SHOWERS

Bathrooms |   Bathroom Sink  |  Bathtub  |  Showers

Showers can be easily modified to suit you and your family. A folding shower bench can be used in the down position to sit on.

The shower bench can be quickly lifted and folded away to suit family members who stand to shower.

Roll-in flooring of the shower makes the use of shower chairs and transfers from wheelchairs a breeze. This is the simple removal of the lip between the bathroom floor and the shower floor.

Replacing the shower door with a curtain allows for flexibility in space when transferring and bathing.

Adjustable hand held showers and temperature controlled, easy turn dial faucets are priceless features when it comes to ease!

The height of the soap. Wire hangers and various sorts of soap and bottle holders can be suctioned to the shower wall at any height.

Push soap dispensers. Shampoo and Conditioner dispensers can be filled and refilled with shampoo and suctioned to the wall at any height. This item eliminates the need to handle a slippery shampoo bottle, flip the cap, pour it out and return the bottle to the shelf without rinsing the unused soap off the other hand. Some dispensers have places for three or more liquids for bathing.

Towel bar height. Simple, but handy. A lower towel hook or bar near the side of the shower makes drying off safer and faster when wet.
