Stylish 700 Series Ceramic Soap Dish Choices
Old description: Do you need a soap dish for your shower? Yes you do! There are 4 design choices for surface mount ceramic tub and shower soap dishes, the square vanity soap dish, and two fully recessed soap dishes. Most of the soap dish designs other than the fully recessed are available in multiple mounting methods. But not all mounting methods for each. The product photos below will describe which come in which mounting methods. We also show one design with a drain hole, the AR171, and a specialty design, the BM782. That one is a nice tumbler holder or small bottle holder for the tub area.
The Scoop on AC Products: This note will be the same, or similar on all 7 of the Series 700 pages.
ACP went out of business in November, 2022. Production stopped, they sold off excess inventory for 5 weeks, and in December, 2022, closed up shop entirely. Since November of 2022, we have been selling off our inventory and the inventory we were lucky to grab before their demise. As of January, 2024, we wildly scattered choices of soap dishes, many still in white. It is worth looking through the color drop down menus to see which items we have. We might surprise you and fill your need. Items completely gone are steadfastly being removed from our web pages.
The Lenape Pro Series most resembles the ACP Stylish 700 Series. Check it out for thin-set mount soap dishes, thin-set pieces available in white, black, and bone/almond.
Additionally, these two pages will be of help to outline substitute items:

New recessed soap dishes from Lenape are IN STOCK.
Lenape acquired the AC Products mold for this item. The Lenape white is a little less white than AC Products C1 white. Bone is slightly darker. Black matches black. And the soap dishes are about 1 pound heavier due to a stronger clay used to make them.
Bone picture will be added soon. We just received bone in on March 7th, 2024. White and Black have been in stock for months.

How do I know if I need white or bone?
Bone is a very light color, sometimes confused as being an off-white. Bone is best described as start with white, add the tiniest hint of brown, stir it up, and you have bone. There is also another light color that gets mixed up with white and bone, that is called biscuit. Biscuit is start with the white, add a tiny hue of yellow, and you create a yellowish antique white look. Biscuit color is NOT made by Lenape, only white and bone, and then black.
In these next two pictures, white is shown on the left, bone on the right.
The BR794 soap dish: (Sept. 2023)
Although we are running low, and out of many colors, here is an update. The BR796 TP holder and BR794 soap dish will continue to be made in gloss white, gloss bone/almond, and gloss black. The white, bone, and black are IN OUR STOCK.
The BA thin-set mount:
They must set into a 1/4" deep or slightly greater depth hole. Many people have referred to this as a recess mount. That terminology is not correct. Thin-set basically gets put in place where a piece of tile has been omitted, and thus it attaches to the same wall surface that the tile is attaching to. And it can be applied using the same adhesive. The 1/4" projection on the back is not the full size of the back. The full width and height of the soap dishes will overlap adjacent tiles and grout lines. All the tub soap dishes and vanity soap dish are available in a thin-set mount.
The BF and AR flat back mount:
Designed to be glued onto ANY flat surface. Glue them over tile, drywall, greenboard, or sheet rock. Flat back does not require the same inlay opening as thin-set. Flat back is great as an after thought mounting. You have a fully tiled wall and would like to add a soap dish, you can do so with the flat back mount without having to chisel out any tiles. It saves time, and saves a lot of muscle work. Great for mounting over smaller cut outs in tile too. For some vanity soap dishes that were a thin-set mount, but half height, they had fit into 4" wide by 3" high holes. Most of the thin-set soap dishes require a 4x4 hole. To save on attempting to cut your hole larger, you can just use a flat back mount right over the top of the hole and hide the hole. Most 700 Series soap dishes are available in flat back.
The BC clip on mount:
Great for drywall or wood walls. Can be used on tile too if you wish. Each clip on soap dish will come with a mounting clip, plastic anchors, and screws. The clip mounts on the wall first, the soap dish slides down onto it. On tile, you would need to drill into the tile with a ceramic tile drill bit, and then definitely use the plastic anchors. A screw pushing against the plastic anchor is better than a screw pushing against ceramic tile. Less chance of breaking the tiles.
Use caution when sliding your soap dish onto the mounting clip when on a tile surface. The backs of the soap dish are not glazed. They could scratch your tile as you slide them downward. Hold them steady and forward as you slide them down. When you reach the down position on the tapered mounting clip, they will snug in place. You can add a tiny bit of adhesive behind them for a more permanent mount if you like.
The BM725 and BM782 mud set mount:
Similar to the BA725, but the protrusion on the back requires a 1-1/4" deep hole to fit into. Popular with professional tile setters. Commonly put in with a mud pack (mortar). Very common for mounting on sheet rock.
The BR794 and BR795 recessed mount:
These two soap dishes require a 3-1/2" deep hole to fit into. They are the same width, but the BR794 is taller and can be used as a tumbler holder too. It has a lot of interior space. These are very common for shower stalls as they do not protrude more than 3/8" past the tile surface. Make sure you have sufficient wall depth for them to fit into. Be aware of where your pipes are in the wall.
Clicking or tapping on any of the soap dish images above will allow you to see expanded photos of the back sides so you can see how the mounting methods look. When mounted, those with multiple mounting methods appear the same from the surface.
