Moen Stainless Steel Wall Mounted

VERY strong, properly mounted
When my wife was scheduled for knee replacement surgery, I started looking into grab bars … and finding a zillion brands, finishes, types, shapes, etc. After considering some of the fancier and FAR more expensive options, I came to my senses and focused first on specifications, namely, tubing wall thickness, welds, and attachment plates (flanges).The Moen bars are really basic, but the specs are decent, it’s a brand name bar, and they were returnable if I didn’t like them when they showed up. I ordered them and they are just fine.What I didn’t want to do – with any brand bar – was try to blindly attach them to studs. I do a lot of home improvement work and I can pretty reliably find studs with a finder and occasionally a magnet, but I also didn’t want to risk placing a critical screw too close to an edge or into a weak spot in the stud, like a loose knot, and there was no way I was going to use drywall anchors for something so critical. Finally, I found by reading descriptions and instructions that the flanges for almost all grab bars are circular. While that offer a lot of options for screw placement, their sizes are such that most will only accommodate 1 or 2 screws per plate, the other available holes not being over the stud, which wasn’t comforting.So, I opened the walls, installed blocking between the studs, patched, and installed the bars with 3 heavy gauge construction screws in each flange – checking first to ensure that the flange cover would fit over the screw heads. The bars are solid as a rock. The flange welds would probably fail before the screws or blocking would. There is no wobble, no hint of movement whatsoever, no matter how much you push or pull.I’m happy. My wife is happy. They look good. Plus they eliminated a couple of extraneous towel bars and hooks as I bought 36″ bars so as to serve double duty. One is always bare, the one on the opposite wall has a few items on the far end that isn’t actually used for grabbing.

Strong and very nice look. EASY TO INSTALL
These have a cover over the mounting rings and are very clean and safe indoor or outdoor.

Well made but very industrial looking.
This is a well made safety bar.I did return it as it was just too heavy in our personal home space. But if needed for an elderly care residence or individual with balance issues I would go with this bar.

Allows safe sturdy support for bathtub entry/exit
Getting older means less balance and stability as you enter/exit your bath/shower. This 𝑴𝒐𝒆𝒏 𝑩𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒎 𝑺𝒂𝒇𝒆𝒕𝒚 18-𝑰𝒏𝒄𝒉 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒆𝒍 𝑩𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒎 𝑮𝒓𝒂𝒃 𝑩𝒂𝒓 allowed increased stability when entering and exiting the bath/shower. I appreciated the textured area to prevent my wet hand slipping as I exited the tub. The stainless steel finish was a perfect match for my bathroom hardware and the 18″ length was just right. It was easy to install direct into a stud, as required. Any future needs for additional grab bars will be a 𝑴𝒐𝒆𝒏 𝑩𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒎 𝑺𝒂𝒇𝒆𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒆𝒍 𝑩𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒎 𝑮𝒓𝒂𝒃 𝑩𝒂𝒓.

Having recently had back surgery this makes it so much easier to ambulate from the toilet. As you get older these are a much have. Make sure you attach these to the studs. I would never trust any drywall anchor system for it to support any where near the weight these grab bars are rated for which is 500 lbs. Also the rail is 1 1/4″ in diameter vs. 1.5″ which looks much bulkier and an eye sore. Very pleased with the price and quality….Thank you Amazon, reasonably price and only took one day to deliver.

easy to install, affordable price, and easy to use.
