Shower Access

Shower access equipment removes the small barriers that make showering hard: a step or hob at the entry, nothing to hold on to, a slippery floor. This category includes grab rails, half steps, shower rails, non slip mats and other simple aids that make the shower safer to enter and use.

Start with the person and their route into the shower. A grab rail at the right height and angle supports a step over a hob; a half step reduces the height of a deep step. Check wall construction for rail fixing, the load rating of rails and where water pools. These small items are often the first equipment a person accepts, and they help maintain confidence and independence.
