Abstract:
1. A method of assembling a towel rail having i) first and second vertically extending, elongate, tubular supports which oppose and are spaced apart from each other, ii) a plurality of spaced apart, horizontally extending, tubular beams, each having a first end with a first fastener and an opposing second end with a second fastener and iii) a plurality of holes formed in a side of each of the first and second supports, through which holes each first end of each beam extends into the first support and each second end of each beam extends into the second support, the method comprising the steps of: (a) threading an elongate flexible heating element through the first support; (b) looping an appropriate length of the heating element through each hole of the first support to form a looped section associated with and extending out from each hole of the first support, thereby forming plural looped sections; (c) threading each looped section through a respective one of the beams from the first end of the respective beams; (d) inserting the second end of each of the beams through a respective one of the holes of the second support to bring an abutment surface of the second end of each beam into contact with an inner surface of the second support; and (e) locking the second end of the beams to the second support by passing the second fastener of each beam through the second support to engage with a recess of the second end of its respective beam.
