Grab Bars: Proper Location and Installation May Be the One Thing Keeping You From Misfortune!



Grab Bars: Proper Location and Installation May Be the One Thing Keeping You From Misfortune!
As you know, I am always telling people that the location of the Grab Bar is critically important. The location is determined by the person’s medical condition, their abilities, where they’re having difficulties in the process of sitting down and standing up, their level of balance and the surrounding environment. However, we can’t forget the basics! How can you tell if the grab bar is installed properly until it actually comes out unexpectedly?

You are the mercy of the people performing the installation. Grab Bars need to be secured into the structure of the house, like a stud, or use new technology that has been tested and proven to hold the weight of human beings when they’re holding on and moving quickly. The grab bar and the way it’s installed may the only sitting between you and a future catastrophe!

Use trained installers who work as part of a team to not only get the bar where it is needed, but also have the knowledge to make sure that it stays where it is needed.

Thanks and have a great day!
