Review by C Chilcott Posted on 25/09/2018 10:30:05This product has been a tremendous result for the job it was purchased for. It has been fitted externally by the rear door, with the drop arm down it enables two 90 year olds gain access to their mobility scooters. The short arm is perfect. -
Rating 100%Very good support rails
Review by M Webster Posted on 03/07/2017 16:48:42I needed 2 of the folding support arms to install either side of a shower enclosure (externally) to provide support for my elderly parents to they can safely enter and exit a corner shower cubicle. Unlike many other models, these have a wide hinge which provides good lateral support and are spring loaded, which makes them easy to fold up and down - without risk of hurt or damage. It was good to have the shorter option also: as the normal length would not have worked in my application. They work extremely well! -
