Thanked: 220Hangin' the strop
Hello everyone,
Can anyone suggest other ways to hang a strop in the bathroom other than the towel rack? There is limited space, and there must be some kind of hook or ring out there that can be screwed into a stud.
Thanks.

Check the hardware isle of whatever store you go to. You can get the larger "cup hooks" that work. That's what I've got..right next to the towel rack.

I have limited space as well, so I picked up a couple of hooks, installed them behind the bathroom door, I have one about waist-high for stropping and the other higher up to keep them out of reach from the kid and cat when not in use.
Why doesn't the taco truck drive around the neighborhood selling tacos & margaritas???

Thanked: 220Thanks for the replies, the stropboard is a good idea. The towel rack won't hold out much longer!

I use one of those hooks that goes over the door. It's made for hanging robes, towells, or something, but it works well for strops.
...and it was cheap...

Thanked: 14You can even use just the door knob with some rope.
I've taken rope, tied it aroudn the door knob, then clipped the strop onto the rope. Worked perfectly and allowed me to strop at the waist, which was a lot better than when I used a towel rack.

Thanked: 14Also, you could always just install some small hooks under your sink somewhere so that you can strop from a waist high level.
