Toilet Safety Frames Buying Guide: What to Look for in Toilet Grab Bars

Choosing which toilet safety frame to get is an important decision. Quality toilet safety bars can protect the user and prevent injury. When looking for toilet assist bars, here are the most important factors to look out for.

Shape 

Decide on the shape of the toilet safety bars depending on the shape of your toilet. You can get standard toilet seat rails for a regular toilet, and a full frame for an elongated commode. 

Sturdiness

Stand-alone portable handicap toilet rails are more sturdy than toilet safety bars that can be bolted directly onto the toilet. For your safety, AvaCare Medical only offers the stand-alone portable toilet rails, which are the most durable and secure. 

Weight Support Capacity

Most standard toilet seat rails have a weight capacity of 300 pounds. Anyone who weighs under 300 pounds can use such toilet assist rails. If you need toilet seat safety rails that can hold more weight than that, then you can try a heavy duty toilet safety frame, which is designed for use by bariatric individuals. 

Comfort

To make life easier and more pleasant, try to find a bedside commode with padded armrests. This will also enable you to get a better grip when getting up and sitting down. Some toilet handle bars even feature a rack on the side to store newspapers or magazines in.

Height & Width Adjustment Capability

This is necessary if anyone else besides yourself plans on using the toilet seat rails. It allows for each individual to adjust the toilet support bars as needed. And even if you’re the only one who will be using them, if you are a bit tall, on the short side, or somewhat heavy, by getting adjustable toilet handrails you don’t have to worry that they’ll be too high or low, since you can adjust the height according to your needs. 

Standard toilet seat bars usually range between 18 and 24 inches in width. Be sure to check the width and height of the safety grab bars for toilets before purchasing. This will help you to ensure it will be suitable for you!

Composition

The most common options of material to choose for toilet arms are steel, plastic and aluminum. Toilets rails comprised of aluminum is usually the strongest and most long-lasting from all materials.

Toilet seat grab bars can either be used alone or in conjunction with a toilet seat riser.
