On the inside of your shower door, there's a latch. On the
outside, there's a towel hook. The latch is released by putting
a towel on the hook and pulling on the towel. That way you
don't accidentally get into the shower and get all wet before
realizing you forgot to grab a towel.

If you have no towel but do have eight or nine washcloths, will they be heavy enough to deploy the latch? One might have to soak them down in advance to get adequate weight. |
|

I am concerned now that the hook might be mounted too low for showerside safety, if it were sharp and barbed. |
|
| |
er, wouldn't a towel hook that's connected to the water supply be the best way to avoid wet person/no towel syndrome.... |
|

Or you could go the perv option and install a webcam, then voyeurs who mention the lack of towel get kudos and more peep time? Might even be useful, they can point out if you miss a bit. |

So when the towel falls off the hook while you're in
the shower, then what? |
|
| |
You pick it up? The latch could be opened from the
inside, just like a normal gate latch that has a pull so
you can open it from the outside. And anyway, it's
not dependent on the weight of the towel to activate
it. You actually have to pull down on the towel to
release the latch from outside the shower door. |
|
| |
Of course, you could bypass the mechanism by simply
pulling on the towel hook itself, but then you'd at
least be aware that you don't have a towel, so the
latch still serves its purpose. |
