The 16 inch grab bar is a perfect solution for those who have limited mobility, weakness, or are at risk for falls. The 16 inch grab bar is a great choice for a horizontal grab bar because its length means it can be installed into 2 studs in most situations. The grab bar can be conveniently installed in various areas throughout the home such as by the toilet, bathtub, shower, or stairs.
Using a grab bar enhances safety around the home by providing a stable and secure support when doing daily tasks such as getting up from the toilet, getting in/out of the shower or bathtub, and walking up/down the steps in the home.
Having grab bars allows the user to be independent and have privacy with daily tasks which will decrease the need for caregiver assistance.
The grab bar can be placed horizontally, vertically, or diagonally to best fit the area and meet the user’s need.
