AquaSense Steel Bath Safety Rail
The rail clamps to the wall of the bath, so the whole fit question is how thick that wall is. It is not a number anyone has written down for your bathroom.
Start here
Measure the thickness of your tub wall.
Not the height of it, and not the width of the tub. The thickness, straight across the top edge, at the spot where you would actually want the rail. It is the one number this product turns on.
- 1Open the tape and stand beside the tubYou are measuring the top edge, so you want to be looking down on it
- 2Lay the tape across the top of the wallFrom the outside face to the inside face, straight across the rim
- 3Take it where the rail will actually clampWherever your hand would naturally go to steady yourself, clear of the taps and the overflow
- 4Read it at the thickest pointSome rims are molded and change along their length, so take the widest part you find
- ✓Between 3 in and 7 inClamp range for model 785-350, measured across the top of the tub wall
Where you take the reading matters as much as the number. A bath rim is often thicker at the corners than along the straight run, and a tiled or boxed in tub adds whatever the tiling adds on top of the tub itself. Measure at the spot the rail will live and the reading is the one that counts.
iOne reading and the question is closed. Tub wall thickness does not change, so the number you take today is good for this rail and for anything else that clamps to the same edge.
After it is yours
Covered for as long as you own it.
Drive put a Limited Lifetime warranty on this rail, model 785-350. Here is the term exactly as they publish it, set against the model number rather than the product name.
- ✓Limited Lifetime, in Drive's own wordsPrinted on the warranty row against model 785-350
- ✓No end date to watchA lifetime term does not expire, so there is nothing to put in the calendar and no reminder to set
Drive publish the term and not the conditions behind it. We print the term exactly as it stands rather than paraphrase conditions nobody has written down.
iWorth keeping: your Care Made order confirmation. It carries the date and the model number, and a warranty written against a model number is looking for exactly that. Hold on to that email and there is nothing else for you to do.
