Where to Use Grab Rails

Grab rails are suitable for all areas of the bathroom including the shower and toilet areas, as well as for general support anywhere else in the room. As one of the most used bathroom accessories, grab bars can be installed in a range of locations including hotel rooms, public bathrooms, hospitals, schools and shower facilities at various angles and positions. 

Their main purpose is to provide support to steady individuals while using the bathroom, creating grip and balance. Facilities that are used by multiple people especially, such as hospital toilets or public washrooms, need to be suitable for everyone, including those with limited mobility or accessibility needs. 

Our vandal-resistant grab rails are manufactured from heavy gauge Grade 304 stainless steel, and some can be manufactured to custom lengths, shapes and specifications as required.

When to Consider Purchasing Grab Rails?

If your public or shared bathroom has not been modified to suit disabled users or those with restricted mobility, it is a good idea to consider grab rails. Installed around the toilet and shower area, the rails provide assistance in the bathroom and significantly reduce the risk of slips and falls. 

Whether you own a business such as a hotel or manage a hospital, you must take responsibility for the safety of your environment. Grab bars are a simple yet effective solution to make your bathroom safer and more accessible-friendly.

Key Considerations When Purchasing Grab Rails

When choosing grab rails, there are a few essential things to consider. First of all, think about where the grab bars are going as you need to choose the correct products for that application. For example, standard grab rails may be suitable for hotel rooms but in correctional facilities or hospitals anti-ligature designs could be better. You should also consider the size of the bathroom and which area of the room the rail is being placed. This will determine which type of rail is most suitable in size and design. 

Next, what kind of finish do you prefer? Stainless steel is a great option as it is durable and easy to keep clean which is essential in commercial and public settings. The finish should also fit in with the existing bathroom decor to create a seamless look. 

Lastly, consider how the grab rails are installed. Screw fixtures provide greater stability than alternative options such as suction cups that can easily slip down the wall. At Britex, our rails use multi-point fixings for efficient installation so you can make the most of your bars as soon as they arrive.
