To remove a Delta towel rod from the wall, you will need to first locate the mounting brackets that hold the rod in place. These will typically be located at each end of the rod, and will be secured to the wall with screws. Here are the steps to remove the towel rod:
Gather the tools you will need, including a screwdriver or drill with screwdriver bit.
Locate the mounting brackets at each end of the towel rod.
Using the screwdriver or drill, remove the screws that secure the brackets to the wall.
Carefully lift the towel rod off of the brackets and set it aside.
If the mounting brackets are not reusable or you do not plan to reuse them, you can remove them from the wall by removing any remaining screws.
Go to a hardware store and wall anchor screws to reinstall the brackets that hold to towel bar to the wall. There should be two brackets and two holes on each bracket. If the existing holes are to big, drill two new holes on each side. Screw the brackets to the wall. As you turn the screw, the will expand in the screw hole and hold the brackets that you attach the towel bar to.
Hi. Are the brackets (mounting posts) the correct distance apart? For a 24" rail, they should be 26.22" apart (outside to outside). If they are not then they probably need to be moved so that they are.
If they are correctly spaced, are the "notches" in the mounting posts facing downwards? If not, make this so. If the notches are facing downwards, are the screws tight enough? If, not, tighten screws. Hope this helps. Regards, Myles
There should be a small screw in each of the arms that secure the towel bar to the wall mounts. You will need to loosen each of these to remove the towel bar from the wall and to release the mounting bracket which has pulled free. To repair you need to puchase a larger size moly plug, toggle mount or other suitable hardware to secure the mounting bracket to the sheetrock wall (should not have pulled free is screwed in to the stud). Once you secure the mounting bracket then you are able to re-install the towel bar by placing the arms over the mounting brackets and tightening the small screws on each arm of the towel bar.

Newer towel bars don't have set screws... Solution-slide off! There is an opening in the bottom of the bracket. Slide your flat head screw driver inside the opening and place pressure on the bottom. Make sure you place enough pressure to allow the holder to slide off.. Now pull on the holder and it will snap off...
The part that holds the bar up should either have a screw in the bottom to tighten up against the wall bracket or a hole to access a scew and turn the screw out to tighten to the wall bracket
