Using this grab bar is easy. Just mount it in the desired location using the concealed anchors through the screw holes in the mounting flange. Then snap the cover over the flange to hide the screws. When using, hold onto the bar firmly for support. For maintenance, simply wipe it down with a mild soap and water solution regularly to keep the satin finish looking great. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the stainless steel surface. Make sure the mounting area is dry before installation to prevent rusting of the components.
