Thank you for purchasing Drive’s No Drill grab bar. The
No Drill Grab Bar provides the ability to mount using the
internationally patented no drilling required technology
on premium surfaces such as tile, stone, glass and metal.
The no drilling required adapter system allows for ease of
installation, durability, performance and no holes in the
walls! The grab bar can also be removed, if needed, with no
damage to the surface. Moreover, with an additional set of
adapters, the bar can be re-installed in minutes anywhere
you like as long as the surface is suitable for the no drilling
required system.
Positioning a Wall Mounted Grab Bar
Before deciding whether to install a grab bar horizontally,
diagonally or vertically the following needs to be taken into
consideration: Horizontal grab bars offer better leverage
to a person getting up from the bathtub or up and down
from a toilet, whereas a grab bar placed at a 45 degree
angle to the toilet or bathtub rim is easier for people of
differing heights to reach. Horizontal grab bars should be
located 33 to 36 inches above the finished floor around
toilets, 33 to 36 inches above the floor of the bathtub and
close enough to the shower head wall in order to support a
person adjusting water temperature. Vertical mount is ide-
ally wall mounted on the entrance to the tub and directly
under the shower head to assist with safe entry and to
prevent from falling while showering. The grab bars are
also ideal to mount directly to the tub edge to aid children
in safe entry and exit from the bathtub.
