Product description
The Bard & Brazier Jacob's Ladder JCW184/80 is a wall mounted towel rail measuring 1840 x 800mm, a sculptural towel warmer whose staggered, ascending bars give it the look of a ladder climbing the wall. It is available in 12 hand-applied finishes and as a hydronic, sealed electric or dual fuel rail, with a heat output of 1,774 Btu/h (520W).
What the price covers: The price shown is for one complete towel rail in the size, fuel type and finish selected, plus a set of valves if you add them in the Valves option. If you need more than one rail, set the quantity before adding to your basket — each rail is priced individually.
Home of Clay is a Bard & Brazier stockist. Every rail is made by hand to order at their factory in Wolverhampton, and our team at the Newcastle-under-Lyme showroom in Staffordshire can help you choose the size, finish and fuel type.
Where to use the JCW184/80
The Jacob's Ladder looks eccentric and eye-catching — made for contemporary bathrooms where the towel rail is meant to be a feature. A 800mm width sits comfortably on most bathroom walls, beside a basin or opposite the shower. The 1840mm height makes it a full-height rail with room for several towels and bath sheets. Being wall mounted it keeps the floor clear for easy cleaning; it needs a solid wall or noggins behind the board for fixing.
At 1,774 Btu/h (520W) the JCW184/80 warms towels well and puts real background heat into an average-sized bathroom or en-suite. In a large or poorly insulated room, treat it as a supplement to the main heating.
Hydronic, electric or dual fuel
Hydronic connects to your central heating (closed system) or hot water (open system) and works when the heating is on. Sealed electric uses an element heating liquid sealed inside the rail and is hardwired to a fused spur, so it works independently all year round. Dual fuel is plumbed in and also has an element, so it runs on the heating in winter and on electricity in summer. Electric elements are fitted right hand.

Valves are not included in the rail price. Add them in the Valves option above — Bard & Brazier recommend the Pullman exposed valves, Portobello exposed valves for the Jacob's Ladder — and they are made in the same finish as your rail, with the cost added to the price shown. Electric rails do not need valves. Pipe centres for the valves are 592mm, and the rail projects 200mm from the wall.
Measurements may vary slightly because each rail is handmade, so confirm final pipe positions with us before first fix.
