Benefits of bath safety products
If you have limited mobility, it’s important to make sure your shower or bath is fitted with good bathroom safety equipment. The last thing you want to happen is a slip or fall that could easily have been prevented by using bathroom hand grab bars for example. Shower mobility aids are a popular choice for anyone wanting to ensure maximum safety in their bathroom. Bathroom Republic offers a range of accessibility bars, shower seats and walk in shower to enable you to shower or take a bath a safely as possible.

Shower seating
If you are looking for bathroom safety equipment for seniors, our shower and bath seats might be just what you need. We understand that in most households, more than one person will need access to the same shower if it’s the only one the house. Therefore, many families need their bathroom to be adaptable to suit a variety of people’s needs. One way you can create an adaptable bathroom is to install a foldable shower seat. This is one of the best shower aids for the elderly as it is essentially a shower chair for seniors to use to support them as they wash. Not only does the compact design support a weight of up to 95.5kg, but it also folds away when you no longer need to use it. This is available with a chrome or white mount.
If you would prefer your bath safety products to be transportable and easy to move, our non-slip shower and bath stool is probably a better option for you. You can use this stool inside and outside of the bath and the non-slip feet will keep it stable if the floor is slightly damp. This is fantastic for carers who need to help dress someone in a seated position outside the bath. With a compact design, this stool will fit most showers and baths and even has adjustable feet, so that you can set it to the preferred height.
Bathroom hand grab bars and walk-in showers!
You can find these in our accessibility bars collection. Not all of our bathroom grab handles are the same. We sell some that are straight and some that are angled. Angled grab handles are better if you want to use something to pull yourself up and out of the bath. Straight handles are mainly just for steadying yourself. Some of our grab handles even have a soap dish attached for added convenience. You could also install these into one of our walk-in showers that allow you to have easy access to your shower. Rather than stepping over the side of your bath, simply walk in whilst using the bathroom hand grab bars to keep yourself stable.
Overall, installing shower seating and accessibility bars is a great way to create a safer environment for washing if you have limited mobility. If you have the space, installing a walk-in shower or walk-in wet room, could be even more beneficial for easy shower access. Browse our shower seats, accessibility bars and walk in wets rooms to find what best suits you!
