Commercial
Grab Bars

The most
important things to consider when selecting
commercial grab bars for your facility is the
strength of the grab bar, the strength of its
mounting and compliance with the requirements for
handrails and commercial grab bars found in Section
4.26 of the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA).
You should also check for state and local
requirements which may impose additional regulations
for commercial grab bars and handrails. A quality
commercial grab bar will be made of thick gauge type
304 stainless steel and will have a mounting kit
that includes stainless steel screws that are
capable of securing the grab bar and supporting
weights of at least 300 lbs. The bars must be strong
and the mounting must be sturdy or your commercial
grab bars will not supply the support your restroom
patrons rely on. Also, commercial grab bars should
have a finish that is easy to grip and have no sharp
edges. We recommend quality constructed stainless
steel commercial grab bars made by well established
manufacturers such as Bradley Corp. Their grab bars
are specifically designed to meet or exceed all ADA,
FHA, VA, ANSI and UFA standards. Bradley commercial
grab bars are found in commercial restroom
facilities throughout the World. Each Bradley
commercial grab bar includes the high strength
stainless steel bars and the necessary mounting
hardware required to provide a secure grab bar for
your patrons safety. Remember to follow all
commercial grab bar mounting requirements found in
the federal ADA regulations and any other state or
local regulation in your area. |
