Bobrick B-5181 Reversible Solid Phenolic Folding Shower Seat
OPERATION:
Shower seat folds up against wall when not in use. The spring at the top of the baseplate holds seat in upright position until released by pulling the top of the seat away from the wall. Mounting flanges and guide bracket allow for varying mounting heights and leave the floor clear for easy cleaning. Nonporous solid phenolic seat has slots to permit water to drain, does not splinter or require oiling, and will not support growth of bacteria. Slotless round-head carriage bolts and acorn nuts provide additional safety to user. Bobrick shower seats, when properly installed, have sufficient strength to support 360 lbs., (163 kg) complying with accessible design guidelines (including ADAAG in the U.S.A.).
INSTALLATION:
Installation to Wall. Secure unit to wall at points indicated by an S, with the two mounting flanges located at top and the baseplate and guide bracket below. The bottom of the support tube must be positioned within the baseplate and guide bracket before they are secured to wall. Mounting height of shower seat must comply with local building codes.
