dry air that shrinks framing and loosens fasteners
  • Daily pulling and leaning weight

How We Fix a Loose Handrail or Towel Bar

  1. 1

    Locate the stud with a stud finder.

  2. 2

    Remove the bracket and fill stripped holes.

  3. 3

    Re-fasten into the stud, or set a rated anchor where no stud is available.

  4. 4

    Level the bar, tighten it and test it with pressure.
