Having ADA compliant grab bars installed in the bathroom is vital to ensure safety.  It is highly critical that grab bars be properly installed and strategically located to fit the needs of the user.

Grab bars need to be installed in and around the shower area to provide safe entry and exit.  Grab bars must be placed where the person is going to reach, grab and brace themselves as they are getting in and out of the shower.  Placing a wet, slippery hand on the wall can be dangerous!

Height and angle positioning of grab bars is vital.  Grab bars can be installed horizontally, vertically or even diagonally to increase stability.

Finally, be sure to have grab bars installed around the toilet.  One unique type of grab bar is one that is designed to be moved out of the way when not in use.  There are even grab bars that function as a toilet paper holder.
