Bobrick Paper Towel Dispenser & Waste Receptacle Units

Bobrick paper towel dispenser and waste receptacle units put the towel supply directly above the bin, so used towels drop straight in. This range draws on the TrimLineSeries, ClassicSeries, and Fino Collection. Matte black is the dominant finish, and satin stainless steel is also available. Receptacle capacity runs from 1.6 gallons on the recessed B-36903.MBLK to 12 gallons on the B-39003.MBLK. The satin B-3944 is a recessed convertible model with a 12-gallon receptacle. Most units are recessed, with semi-recessed and surface-mounted versions for walls that cannot take a full cavity. Designers planning a matte black restroom and contractors working from an accessory schedule both reach for this line.

Start with the wall. Recessed units need a framed opening planned before drywall, and semi-recessed units work in a shallower cavity. The surface-mounted B-380349.MBLK bolts to an existing wall instead. Capacity comes next, and it should track how often custodial staff service the room. ADA Section 309.3 puts the dispenser's operable parts within the Section 308 reach ranges. For an unobstructed reach, that means 15 to 48 in. above the floor. Most units in the range are listed by Bobrick as ADA compliant.
