Towel Radiator Brackets

[uncletone]

Hi All,
I imagine this has been asked before but I couldn't find an answer.

I'm looking to start the bathroom and the (towel) Rad is on a wall, that as of yet the Mrs wants to leave for the time being, with the idea that she wants to see how it look when its done.

Once everything is complete and she changes her mind and I have to take the rad off the wall to tile it, should I take the brackets off too or do my best to cut through the tile (the brackets are only the dowel type ones poking from the wall, so for me it would look neater to remove them to get the tile pucker)? My concern is that by that point the floor will have already been tiled (Which has the pipes coming out of it) Will the pipes will have enough flex to match up with the rad when its hung?

The tile is 8mm thick.

Thanks

Does the towel rail not adjust - closer/further away from the wall?

Thanks for the reply.

I think it will adjust further out, but not inwards as i think it has already been fixed at its closest point to the wall. So unless i can trim the bracket to make it smaller.

The bracket can be cut back to allow matching origianal position.

Thanks guys, thats what i was hoping for, rather than stretch the pipe work.

The brakets look very similar too (if not these)
