Ideal when space is limited
Handicare’s Short shower seat is an extremely secure and very compact wall mounted shower seat available in two variants with and without backrest and swivel armrests. Both versions feature the same seat with reduced seat depth making the shower seat ideal for locations where space is limited. The version with backrest and armrests is only 445 mm deep, while the version without backrest and armrests is only 375 mm deep.
The seat, which can be folded up after use, is 315 mm deep. The seat, as well as the backrest, is fitted with a strong textile covering, which is firmly attached round the frame and which adapts to the body temperature during use. The seat covering is flush with the frame, which facilitates sideways and standing transfers.
The ergonomically designed armrests offer comfortable support for the forearms while sitting and they are long enough to provide safe support also when sitting down on or getting up from the shower seat. The armrests can be folded up individually, e.g. to facilitate a sideways transfer. For users weighing more than 125 kg, and who require extra support while getting into and out of the seat, we recommend using Soft shower seat without armrests in combination with a Hinged arm support at each side.
Both variants of Handicare’s Short shower seat are very easy to install and, after installation, the fixing points are covered and concealed for a stylish look and to make the shower seat easy to keep clean.
