Measure your stud clearance at home first and them compare the dimensions to those of the magazine holders you are considering buying.

Other things to consider are the aesthetics of the rack and the overall décor of your bathroom.

An item like this is really more of a basic bathroom remodel rather than the purchase of new hardware or fixtures.
