Review on 🚽 Moen R8718W Home Care Bathroom Safety Grab Bar: 18-Inch, Concealed Screws, Glacier Finish - Ensuring Optimal Safety in your Bathroom by Rodney Harris

Simple vertical mounting on a single stud. Gives stability to the bandage

The bandage was purchased to be placed next to the shower in the bathroom. This is a safe and comfortable grip area to use when dressing and undressing. It offers stability and security. It was easy to mount on a single vertical wall stud. The mounting flange for this device made this possible and easy. Using different hole patterns, I was able to drill three 2" screws into a rack at both the top and bottom of the bracket. The screws to the outside of the lug are angled slightly so they can actually cut into the more central part of the lug. Part of the lid closes them, although it is placed at an angle. With 6 screws in one bolt, it's strong and won't wobble. Nothing will make it fail (I hope). Although this was added as the primary dressing aid, within 3 months the member had a problem with dizziness and it definitely helped to have this in place. a toilet area to support the gong from a standing position to a sitting position and back to a standing position. I'm considering installing another one next to the shower in the guest room. The screws are made of durable stainless steel and are excellent. I had some trouble screwing them up. below as my drill bit was a bit worn. You really need to pre-drill holes in the studs that are slightly smaller than the diameter of the screws. The screws are larger in diameter and I think it's size "10". said they were superpowered kids. The price for the 12" handrail was great, under $14. Since both ends of this handrail were placed in the same post I only used screws. This unit does not come with a heavy duty security bracket which is used to support the RT when the ends are placed in drywall. Drywall mount must be purchased separately. If you are mounting horizontally I would suggest putting one end into a stud. The other can be supported with a secure attachment in drywall. This saves you the price of a single secure mount, which costs just over $11.

Pros
  • Works great for me
Cons
