MoenLR8724D2CH Bathroom Safety 24-Inch Designer Stainless Steel Grab Bar with Concealed Screws, Chrome

We bought 2 of these grab bars and are very pleased with them. They look nice and are very sturdy. We had no problems with installation. One is placed vertically outside the shower and we use it all the time- it has been more helpful than we expected. The second one we placed diagonally on the back wall of the shower so that it can be reached if you have fallen- the only problem with this is that the finishing cap on the bottom tends to pop up because of the angle so that you have to push it back in place but that is not a big problem at all. I recommend this grab bar.

The media could not be loaded.  Our bathroom was remodeled recently. We didn’t want to replace the grab bar with the institutional-style one we had before. The Moen grab bar is perfect! It’s sturdy but attractive, and seamlessly blends in with the Kohler fixtures.If you’re extremely sensitive to small color differences, one caveat: The Moen grab bar’s brushed nickel color is a silver brushed stainless color. The photo in the listing shows a warm-tone brushed nickel (like the Kohler brushed nickel color) but in real life it’s a pure stainless steel color. The difference between the Moen color brushed nickel and the Kohler color brushed nickel is almost imperceptible. But if you think this will bother you, buy a Kohler grab bar.

excellent product, good quality, easy to install

Bought these for the shower. They look great, and as if they were always there. A good idea for seniors. They could save your life.

I bought this to use next to the tub/shower in one of our secondary bathrooms, so that while stepping over the tub rim when getting in or out there would be something to hold onto instead of just the weak towel bar or sliding shower door. The finish of the grab bar is brushed nickel rather than the normal plain stainless steel, so it matches the other finishes in the bathroom. The escutcheons on the ends are decorative and also help eliminate the institutional appearance of many grab bars. The bar itself is well designed, extremely strong, and the flanges allow for mounting screws in many postions to match whatever wall conditions you might have. After installation, no mounting screws are visible.I used a Moen "Securemount Anchor (SMA1000)" on one end of the grab bar, since it needed to be mounted on drywall with no stud or blocking behind it. It is a perfect solution when there is nothing solid to screw into. The lower end was screwed into existing blocking behind the wall. The overall mounting is so secure that I can literally hang off the grab bar.With the 24 inch grab bar mounted vertically and centered at about four feet, it can be conveniently reached and used by both children and adults. It simultaneously overcomes the hazards of a slippery tub, wet floor, and loose floor mat. The improvement in safety is dramatic with no real loss of aesthetics as the style of the grab bar is similar to a towel bar. I think a grab bar like this should be required in the building code for all tubs and showers.

The contractor that installed the grab bar said the installation went OK due to them adding extra blocking during the framing portion of the shower remodel. With that extra blocking, the grab bar sturdiness is off the charts. Also, the extra hardware package from Moes wasn't needed due to the extra blocking.

They are perfect and so secure on my wall, we were able toInstall them with a power screwdriver, to the studs inside the wall with the provided long wood screws. They are so sturdy and secure on my bathroom wall. I have purchased more for my garage wall. It’a good safety addition to my home.

good value at a reasonable price

Bought the first one to get a bathroom ready for my father-in-law. It has stood up well over the years so bought another for the other bathroom as we have taken over the house and plan on being here for awhile. Nice finish and solid. I put blocking between the studs for both bars, as the wall mounts are mounted 24" on center, you will miss one stud on a standard 16" on center stud, without blocking. The first bar I installed I cut the drywall and installed a block then re-drywalled. Allows 3 screws per mount so solid. I would buy the grab bar / towel bar by MOEN that comes with a plastic mount "secure mount anchor" to mount to a hollow part of the drywall, if you did not want to put blocking for one mount. However wood 2 x 6 blocking between studs is still the best method.

I use these for towel racks, doubles as grab bars...

I was so impressed with this grab bar that I ordered another one

Great strong grab bar. Easy to install. Best products are from Moen.

good
