Grab bars (14)

Stainless steel grab bars for safe and accessible toilets

Grab bars give users support when sitting down, standing up and moving around in the toilet or shower. For older people, people with disabilities and patients, they make the washroom safer and easier to use independently. You will find them within our range of sanitary accessories.

Types of grab bars

• Straight grab bars in lengths of 387, 455, 610 and 760 mm, for wall or shower mounting.
• Angled bars: a bar with a 90° angle to the left or right, an angled bar at 130° and a classic corner grab bar.
• Left and right wall grab bars, matched to the position of the toilet.
• Wall-to-floor bars with an extra rail, left or right, plus a recessed version for added stability.
• Swing up bar: a folding bar that can be raised when space is needed beside the toilet.

Who and where?

Grab bars are essential in care facilities, hospitals, residential care homes and assisted living, but also in accessible toilets in offices, hospitality, schools and public buildings. All models in this category are made of stainless steel, a sturdy material that withstands frequent cleaning.

What to consider when choosing

• Toilet position: decide whether you need a left-hand or right-hand version.
• Wall strength: a grab bar must be firmly anchored. With a lightweight wall, a wall-to-floor bar offers extra support.
• Clear space: choose a swing up bar when a wheelchair needs to fit alongside the toilet.
• Regulations: for accessible toilets, follow the applicable guidelines on positioning and height.

The grab bars in this category are made by MediQo-line.

Frequently asked questions

Which length of straight grab bar should I choose?
That depends on its purpose. A shorter bar is sufficient beside a washbasin, for example, while a longer one offers a wider grip zone next to the toilet or in the shower.

What is the advantage of a swing up bar?
A folding bar provides support when lowered and frees up space when raised, for instance for a sideways transfer from a wheelchair.
