Shower caddy made to fit over square pipe?

Factual Questions
1

The shower pipe in the condo we moved into a year ago is a square, just about one inch. All the “over the pipe” caddies I can find are made for round pipes. Whatever I google seems to come up with quite ordinary caddies. If they’re over the shower pipe, they’re for round pipes.

I have a suction cup caddy but it keeps falling off.

Do you mean the short, slightly bent pipe that sticks out of the wall and the shower head screws to? Because it’s very cheap and easily replaced.

3

Have you considered forming the wire to the shape you want? A wood buck and hammer should make you the master of your world.

Everything in the shower has this square motif (there is a foot shower and third removable hand piece) and the actual shower head is a big square too. Not something I want to replace.

Yes, I’ve thought of bending the wire around the pipe, but thought I would enquire here first.

Two suggestions:

  1. Get a hose clamp big enough to go around the pipe. I know the pipe is square, but if you tighten the clamp down enough it’s not going to go anywhere and if you position the screw at the top, it’ll keep the caddy from sliding off.
  2. If you have drywall in the shower/tub area (as opposed to acrylic or tile all the way up to the ceiling), put a hook into a stud and hang the caddy from there. My shower head is detachable so a caddy didn’t work well so I ended up hanging it from a hook on the opposite side of the shower head. Best decision ever. It was considerably more convenient to have over there.
    FWIW, I’ve since upgraded to this caddy and love it. It’s a little hard to tell in the pictures, but it’s not held up with suction cups. Those are clips mounted to a very thin, adhesive backed piece of plastic that sticks to the shower wall.

I stayed in a big hotel in Italy some years ago, where everything in the bathroom was square, including the lavatory bowl and seat.

I’m just not that shape!

Everything in the bathroom, save the toilet seat, is square or rectangular. Design motif. Using a hose clamp is an interesting thought though.

That’s what my dad did when I was growing up. Looked just like this. I see no reason why you can’t do the same thing with a square tube, just tighten the clamp down enough so it doesn’t move. The only thing that would concern me, and it’s not even a big concern is that it could gouge or scratch the corners. But a cheap piece of neoprene or rubber under the clamp would take care of that.
