Grab Bars

Grab bars are essential for added safety when bathing. There are two types of grab bars. The most popular one attaches to the tub or shower wall. It is recommended that a professional install this type of grab bar to ensure that it is anchored securely to the wall. If the bather needs help stabilizing himself when entering and exiting the tub then consider a suction mounted bar. Suction grab bars have a rubber suction cup on both ends and actually stick to the wall. They should be checked periodically to ensure the suction is holding.
