Bath Safety Bars & Rails

Grab bars come in a variety of styles and sizes. They provide solutions for individuals needing assistance transferring in and out of the bathtub or shower. As you begin thinking about why type of bath safety bar you need, please consider a few things: Suction cup grab bars are made to help balance and cannot withstand full weight bearing force. They are there just to provide a little stability and will need to be checked often. The permanently installed safety rails for the bathroom work in more of a fall prevention capacity.

Safety Grab Bars may be used anwhere in the home or a facility where patients need additional balance support. Varying sizes starting at 12 inch lengths and going up to 48 inches with longer customized safety railings are available. Always look for the weight capacity on each product and think about what type of surface on the grab bar is right for you. Some are smooth, others are "knurled" or provide a rougher surface for a sturdier grip. Some safety rails are ADA approved as well.

There really is no need to sacrifice style either. Many grab bars and bath safety rails are designed to blend right in with your current decor. It is important to note not to use a towel rack or towel holder as a grab bar as this can result in injury.
