Providing safety, comfort, and accessibility for mobility-challenged individuals, the elderly, and post-surgery or injury patients, shower benches are a must-have accessory for any bath space.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"md-end-block md-p\"><span class=\"md-plain\">As a result, one of the most common questions asked by facility managers, architects, and medical device distributors and dealers is <\/span><span class=\"md-pair-s\"><strong><span class=\"md-plain\">\u201cHow high is a shower bench supposed to be?\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p><p class=\"md-end-block md-p\"><span class=\"md-plain\">Ensuring shower benches are at the correct height is important not only for user safety and comfort but also for compliance with relevant standards and certifications and ultimately, marketability. This definitive buying guide will answer that question and explore related standards and user needs, best practices for shower bench installation, and how distributors and dealers can provide superior products that meet and exceed international regulations and client expectations.<\/span><\/p><div class=\"md-hr md-end-block\" tabindex=\"-1\"><hr \/><\/div><h2 class=\"md-end-block md-heading\"><span class=\"md-plain\">All About Shower Bench Height: Why it Matters<\/span><\/h2><h3 class=\"md-end-block md-heading\"><span class=\"md-plain\">1. Safety and Accessibility <\/span><\/h3><p class=\"md-end-block md-p\"><span class=\"md-plain\">In practical terms, shower benches too low to the ground can be a challenge to get out of and increase the risk of slips and falls, while benches too high up may be uncomfortable and unsafe for smaller users or those with limited leg strength.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"md-end-block md-p\"><span class=\"md-plain\">The correct height allows users to transfer safely and with stability and confidence and bathe with dignity.<\/span><\/p><h3 class=\"md-end-block md-heading\"><span class=\"md-plain\">2. Compliance with Global Standards <\/span><\/h3><p class=\"md-end-block md-p\"><span class=\"md-plain\">Organizations like the <\/span><span class=\"md-pair-s\"><strong><span class=\"md-plain\">Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)<\/span><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"md-plain\"> in the U.S. as well as European (EN 12182), Australian (AS 1428.1), and Canadian (CSA B651) guidelines have published their recommended height ranges and other critical requirements for shower benches and seats.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"md-end-block md-p\"><span class=\"md-plain\">Regulations are not only necessary to ensure safety and liability compliance in hospital, nursing home, hotel, and public facility installations but also a primary buying factor.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"md-end-block md-p\"><span class=\"md-plain\">Clients look for ADA\/ISO compliant products as a mark of quality and reliability when sourcing medical and care products.<\/span><\/p><h3 class=\"md-end-block md-heading\"><span class=\"md-plain\">3. Market Appeal and Versatility <\/span><\/h3><p class=\"md-end-block md-p\"><span class=\"md-plain\">Facilities must accommodate a wide range of clients. A shower bench of a standardized height or with adjustable height options is more usable and increases market potential for elderly users, patients with disabilities, bariatric users, or even pediatric patients.<\/span><\/p><div class=\"md-hr md-end-block\" tabindex=\"-1\"><hr \/><\/div><h2 class=\"md-end-block md-heading\"><span class=\"md-plain\">How High Is a Shower Bench? \u2013 Standards and Recommendations Explained <\/span><\/h2><h3 class=\"md-end-block md-heading\"><span class=\"md-plain\">ADA and International Standards <\/span><\/h3><p class=\"md-end-block md-p\"><span class=\"md-plain\">The <\/span><span class=\"md-pair-s\"><strong><span class=\"md-plain\">ADA Standards for Accessible Design<\/span><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"md-plain\"> have been in effect for some time and adopted or referenced in many countries around the world.
