They have those hand railings that has suction pads, hence, no installation required. Is it safe? Anyone used it before? For those who need to use it, they tend to lean their weight on it. If the railings give way or lose its suction power, it could be dire for the user. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sanntan 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2010 I saw a shop in SGH that sells all kinds of bars for the elderly/wheelchair bound... even the wheelchair toilet. I also need to get some bars for my toilets and foyer steps. Will probably get them from SGH. good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the railings give way or lose its suction power, it could be dire for the user. I'm sure the product would have some form of weight limit for safe use. Of course, those that are installed proper into walls are safer, this is another option that is installation-free and removable. I saw it from the shop front. Shop name is Bion Advance.

Shop name is Bion Advance. thanks for all the suggestions...installation-free will be very useful indeed.. but i think those suction-pad types are better when place on to glasses but not wall tiles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
