Amazon Basics Bathroom Handicap Safety Grab Bar, 24 Inch Length, 1.25 Inch Diameter, Holds up to 500LBs, ADA Compliant, Stainless Steel

The real deal, the 1.5 inch diameter provides a more comfortable, solid grip, the lids are so cool to snap off (they recommend a rubber hammer, and my little one worked perfect to pop em off the flanges, lotsa holes in case yr stud wasn't quite where you thought it was . . ;) . . . nice finish, and the brushed metal texture improves wet grip too . . but the screws . . . no taper, they use a phillips instead of torx . . still, they ARE stainless, and properly drilled holes can be driven into without too much cursing. . AND ADA COMPLIANT

First off, use your own screws. The screws they supply SUCK. Other than that this product is great. Easy to mount, recommend a power tool. Easy to clean and very sturdy. Worth the investment.

If Available Consider The Amazon Used! Just Bought (2) At Huge Discount To Get (2) Brand-new Bars With Open Flaps Advertised As Good Condition! They Are Mint Condition! I Have These Mounted Indoors & Out And Zero Rust! They Are Solid As A Rock Mounted With Only (2) Screws One On Top And One On Bottom When Your Only Going Into A Stud in the Wall.This Product Is Identical to the Home Depot Grab Bars Just Different Brand Names and Packing Materials But Made In The Same Plant With Same Brackets! I Bought The Delta Brand 36" And Figured It Would Be As Good Or Better But I Was Wrong! The Covers That Fit Over The Hardware are crap With The Delta and the Mounting Welded Flanges Only have 3 Holes.The Amazon Basics and Home Depot (SAME PRODUCT) Are More an Industrial Grab Bar with No Fancy Stylish Junk. The 36" Home Depot is $90 and the Amazon Basics is $31.40 and are The Same Exact Identical Product Made in The Same Manufacturing Plant, The Delta Brand Is Different But Not Better! It's Ok But For The Money You Just Can't Beat The Amazon Basics! Solid as a Rock and Quality!First Picture Is Amazon Basics 18" and Second Is Delta 36" And I Have Many More Amazon Grab Bars In My Showers Etc. I Only Bought The Delta Because I Got It For Less Than I Could Find a 36" and Like I said Home Depot Wanted $84.61 But Then You Look At The (HOME DEPOT) GLACIER BAY GRAB BARS At $23.00 on Sale for a 36" And That Is The Same Exact Product as the $84 DyiomBathroom Handicap Safety Grab Bar, 36 Inch Length, 1.25 Inch Diameter In A different Box. Look At The Mounting Welded Flange on All These Bars and 95% Are All The Same Except Delta and Maybe Moen? The GLACIER BAY GRAB BARS Are Again The Same Exact Product as All The Others At triple The Cost So If Your Looking For A Fancy Product Name and Colorful Box and Are Willing To Pay Twice For The Same Products?Same With Gasket Sealers! One Company Fills The Tubes and It All Comes Out Of The same 55 Gallon Drums! RED, BLACK, BLUE, ETC It's All The Same Product In Different Tubes That Claims High Heat on One Tube and Dura-Bond Racing Gasket Sealer At 3 Times More Money :O) They Are All The Same Gasket Sealers No Matter The Outer Tubes and All The Colors Are The Same Other Than The Color Except Clear Gasket Sealer Is Not For Gas or Oils But If The Tube Says Its For Oil Seal and the Other Tube Says Good For Gasoline and The Other Says Its for Extreme High Performance Nascar Racing It All Pumps From the Same 55 gallon Drums and a Product Change is a Pallet Of Tubes and If The Tubes Are Smaller Then a Piston Stroke Adjustment to the Filler. The Color Red Oowww! That Must be Good For Heat? It's The Same As Black Only Red..

Super quality easy installation. I don’t know why I would pay more for this now that I know Amazon sells a good quality version.

easy to install, perfect size, using for towel bar as well as a grab assist to stand bar for elderly person.Be sure to get the size for your studs for sturdy installation.

I installed it for my back steps and it works perfectly. Good price, good quality, easy to install.

So long as you install this with heavy-duty toggle bolts (in drywall, or, if you’re lucky, use its included wood screws into a wall stud), you’re going to love this bar. It’s designed to smartly hide all the fastening hardware. Good construction.

As much as it pains me to admit it, my wife and I are getting older. Things that didn’t concern you at all in your youth become more important, such as being safe in the bath tub and shower. With a wife who has become a bit wobbly on her legs, it was time to put up a safety bar in the shower. The funny thing is that I find it convenient, too.I wanted to find a reasonably priced, stainless steel bar – not a chrome plated one. I also wanted to find one that was 32 inches long so that each end could be anchored into a stud in the wall (studs are usually 16 inches on center). It isn’t easy finding something like that, but Amazon was the place to go. This AmazonBasics bar comes in a couple of different diameters and several lengths, including what I wanted (1 1/2” diameter – 32 inches long).The mounting holes allow you to orient this vertically, horizontally or on an angle. I mounted mine horizontally. The screws that came with the bar were not long enough to go through the tile and wall and deep enough into the stud for my satisfaction, so I had to purchase longer stainless steel screws. I have an old house, though, with plaster walls, so the screws may be long enough for your application.After locating the studs I drilled the mounting holes through the tile with a carbide bit. The holes in the mounting plate are close to the sides of the bar so when I went to put the screws in I used a suitable extension in my drill/driver to for proper clearance for the drill/driver head. If that makes no sense, you’ll figure it out yourself when you go to mount it. A regular screwdriver would have worked, too, but who does that anymore?After mounting the bar, and before snapping the end covers in place, I smeared a bit of silicone caulk along the top edge of the flange and over the top of the screws, just to help keep any water from creeping into the wall. I don’t know if this was necessary, but it eases my mind.This thing is solid! Mounted directly to the studs, it does not move. I am so much more comfortable with my wife using the shower now, and I find it handy myself. Drop the soap? It’s nice to have something to grab onto when you bend over to pick it up. And it’s not a bad place to hang your wash rag when you are done with your shower. I’m very happy with it. For the price I think it is hard to beat.
