How To Use The Bathroom

Introduction

Noisebridge has two bathrooms. One bathroom is large and wheelchair accessible. The other bathroom has a window.

Paper Towel Dispensers

Both bathrooms have paper towel dispensers. When the paper towels dispensers get low, extra paper towels start to fall out. So it's a good idea to keep the paper towel dispensers reasonably full.

Reloading

Although there exists two keys to open the paper towel dispensers,a person with reasonably thin hands and arms can reach up the papertowel dispenser from the bottom. A spring-action clip in the very top center can be pushed down long enough to open the paper towel dispenser for reloading.

As of this writing, a Costco-sized case of paper towels are located above the snack shelves in the kitchen area.

Composting

Paper towels are compostable. Used paper towels may be disposed in the green compost bin in the kitchen area.

Soap Dispensers

Soap dispensers are located above each sink in both bathrooms. Their location is based on the fact that most people are right-handed. Their location is also so any soap will spill into the sink. Finally, the soap dispensers are located low enough so as not to interfere with a mirror being properly placed directly above the sink.

Reloading

The top back left corner of the soap dispenser has a small square notch. Push in the notch with a paperclip or similar small object. While pushed in, the top lid will open from the front. Just dump the liquid soap into the dispenser until its reasonably full.
