Types of Grab Bars
Wall mounted grab bars are the most stable. They attach to the wall at both ends. They come in several sizes and shapes.

Straight grab bars, can be installed horizontally or vertically and we can position them the where you want. Some people like grab bars to be vertical - pointing up and down. Other people feel more secure when they grab a bar that is horizontal - stretching from side to side.

Straight grab bars are very versatile as they can be installed horizontally, vertically diagonally attach to the wall at only one end.

L-shaped grab bars, are designed for installation flush against a bathtub wall, or wrapping an inside corner of a shower stall or the bathroom walls.

Inside corner grab bars are installed in a roll in wheelchair accessible showers and transfer showers, to meet commercial building ADA guidelines. Inside corner safety bars are reversible to for opposite corner installation.

U shape grab bars are used in roll-in showers where the individual having a shower is seated in a roll in shower chair and not transferred to a shower chair.

Can you grab it easily?
Your grab bar will have a diameter that is 1¼ inches to 1½ inches . Choose a bar that has a textured surface . This will make it easier to grip.

Many bathtub and toilet safety bars aren't designed to support a heavy weight and don't meet safety codes for people with disabilities. Consider them products strictly as an assist , do not use them to support your weight.
