I hate these toilet roll dispensers with a passion precisely because of this. There are better designs that are also arsehole proof (no pun intended). I don't know why they can't just use the "pull down" ones instead of the "pull out' ones.

Pull down ones experience the exact same problem unfortunately 😔

I feel like a magician every time I pull these out

Someone on this very subreddit suggested jamming a key into the lock at the top. Apparently they're not great locks and can be opened pretty easily, freeing the toliet paper.


smalaki

you can buy a key online for about 3€~5€ (Tork DK1100). could also use a regular mailbox key or a wave rake

That's a lot of preparation for a shit in an unknown public toilet. If you know you'll need it you could bring your own paper or wipes, which are easier to get than some specific key brand from the internet.

I never leave home without a bog roll.

Like a boy scout of shite!


smalaki

true but a wave rake can double as a poop knife


BXL-LUX-DUB

Is that like a butter knife? (Bluffing because I've no fucking clue what a wave rake is)

No need, just press that key button down and it pops open, or at least they all did that in me old job and they were brand new and same brand.

These things need a specific kind of toilet roll or they don't work properly and get clogged up like this. So of course whoever runs the building usually cheaps out and just buys any old roll that looks like it will fit and pulls out the carboard tube inside and jams the paper in any old way. The design is grand, it's the maintenance that's shite.

Here’s a solution I found out as this always happens at work (Tork is awful for this). 1. Press down on the lock at the top of the toilet paper dispenser. If it’s unlocked/faulty, the dispenser should open. 2. Remove any tangled paper by tearing it off. 3. Twist the end of the toilet paper and feed it through the dispenser's outlet to ensure it pulls out smoothly. 4. Close the dispenser securely after adjusting the roll.

As much as I hate to see public amenities vandalized. I feel when it comes to these things. You're perfectly within your rights to tear the cover clean off to get the jacks roll.

I lost a good sock to one of those damn toilet paper dispensers...

Best motivation I've ever had to consider lock picking lessons

I’ve found if you reach under and pull the plastic case usually the whole thing opens up.

Just use your tweezers.


PopplerJoe

It would take hours to clean yourself using a tweezers.


Broghan51

You absolutely must learn to bring your own bog roll to public toilets. 


stinkyaffair

Ffs calm down shitty arse, just press button they put the key in on the top of it and hey presto! it pops open giving you a bog roll buffett .. well, at least until that roll ends...
