Showering Benches

Mostly wall-mounted and able to be pushed up out of the way when not in use, the height adjustable benches may be controlled either manually or electrically with a hand-held remote, depending on the model chosen. This allows them to be lowered to a suitable height for side transfer from a wheelchair, and then raised to a comfortable and safe working height for the carer.

There are also fixed height benches available.

Adjustable Washbasins

For use in installations such as school hygiene rooms and Changing Places facilities, as well as home adaptations, Pressalit Care produces a range of brackets suited to both frequent and periodic use.

As specialists in providing bathroom and kitchen solutions for those with limited mobility, Pressalit Care's basin brackets have been designed for functionality and ease of use, allowing standing or seated users to choose the individual height they need to use a washbasin in comfort.

Where frequent adjustment is required - such as multi-user bathrooms in schools, hospitals, care homes or public places - gas assisted or electric brackets are recommended. Operated by means of a lever control or remote control, height adjustment of up to 300mm is achieved. Where height adjustment is required only periodically, the more cost effective manual option may be preferred.

Height adjustable basin brackets are being increasingly chosen for private home bathroom adaptations to give flexibility and independence to individual family members.

Toilet Support

An adjustable height toilet can be achieved with a toilet bracket, which allows the height to be changed either electrically or manually, for easier transfers to and from a wheelchair.

Strong and ergonomically designed toilet seats are also available in raised versions, giving up to 100 mm (4 inches) greater height, as well as forward slanting designs, which can be easier to stand up from with reduced mobility in hips and knees.

Good support arms provide sitting support and assist with transfers. As they are hinged, they can be pushed up against the wall when not required.

Bathroom Support

The horizontal track makes it possible to slide products along the wall, changing their position to achieve a different layout for the room.

The vertical track allows adjustment of the product's height.

By combining the horizontal and vertical tracks, maximum flexibility is achieved, for the benefit of both user and carer.

This unique tracking system allows rooms to be entirely reconfigured in minutes and removes the need for refurbishment and renovation should the user's needs change, or if new users start using the room. The flexibility of the tracking system means that products can be easily adapted to make more space, helping users and carers to move more freely within the room.
