Grab Bar Installation in Altamonte Springs, FL
Three grab bars in an Altamonte Springs shower with swirled, marble-look wall panels: one along the back wall and two vertical bars for getting in and out.
What the customer needed
At the start of October 2025, an Altamonte Springs homeowner asked us for three grab bars in an alcove shower finished with swirled, marble-look wall panels: one to steady themselves while showering and two for stepping in and out. We work all over Altamonte Springs, from the condos around Cranes Roost Park to the established neighborhoods off State Road 436.
The finished install
1. Finished. The horizontal bar on the back wall, under the soap dish. 
2. Finished. The vertical bar at the shower opening, beside the door trim. 
3. Finished. Both vertical bars on the valve wall: one by the controls, one at the opening.
What we did
One horizontal bar runs across the back wall just below the soap dish, a place to rest a hand while standing under the water. On the valve wall, a vertical bar to the left of the shower controls gives a grip while adjusting the temperature, and a second vertical bar at the open end of the shower, right beside the door trim, is the first thing to grab on the way in and the last on the way out. We supplied the bars and mounted all three on the wall panels, to our install standard below.
Our install standard
- Every bar secured into studs or blocking, or with fasteners rated for grab bar loads, so the installation holds 250 lb
- ADA guideline height (33 to 36 inches to the top of the bar) unless the customer’s needs differ
- Every hole sealed and every bar pull-tested before we leave
- Photos of the completed work, as proof for the customer and the warranty
