Carex Toilet Safety Rails - Toilet Handles for Elderly and Handicap - Home Health Care Equipment Toilet Safety Frame, Grey

When my mother was sick in her 80s, she lost quite a bit of strength and balance because she was ill. As soon as she got off the toilet, I was afraid she would fall. Our family did not want the type that attaches to the toilet because we feared that it would cause the toilet to rock off its seal if she lost her balance. As a result. There are a lot of great options here. There is a lot of adjustability and it's We ordered a second one for the other bathroom after she found it so helpful. The fact that it can just be lifted off for cleaning is also convenient. was a bit self-conscious, and wanted it to be removable from the bathroom while family gatherings are going on. In contrast to a couple reviewers who indicated that the lid wouldn't stay up, this product works perfectly. Having said that, we had no problem with it. Recent changes to her toilets have brought her closer to the ground It is important to get the Carex Safety Rail before it is installed However, they may not look much different from regular toilets. Since the Carex rails come with 1" metal tubing, you would need at least 1" plus the depth of your cover & the width of the rails as well. Seats need to remain upright in order to remain A total of 4 are present. The distance between the front of the tank and the back of the seat/cover is 5 inches. For our case, we had a seat and seat belt The total number of covers is two. The thickness of this document is 25 inches. In other words, 1 + 2 (pipe thickness) = 4. The thickness of the seat and cover is 25 (seat/cover). 25, 26 Our room is quite large, so we have plenty of room to move around. Having learned that the seat review about the price was an unwarranted concern, I have attached some pictures to illustrate what the seat looks like with and without the seat. I love it! This is the toilet in my mother's house. I can't believe I am doing this. I love it! Several people asked if it could be folded up and transported. The item cannot be folded It is held together by only four clips, though, when used There is no need to install them You don't need to wrap them up just tape them to the frame with a ziplock bag If less is known about how it works, you will be "up the creek without a paddle" when it comes time The Carex Bathroom Safety Rail is a product I highly recommend. It should be a stand-alone product, not an attachment for.

Despite this, however. The item was bought to make the bathroom a safer place for my spouse who has mobility issues as a result of I read reviews of this product and thought it would be very durable. After he used the rails to rise from his throne, we discovered that if you are not able to exert equal pressure continuously on both sides at the same time while pushing (he is partially paralyzed on his left side) the support WILL tip over. A bad fall into the bathtub caused him to hit his head head first. This is a very expensive item and cannot be returned! cannot recommend this product for anyone who may have issues with their weak side.

This purchase did not meet my expectations. As far as I can tell, it is easy to put together and seems to be sturdy. The bars across the back of the toilet sit directly in front of the The person who is going to use this is going to have to use assistance standing because of their The toilet needs to be flushed each time she uses the bathroom, so she has to move the unit. My Kohler comfort height toilet has this sitting right in front of the toilet lever. The product has been described as being for ALL toilets but it is NOT. I am VERY disappointed with the product. It's impossible to flush the toilet without moving the safety rail away from the toilet if the safety rail is installed near the toilet. Had I known, I wouldn't have purchased this product.

The product was exactly what I wanted! I am so happy with it! A double knee replacement surgery is being recovered from. The straps are sturdy, well constructed, easy to adjust, and good My favorite feature is that it fits over the toilet (not attached to it). If I had bought the kind that attaches to the toilet seat, I can see that the wax ring was loosened by now by the weight of you putting all your weight on it to get This is a great item! I highly recommend it! is equipped with easy-to-remove locking pins that can be removed to fold the sides in to conveniently store it. As well as being a support, it can also be used to stand up. I like it a lot!.

We wanted to find something to help my wife get off the toilet after having foot surgery and being unable to take weight off her foot while she's recovering. As someone who relied upon her walker to raise herself, she was more likely to topple over because it was too tall for this purpose. It was not my preference to have one that attached to the toilet itself because it would require more work to install and possibly damage the toilet, in addition to the fact that the front support legs would probably be wobbly as they had no side support other than the arms that will bear In my opinion, this unit is perfect. It fits around the toilet (but is located in front of the tank, so there is no wall clearance issue), does not interfere with raising or lowering the lid or seat, and doesn't make it more difficult for others to use it. It does not interfere with the toilet paper roll in our case either, but this completely depends on where your toilet paper roll is located. As it is very sturdy and not wobbly, you can use it with confidence There is also a brace on every side and a strong double brace in the rear, in addition to the arms themselves. Would you mind telling me if your floor is 1) Did you install the four snap-in modules What combination of pushing and pulling should be used to position the clips correctly (so that the pins snap into place snugly against the metal leg all
3) Are the hex heads of the bolts seated properly in the hexagonal holes, and not just resting on top of the leg's surface? 4) Although the four screws which were pre-installed While the ones installed were already tight, I tightened mine a bit more just to be on the safe side.

Trying to hold on to only one side can cause the board to tip over, causing the person to fall and lose balance. It is hard to teach something new to my dad, who is 94 and has dementia. Normally, he uses his right hand as a lever to get up and down, and I didn't realize until we tried it that this would pose a problem. The following is not a bad review, just something to think about before you buy. Consider installing a metal rail instead, especially in the bathroom where you might fall quite badly. The rail can be mounted to the wall or floor to provide you with more stability.
