The Role of Grab Bars
You’ll find grab bars available in a range of materials, sizes and intended uses. Bathroom grab bars and shower grab bars are probably the most familiar. These bars can be long or short, and can be mounted vertically, horizontally, or diagonally within or beside a shower or bath. In all cases, they work similarly:
- They help avoid falls and fall-related injuries.
- Grab Bars provide better accessibility to the bathtub.
- They prevent slipping on wet shower tiles or wet bathtubs.
Grab bars are available in a number of different finishes and construction materials to help match the aesthetics of your bathroom or other installation area. However, perhaps the most common (and best suited material for bathroom use) is stainless steel.
Grab bars made of stainless steel are durable and very strong, capable of supporting your full body weight when properly installed.
