The Genwec foldable support bar of 800 mm with toilet paper holder, reference GW11 07 03 00, is a functional and robust solution designed to ensure safety and comfort in accessible bathrooms, especially adapted for people with reduced mobility. Made of high-strength carbon steel and featuring a patented progressive brake system, this foldable bar is ideal for installation in environments that require safe and reliable accessibility. With its white epoxy finish, resistant to corrosion, and a non-slip design, this product is durable and aesthetically suitable for any bathroom.
The bar is constructed with carbon steel tube of 32 mm diameter and a thickness of 1.5 mm, ensuring exceptional strength and a long service life. The steel used is corrosion-resistant, thanks to the anti-oxidant treatment and its coating in white epoxy-polyester paint of 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 restrooms or accessible facilities in commercial buildings.
One of the standout features of this support bar is its incorporated progressive brake system, which allows the bar to be folded up 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 a firm and stable hold, ensuring that the bar can support static and dynamic loads of up to 120 kg without compromising its functionality.
The bar features a "U" shaped design, with a middle crossbar that includes an integrated toilet paper 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, optimizing space and improving the functionality of the bathroom environment.
The installation of this foldable bar is done using a 3 mm thick carbon steel plate with six holes to anchor it firmly to the wall using nylon anchors and stainless steel screws. This structure ensures a robust and stable hold on brick walls. Additionally, the bar complies with the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) standards, which establish accessibility requirements for people with disabilities, making it a suitable option for installations that must meet international accessibility regulations.
This foldable support bar is ideal for installation in bathrooms adapted for people with reduced mobility, both in residential environments and in public spaces, hospitals, nursing homes, hotels, or shopping centers. Thanks to its easy folding and progressive brake system, it provides safe and reliable support to the user, improving accessibility and autonomy in bathroom use.
