The Genwec 800 mm foldable support bar with toilet roll holder, reference GW11 07 03 00, is a functional and robust solution designed to ensure safety and comfort in accessible bathrooms, especially adapted for individuals with reduced mobility. Made from high-strength carbon steel and featuring a patented progressive brake system, this foldable bar is ideal for installation in environments requiring safe and reliable accessibility. With its corrosion-resistant white epoxy finish and non-slip design, this product is durable and aesthetically suitable for any bathroom.
The bar is constructed from carbon steel tubing with a 32 mm diameter and a thickness of 1.5 mm, ensuring exceptional strength and long-lasting performance. The steel used is corrosion-resistant, thanks to its anti-rust treatment and white epoxy-polyester paint coating with a 70 µm thickness, which not only enhances its durability against humid environmental conditions but also provides a clean and modern aesthetic. This finish ensures that the bar maintains its structural integrity and appearance over time, even in high-use environments such as public bathrooms or accessible facilities in commercial buildings.
One of the most notable features of this support bar is its incorporated progressive brake system, which allows the bar to be folded upwards in a controlled and safe manner. This system, patented by Genwec, prevents the bar from dropping abruptly when lifted or lowered, ensuring user safety at all times. The 3 mm thick carbon steel hinge provides firm and stable support, ensuring the bar can withstand static and dynamic loads of up to 120 kg without compromising its functionality.
The bar features a U-shaped design, with an intermediate crossbar that includes an integrated toilet roll holder, making it even more practical for use in adapted bathrooms. This additional support allows easy access to toilet paper without the need to install a separate holder, optimising space and enhancing the functionality of the bathroom environment.
The installation of this foldable bar is achieved via a 3 mm thick carbon steel plate with six holes to securely anchor it to the wall using nylon plugs and stainless steel screws. This structure ensures robust and stable attachment to brick factory walls. Additionally, the bar complies with the American ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) standards, which set accessibility requirements for individuals with disabilities, making it a suitable option for facilities that must meet international accessibility regulations.
This foldable support bar is ideal for installation in adapted bathrooms for individuals with reduced mobility, both in residential settings and public spaces, hospitals, care homes, hotels, or shopping centres. Thanks to its easy folding and progressive brake system, it provides safe and reliable support for the user, enhancing accessibility and autonomy in bathroom use.
