The Best Shower Grab Bars for Aging

Jan 24, 2024

A textured grip is key when ensuring a shower grab bar is as safe as possible. Because the surface of the bar can easily become slippery when it gets wet, a slip-resistant finish ensures an easy grip. This model by Moen is 24 inches long, though it also comes in a variety of longer and shorter lengths.

While the grab bar measures 24 inches in length, the total length when including flanges is 27.25 inches. When installed into studs, it can support 500 pounds of weight, though Moen also provides SecureMount anchors which are sold separately and allow users to install the bar into a wall without studs.
