Franklin Brass Voisin (1-Pack) 18' ADA Grab Bar Bathtub Handle Safety Grip in Bright Stainless Steel 1-1/4' diameter Wall Mount Shower Handicap VOI5918-BS

After a hospital stay our house was evaluated for safety. I know this is temporary, but I really hate grab bars and I know others due too.This grab bar is attractive and it comes in. The sizes our evaluator dictated. She specified the ADA height, the horizontal placement by the toilet and the 30 inch and 36 inch sized bars. I thought it excessive but did as she said. These bars look pretty or as pretty as grab bars can be. They can also serve as nice towel holders. We are pleased.

I bought this to replace a towel bar that my father in law pulled off the wall. This thing is perfect. It spans from one stud to another perfectly. It is extremely solid so he can hold on to it to get in and out of the tub. It is also quite nice looking.

Before I purchased this I had a regular Standard towel Bar & one day I lost my Balance & grabbed it & the Bar & and a bunch of tiles flew off the wall!Luckily I was not hurt.Then I purchased this Grab Bar to Replace the towel Bar & what a difference this thing is solid & it holds my Weight + it could also fit two full sized Bath towels on it too!I’m very Happy with this Bar & i highly recommend it for anyone that needs an extra Grab bar in there Bathroom A++

Great looking safety bars

Love the streamlined style and hidden screws. Easy to install and the polished chrome adds a bit of elegance to a grab bar.

This safety bar has more style than the bars that are curved at both ends and look like they came straight out of a nursing home. I purchased the polished stainless so it would better match the other fixtures in our master bathroom. The price is higher than some cheap looking bars but significantly less than other name brand bars. The quality is excellent. The metal is thick and not flimsy. The brackets are very substantial and the screws provided are long and high quality. There is only one problem and that’s with the placement of the pre drilled holes in the base mounting bracket. Remember, a wall stud is only 1 1/2” thick despite being called a 2x4.I mounted the bar vertically and was very precise with my stud finder marking the center and each edge. The issue is that once I drilled and installed a screw in the exact center of the stud the remaining pre drilled holes are off the stud. If you drill “straight” through any of those holes you miss the stud entirely. I’m sure you don’t want a single screw in each end of the grabber bar. So I needed to drill the others at an angle slanting the screw in toward the stud. It worked fine and the bar is very sturdy & stable. I would buy it again despite the hole placement issue which the manufacturer should address. All that said, you can’t go wrong with this attractive safety bar.

Works fine.

These grab bars were perfect for our needs. Two 80 year olds getting in and out of our showers.
