🏠 Moen SMA1005CH Home Securemount Chrome: Enhancing Safety and Style in Your Home Review

I've used many of these over the years and they work perfectly. They are definitely worth their price. Thoughtful design, brass thread inserts, stainless steel screws, silicone gasket - perfect. When used with the Moen railings they were designed for, you get a clean, finished look with no visible screws or gaskets. Some may wonder, is it better to screw the rods into the hairpin? Yes, as long as the pole is where you need the handrail (but try to find the pole behind ceramic tile laid on a…

I bought 8 of these for my house and 4 more for my mother in law's house. Very well done. Has given me the most flexibility when installing Moen handrails.

Having never seen such a design before, I asked our builder…

Tough, smart, but precision is required when used on both ends of the handlebar. The only thing you absolutely must have is a 1 1/4" hole saw bit. They're inexpensive, fit any bit, and tend to come in a variety of box sizes. I first got them when installing the Moen toilet paper / the rail used. because these brackets came with this item -- a no-brainer. I later bought a Moen Coordinating Handrail Bar to replace my existing traditional towel bar. I wanted this new bar to be installed in the…

This product works well and allows you to add handrails almost anywhere you shower or want bath wall. They come individually, not in a set of two, so you'll need two of these if both ends of the rail don't fit in the cleats. But please don't make the same mistake we did!
