[FONT=Verdana, Arial][FONT=Verdana, Arial]I need to install grab bars in my tub... or I'll be stuck in there forever.
This old timer usually showers, but I DO enjoy a good soak.

If you have grab bars, how large...and where were they placed ?
Thanks,

I have one in the stall shower and one on the bathtub wall.
They're about at a 45 degree angle and SECURLY screwed into the tiled walls.

My son, a building contractor installed both of them for me.

I only use the stall shower and, believe me, it helps. Sometimes the tiled floor gets pretty slippery especially
if I'm trying to wash my feet; one at a time with one hand on the washcloth and the other hand on the grab bar.

BTW, Both are about 30" long. C'mon over sometime and I'll demonstrate how I use them.
 
Thanks, John...

My husband (also John) will be installing.... so I'll send him to observe.

Sincerely, thanks for the info.
