All Bars/Poles/Rails
Grab Bars are metal poles fixed into the wall to provide support when taking a shower, washing hands, using the toilet, or getting in and out of the sink. Available in different sizes and lengths, grab bars give you the stability you need if you have balance issues or limited mobility. Some bars even have textures surfaces so that you can still establish a firm grip even when it’s wet.
Installing grab bars strategically around the house, especially in the bathroom, can help you and your family avoid any accidents or risks. Whether young or old, we have a risk of slipping in the bathroom, and with grab bars, that risk will be significantly abated.
All grab bars have to be fitted accordingly as specified by various regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The proper placement is made to help achieve the best positioning for the safety of the user. All grab bars featured follow the ADA guidelines and have been worked out scientifically to be able to accommodate the size of as many people as possible.
Going around a tiled bathroom may be easy for some but for others, including children and the elderly, they may have a more challenging time because of the slippery surface. Grab bars offer you something that is sturdy and solid to hold onto as you make your way through your bathroom routine. This will be most important in the shower or bathtub because of their wet surfaces.
Some grab bars feature rubberized handles to increase its grip potential even when it’s wet. Others will also have a textured handle to help those who experience reduced sensation in the hands, in order to achieve a stronger grip.
