Types of Grab Rails
When choosing a grab rail, there are many factors to consider, including the following:
Check that there is sufficient room between the rail and the wall to allow the person to secure a substantial
handgrip.
Usually, a space of about 4 to 6.5cm (1.5 to 2.5 inches) between the wall and rail is sufficient for most people.
Ensure that the rail is comfortable to hold, especially if the person has weak or painful hands.
The Grab rail should have a diameter of between 3 to 4.5cm (1.25 to 1.75 inches).
Finish of grab rail
The finish of the rail may be necessary from an aesthetic point of view and for the grip the surface provides.
Polished or chrome-finished rails may be attractive and hard-wearing but can be quite slippery to hold,
especially when hands are wet.
Coated or plastic-finished rails are usually hard-wearing and will provide a warmer feel.
Coated rails allow a choice of colours for colour coordination of bathroom accessories or to help
the visually impaired.
Slip-resistant finishes, offering increased grip, are often achieved with a knurled or a ribbed finish.
The improved knurled grip will be helpful for those occasions when the user has wet hands.
