Profile
Offset means the handle and towel bar do not share one centreline: the ‘J’ handle (one rounded end, one squared) is set at hand height outside, and the straight ‘I’ towel bar is set where a towel hangs inside. Both are 1″ x 1/2″ D-profile bar, hand-welded, in Brushed, Polished, Matte Black, Satin Brass PVD or White.
Installation
The handle and towel bar mount as one assembly through holes in the glass, with connection hardware included. Choose the length and the center-to-center height (18″, 24″ or 30″) to match the drilling pattern on the DWG file before the glass is tempered. Suitable for 3/8″ and 1/2″ (10–12 mm) tempered glass. Optional backplates raise projection to 2 3/8″ (60 mm) per side.
Care
Rinse and dry after showering; clean with mild soap and a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive pads or chlorine-based cleaners, especially on the coated finishes.

Frequently asked
How do I choose the length and center-to-center height?
Length is the overall handle and towel bar size (18-1/2″, 24-1/2″ or 30-1/2″); center-to-center is the vertical distance between the two glass holes (18″, 24″ or 30″). Pick the C/C to match your glass drilling, then the length in proportion to the door. The DWG file shows both dimensions for each option.
What glass thickness does the offset set fit?
The J+I offset set is intended for 3/8″ and 1/2″ (10–12 mm) tempered glass, the standard range for frameless shower doors. Connection hardware for the glass is included. Contact JWL before ordering if your panel is outside that range. Holes must be cut before tempering; do not drill tempered glass.
What is the difference between the J+I and L+I offset sets?
Both put an ‘I’ towel bar inside the shower. The J+I set has a handle with one rounded end and one squared end outside; the L+I set has a handle with both ends squared. Choose J for a softer edge where the hand lands, L for a fully squared look that matches JWL L-series door handles elsewhere.
Can I get the handle and towel bar in different finishes?
The set ships in a single finish — Brushed, Polished, Matte Black, Satin Brass PVD or White. For a two-tone look, JWL sells optional colour-matched or split-finish backplates separately, which sit between the hardware and the glass and add 3/8″ to the projection on each side.
How fast does it ship, and is there a warranty?
In-stock sets ship in 1–3 workdays from Vancouver, BC to Canada and the US; orders over ship free. The set is covered by a limited lifetime residential warranty on materials and workmanship (commercial: 5 yr brushed stainless, 2 yr coated). Full terms: jwlhome.com/warranty.
