NOTE:
For Maximum Safety and to meet ADA Requirements, Grab Bars should be Installed Horizontally 33-36” from the floor.
Before You Install:
• Verify the length of the grab bar by measuring from the inside of one flange to the outside of the other.
• To ensure adequate clearance, a stud finder should be used to verify there are no studs within the area
where the WINGITS
®
will be installed.
Make sure that there is at least 1.5” away from the edge of the stud. If concerned, drill a pilot hole and insert a piece of wire in
the shape of an “L” - twirl the wire to make sure there is nothing in the way.
