Answering your question honestly is not possible for me. It was necessary to take our shower door off in order for the grab bar to be installed on the tile As per the instructions on how it should be installed for medicare compliance, our Home Health nurse asked it to be installed this way. In our shower, we had a bench that sat 3/4 in the water and 1/4 outside of it. By doing so, I was able to grab the bar, sit on the bench, and slide into the bed. As much as I would like to have helped, I was unable to do so.
As long as it is anchored to studs, it should work fine. If there are any holes drilled in the fiberglass, I recommend sealing them with high quality silicone sealant as soon as possible. In this case, fiberglass tub surrounds and shower enclosures must be installed properly.

There are some nice features, but the hardware is lacking. Moen, you have a gold brand name. Please let me know how to contact you When you are running a good business, your brand has tremendous value- why should you try to cheapen it with Do something about your hardware buyer and hire someone who knows what they are doing, and do not let the accounts rule your decisions. There is more value in your brand My two bars cost me a total of $3. 50. It is exactly what I described and is made very well. In the hardware department, the product was a complete mess. In two out of three screws (two bars), the heads were bent (tilted), the threads were coarse (hard to thread into a 2/4 hole even with a pilot hole), and the head slots were too shallow and the wrong shape. A #2 Phillips would spring out of them and tear up the head if kept in long enough. A quarter inch short of victory, I gave up after I destroyed two of them. After driving an hour round trip to ACE Hardware, I got 12 properly pitched stainless steel screws with poper #2 heads, and we had both bars installed in no time at all. Hex or Torx heads would have been You should take such an item to your favorite hardware store and buy some quality hardware to install them. Throw away all but one of the screws when you buy it. Time will be saved and your blood pressure will be lowered by taking this shortcut.
Reviewers are giving us 5 out of 5 stars right now. The only reason I chose this one was because it was listed as Amazon's Choice. In addition, the video shows SecureMount's hollow wall mounting hardware. Excellent - I really needed this I found two sets so I bought two. What about the hollow wall mounting hardware? Will safety bars support hollow wall mounting? What do you know? The latter is evidently excluded. There was no mention in the advertisement that the hardware shown was not part of the It was also not displayed as an additional purchase under the frequently bought together category. A customer service representative said "Sorry to hear this," when the form was filled out on Amazon's website. The manufacturer should be contacted. That's all you have to say? This product is bought and shipped from Amazon, according to the fulfillment information. Please visit www. com. As a result, I will not be contacting the manufacturer and I am completely disappointed with Amazon as their product descriptions are less than accurate.
That is not the case! In the first place, it is not included, you will need to purchase the "SecureMount" system for $11. There is a charge of 32 for each mount, and the system is rated at 300lbs pull rate (this system does not meet ADA requirements). Description of the product is very deceptive. The Grab Bar comes with 6 stainless steel wood screws with phillips heads in the size of a 2 inch. It is necessary for this method to find a wood stud in the wall where the sheet rock will be installed. A short wall consists of studs that are 16" on center, whereas doorways and long walls have studs that are 24" on center, depending on how your carpenter built the wall. You will obtain a 500lbs pulling rate and an installation that complies with ADA requirements with this system of installation. As described in the video and the written product description, this installation is not as easy as the SecureMount and may require a professional installer.
I have no doubt that our local contractor did a good job installing the bars to keep my husband safe. I just noticed that one of the bars rusted after using it for two weeks in a morning shower bath. I just don't think it's fair for a seasoned company like Moen to sell a product of such inferior quality.
It is a very nice looking product! This is a great price! I found the installation of this product to be very straightforward. There were only one or two things I didn't like about it the screws. The screws on 3 of my screws were stripped. Lowe's ended up having better ones, so I bought them there.
I mounted two bars, one to a wood door frame and another to a 2 x 4 stud in a bathroom wall, and every stainless screw stripped when As all of the deck screws are covered by the plate, mounting them is just about as good as it gets. This type of hardware should not be attached to a bar this strong. Why would a manufacturer make a bar this strong but give it such poor hardware? It is recommended that you pick up some tempered deck screws to mount this bar, if you decide to buy it. Although the steel pieces are carefully tempered and heat hardened, and they're painted with an anti-rust paint, had it not been for the screws they would have received six stars.
Six weeks ago, the bar was installed in a newly tiled shower and I noticed today that there were two rust spots on the.
Very happy with it. In two bathrooms, I have installed four of these. are definitely useful for elders, especially because they add a measure of safety. It was quite simple for me to install because I had the skills and tools for this type of project. Less equipped and less experienced individuals do not have the same skills and tools. You will probably need a bit of help, especially if you are setting in over tile, but a craftsman friend will most likely be able to do this for those who have such skills. Whenever I see 1- I like it It comes in a 1/2" bar size, with no knurling. Although it has a smooth finish, I find that it is quite adequate to my needs. Due to the lack of need for rounded-head screws, I did not use the supplied screws These accessories will be equipped with covers, and the tiny phillips sockets on the supplied screws would not be able to withstand much pressure. Hexadecimal is not a hexadecimal representation Any screw with a large head or a square or star driver will work if the head is Two inches is the length of those provided. Some of the pieces were 2" and some were 2" There can be an additional 1/2" thickness to the tile or wall covering, depending on thickness. A stud finder, a drill with a variety of bits, for me a hammer drill and concrete bits, a level, and a pencil to mark where the hidden studs are located would be helpful. It is unfortunate that most buildings in the United States have studs on 16" centers, so these 24" bars will need to be mounted vertically on a stud or sloped between two studs It doesn't make sense to me to pay $116 for Amazon to install it, unless you are installing on a dry wall and fastening it to a board that will span three studs.
