With strong grab bars installed, older, disabled, or sick users can find a place to hold on to if they are unable to stand steadily on their feet. Using the services of a qualified plumber, the bars should be installed properly according to standards approved by quality assurance authorities. For instance, the bars should be parallel to the ground to avoid any chance of slipping. Other safety measures include placing anti-slip mats beside the tub to prevent slipping and installing a stepladder for getting in and out of the tub. Overall, the bars, knobs, and other fixtures should be of a high quality to ensure durability and functionality.
