Intended Use

The  Swing-Up  Grab  Rail  by  Mangar  International  is  a  wall  mounted  steel  rail, 

which when mounted next to a toilet, provides support and balance when sitting, 

standing or transferring from a wheelchair or walker. The rail can be raised back to 

the wall when not in use or when transferring from the side.

Safety Precautions

sufficient strength.
