Foldable Seat with Leg for Bathrooms and Showers Satin Stainless Steel

The folding seat with leg for bathrooms and showers from Genwec, reference GW11 24 04 01, is designed to offer maximum safety and comfort in accessible bathrooms. This seat, made entirely of AISI304 stainless steel, is strong, durable and suitable to support a static and dynamic load of up to 227 kg (500 lb), making it an ideal choice for environments where safety and easy access are paramount.

Design and Structure

The seat is composed of a solid tubular structure of stainless steel with a 32 mm diameter and 1.5 mm thickness, ensuring long-term durability. The foldable design allows the seat to fold against the wall when not in use, optimising space in the bathroom or shower. This makes it perfect for accessible showers in private residences, hospitals, clinics, or public facilities, where secure and functional equipment is essential.

In addition to the main structure, this model features a foldable stainless steel leg that provides greater stability when the seat is in use. The leg, also made of AISI304 stainless steel, is equipped with a plastic tip at the bottom, ensuring safe contact with the floor and preventing possible slipping, as well as protecting the floor covering.

Seat Surface

The sitting surface is formed by four stainless steel slats measuring 50x15 mm and 1.5 mm thick, which are welded to the structure using a TIG welding process. This welding method ensures a strong and durable joint, providing a robust and safe seat for daily use. The satin stainless finish of the set gives a modern and elegant appearance, as well as offering great resistance to corrosion, making maintenance easy and ensuring a long lifespan, even in humid environments such as showers and bathrooms.

Functionality and Safety

The seat's folding system is designed to be safe and easy to use. Two supports with AISI304 stainless steel brackets of 3 mm thickness attach the seat to the wall and incorporate a pivot axis that allows the seat to fold upwards when not in use. Thanks to this mechanism, the seat remains firmly in a vertical position, occupying minimal space in the bathroom or shower.

For installation, the seat includes 6 hex head screws in AISI304 stainless steel measuring 8 x 70 mm and 6 nylon plugs measuring 10 x 50 mm, ensuring a solid and stable attachment to the wall. Under these conditions, the seat is capable of supporting a maximum load of 227 kg, making it suitable for users of different weights and guaranteeing total safety in its use.
