Installation - Grab Rails
Warning
: Before fitting, ensure that there are no concealed electrical cables or pipes
where the fixing holes are to be drilled. This can be checked using electronic detecting
tool. If installing a metallic rail in a bath/shower area the rail may need to be earthed
(IEE wiring regulations); not all rails are suitable for use in a wet area.
1. Ensure the wall and fixings being used are suitable. Bristan are unable to specify
fixings due to the number of fixing/wall type combinations.
2. Position the Support Rail on the wall in a horizontal position.
3. Drill the holes to the correct depth for the wall and fixing type used.
4. Ensure the Support Rail is securely fastened to the wall and fit the flange covers to
conceal the fixings.
If in doubt about anything on this sheet consult a suitably qualified professional with
experience in fitting products of this nature.
Using the Support Rail
• Before first use, check that the Support Rail is securely fixed to the wall.
• Use the Support Rail to assist, NEVER apply full weight to the product.
• Regularly clean the Support Rail with a non-abrasive cleaner.
• All fixings and bolts should be checked on a regular basis by a competent person.
