ABSTRACT:
A toilet paper dispenser for mounting on a wall such that a roll of toilet paper is rotatably mounted on a spindle which extends generally perpendicular from a support plate mounted flush with the wall. In one embodiment, an outer plate may be removably mounted at an outer end of the spindle and a locking mechanism associated with the outer plate and with the spindle serves to releasably secure the outer plate to the spindle thereby retaining the roll in position. In other embodiments, a removable cover including sidewalls may be used in place of the outer plate to substantially envelop an unused roll of toilet paper. A locking device on the cover is operable to prevent undesired removal of the roll from the spindle, and a viewing slot can provide a visual determination of the amount of paper remaining on the roll. Alternatively, the cover can be fabricated so as to envelop only the upper portions of a roll, leaving the lower portions exposed. Also a cutting edge may be provided at the lower edge of the cover so that any desired length of paper may be separated from the roll by a user.
