Topics: grab bar height stroke · where to install grab bars · OT grab bar placement · stud mounted grab bars · suction grab bar temporary

Grab bars are the most searched bathroom item after stroke — and the most misinstalled. Your OT measures based on your transfer: tub bench, roll-in shower, or standing pivot.

Install into blocking or studs after tile is set. Suction bars can fill gaps only on smooth tile and only as a short-term bridge.
