Do You Install Grab Rails?
Yes, Unicare Health can supply and arrange the installation of grab rails as part of our home modifications and accessibility support services.
Grab rails are commonly installed in areas such as:
-
Bathrooms and toilets
-
Showers and bathtubs
-
Hallways and entrances
-
Bedside areas
-
Outdoor steps and pathways
Not Sure Which Grab Rails You Need?
If you are unsure which grab rails are best suited to your needs, we recommend booking a Showroom at Home visit or speaking with our team.
We can help you compare different rail types, lengths, colours, and mounting options based on your space and accessibility requirements.
How the Process Works
Assessment
A clinician or occupational therapist may assess the home and recommend suitable grab rail locations and styles based on the client’s needs.
With our Showroom at Home service, we can often attend the assessment alongside the therapist so suitable options can be discussed and viewed in the home during the appointment.
Quotation
We provide a quote for the supply and installation of the recommended grab rails.
Installation
Qualified installers complete the installation to ensure the rails are securely fitted and compliant with safety requirements.
How Long Does Installation Take?
We understand grab rails are a critical safety item, so installation requests are prioritised.
In most cases, installation is completed within 3 working days from order confirmation. Our team will confirm expected timeframes when your quote or order is processed.
Funding Options
Grab rail installations may be funded through:
-
NDIS
-
Support at Home
-
CHSP
-
Private funding
-
Insurance or other support programs
What Information Do We Need for a Grab Rail Installation?
The easiest way for us to support a grab rail installation is through a Showroom at Home visit, where our team can view the space, discuss options, assist the therapist or client with practical product suggestions, and place temporary markings on the wall for our installation team.
Many experienced therapists don't require a Showroom at Home visit, and that is fine, we will still arrange the installation. To help us arrange this, we need:
-
The installation address
-
Photos or sketches of the area where the rail is required with measurements
-
Any therapist recommendations, diagrams, or reports
-
Client or therapist contact details
-
Funding details, if applicable
If anything is unclear after the order is placed, our team will follow up with the client, therapist, or nominated contact before installation is arranged.
Installation Guarantee
Unicare Health provides a 5-year workmanship guarantee on all grab rail installations completed by our installers. This guarantee covers installation-related defects under normal intended use. Exclusions include misuse, accidental damage, corrosion, building movement, and modifications by third parties.
