Grab Bars 

Bathroom & Home Safety Grab Bar Installation

Grab bars provide essential support in bathrooms and other areas of the home where slips and falls are most likely to occur. Professionally installed grab bars improve safety, stability, and confidence for individuals aging in place, recovering from injury, or managing balance or mobility challenges. Four Corners Mobility installs residential grab bars throughout Southeast Wisconsin, customized for each home and user.
 

What Are Grab Bars?

Grab bars are permanently mounted safety supports designed to assist with standing, sitting, and balance. Commonly installed near toilets, showers, tubs, and entry points, grab bars reduce fall risk by providing a secure handhold exactly where it’s needed most.

Unlike temporary suction devices, professionally installed grab bars are anchored into wall structure for long-term safety and reliability.
 

Who Benefits From Grab Bars?

Grab bars are ideal for:

• Older adults aging in place

• Individuals recovering from surgery or injury

• People with balance issues, weakness, or limited mobility

• Veterans transitioning home after hospitalization

• Anyone seeking proactive fall prevention

Grab bars support independence while reducing the risk of injury in high-risk areas like bathrooms.
 

Where Grab Bars Are Commonly Installed?

• Showers and walk-in showers

• Bathtubs

• Near toilets

• Bathroom entrances

• Hallways or stair transitions

• Bedrooms and transfer areas

Placement is customized based on the user’s height, strength, and mobility needs.
 

Benefits of Professional Grab Bar Installation?

• Proper height and positioning for safety

• Secure mounting into studs or structural blocking

• ADA-inspired placement principles when appropriate

• Clean, finished appearance

• Long-term reliability versus temporary solutions

Correct placement matters just as much as the grab bar itself.
 

Grab Bars vs. Other Bathroom Modifications

Grab bars are often the first and most effective step in improving home safety. In some cases, additional solutions such as walk-in showers, toilet risers, or railings may also be recommended depending on mobility needs and fall risk.
