The ASI 3451 is a locking, swing up grab bar that measures 1-1/4 inches in diameter. Featuring a smooth finish, the grab bar portion of the unit is 29 inches long and 8-1/4 inches tall. The grab bars are crafted from 18-gauge stainless steel tubing that has an attractive satin finish to cut down on fingerprints, while still giving the unit an attractive gleam. The grab bar must be pulled downward into its horizontal position and remains securely stored against the wall in a folded, vertical position when not in use. A specialized tension control system prevents the bar from falling down or randomly dropping into position. The included mounting bracket is crafted out of durable 7-gauge stainless steel and features six predrilled holes for mounting the unit onto any hard surface. Once installed, the mounting hardware remains exposed for easy access for modifying or moving the grab bar unit.
