Review on πŸ›€ Moen R8736D3GBN Ultima 36-Inch Brushed Nickel Designer Bathroom Grab Bar: Enhanced Safety with Curl Grip by Michael Bressler

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very good outdoor handrail

This is a good handrail and due to the ribbed finger grooves is better used when used at an angle (mounted on a slope) than smooth. We love it. Regards, Installation: Discard the supplied screws as they are substandard and the metal will not stand up to being screwed into an old stud. Go to a hardware store and buy some 2 1/2 inch or 3 inch outside deck screws along with a suitable screwdriver. Pre-drill a pilot hole and temporarily fasten with short self-tapping screws to check elevation and pitch. If it fits and you know where the studs are, then install it permanently. If the right side bezel won't snap, use some clear RTV or Silastic under its edge to hold it in place. Remember that a 36" center handrail is less strong than shorter handrails. Use it to balance and catch yourself. If you need to squeeze it hard, grab it towards the end. Should last a lifetime.

Pros
  • This is great
