Product Location
Shower seats are only as strong as the wall to which they are fixed and the fixings that are used.
For different wall types you will need to ensure that you are using the correct type of fixing for the
material of the wall.
The addition of backboards on the outside of the wall or appropriate strengthening of internal
structures may be required to provide adequate wall strength.
NOTE: If the wall is made of lightweight thermal blocks, aerated hollow brickwork or prefabricated partitions even the most appropriate fixings may not be able to withstand the
loads which can be suddenly applied to shower seats.

Fitting Instruction
1. Identify the most appropriate position for the shower seat ensuring the product is at a comfortable height and distance for showering.
2. The product can be folded upwards for more convenient storage so please ensure there is
sufficient space above the fixing position to allow for this.
3. Place the shower seat in position on the wall and using the hole centres located on the wall
bracket as a template, mark the screw fixing positions on the wall surface ensuring the product is level.
4. Drill the holes in the marked positions using a masonry drill. If the product is to be fitted onto a
ceramic tiled wall, a ceramic drill bit should be used.
5. Insert wall plugs (if applicable) flush to the surface of the wall. If fitting to a tiled surface, the
wall plugs should be inserted below the surface of the tile to avoid cracking (See Fig.1).
6. Insert the screws through the holes located on the wall bracket and screw to the wall (See Fig.1).
7. Check the shower seat is securely fastened to the wall before use.
