Hey there! Welcome to Accessibility Minute, your weekly look at Assistive Technology, those clever tools and devices designed to help people who have difficulties with vision, mobility, hearing or other special needs!
If you’re looking for a quick, toolless way to increase shower accessibility, the AmeriLuck Suction Shower Grab Bars are one available option! According to AmeriLuck’s description, their suction grab bars are “an easy and safe solution for seniors looking for extra support in the shower.” Just as the name suggests, they suction directly onto your shower wall.
Unlike other suction grab bars available, the AmeriLuck suction bars feature suction safety indicators. The indicators turn green when the bar is good to grab, or red if you need to reinstall it.
Other features include:
- Grippy rubber discs on the grab bars suction directly onto your shower
- Make sure there are no textures on shower wall first
- Works on flat, non-porous surfaces
- Great for individuals who travel since they can be used on-the-go!

Great Information. I am interested in helping seniors. One way is to help them with is safety in the bathroom, such as grab bars. Are there any concerns that would prohibit a senior from using your ideas? I enjoyed your post and will be coming back. Be safe.
