Caroma Care Support Germgard Grab Rail 90 Degree 450X450 Right Hand or Left Hand Matte Black

Straight rails, from 300mm to 1000mm, suit beside a toilet, bath or shower for steadying yourself. Angled and T-bar rails give a hand hold for both standing and sitting, making them a common choice beside the toilet and in showers.

Many angled and T-bar rails come in left-hand or right-hand versions to suit the side of the toilet or shower they mount on. Some 90 degree rails can be fitted either way.

Stainless steel gives a practical, hard-wearing look, while brushed nickel, matte black, chrome and white rails blend in with modern bathroom accessories. A colour that contrasts with the wall makes the rail easier to see.

Grab rails must be fixed into solid framing or proper backing, never plasterboard alone, so plan noggins before the walls are lined. If the bathroom must meet accessible design requirements, confirm the rail type and position with your builder or occupational therapist.
