Folding seat with leg for bathrooms and showers satin stainless steel

The foldable 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 for supporting a static and dynamic load of up to 227 kg (500 lb), making it an ideal option for environments where safety and easy access are paramount.

Design and structure

The seat consists of a solid tubular structure of stainless steel with a 32 mm diameter and 1.5 mm thickness, ensuring long-term resistance. The foldable design allows the seat to be folded against the wall when not in use, optimizing space in the bathroom or shower. This makes it perfect for accessible showers in private residences, hospitals, clinics, or public facilities, where having safe and functional equipment is important.

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

Seat surface

The sitting surface is made up of 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 bond, providing a robust and safe seat for daily use. The satin stainless steel finish of the assembly gives it a modern and elegant appearance, as well as offering great resistance to corrosion, which facilitates maintenance and ensures a long lifespan, even in humid environments like showers and bathrooms.

Functionality and safety

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

For installation, the seat includes 6 hexagonal head screws made of 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 can support a maximum load of 227 kg, making it suitable for users of different weights and ensuring total safety in its use.
