OPERATION:
Shower seat can be folded up against the wall when not in use. The spring at the top of baseplate locks seat into this upright
position until released by pulling the top of seat away from wall. Support system with guide bracket allows varying mounting
heights and leaves floor clear for easier cleaning. Bobrick shower seats when properly installed, have sufficient strength to
support 360 lbs., (163 kg).
INSTALLATION:
Secure unit to wall at points indicated by an S, with the two mounting flanges located at top and the baseplate and guide bracket
below. The bottom of support bracket must be positioned between the baseplate and guide bracket before they are secured to
wall. Mounting height of shower seat must comply with local building codes.
For stud walls, provide concealed backing to comply with local building codes and secure with #14 x 2-1/2" (6.3 x 65mm)
stainless steel sheet-metal screws furnished by manufacturer.
For prefabricated shower stalls, provided adequate backing by the shower stall manufacturer. Secure with #14 x 2-1/2"
(6.3 x 65mm) stainless steel mounting screws furnished by manufacturer. Bobrick offers a mounting kit for installing shower
seats. For additional mounting kits please order 252-30. One mounting kit is required for each flange.
For masonry walls, provide fiber plugs or expansion shields for use with furnished screws, or provide 1/4" (6mm) toggle bolts
or expansion bolts.
INSTALL SAFETY PLATE TO WALL:
Safety Plate is to be mounted on wall near Shower Seat in order to properly advise users of the Seat's weight restrictions.
Correct installation of the Safety Plate will ensure that the Shower Seat meets A.N.S.I. Standards.
Permanently affi x Safety Plate to wall on either side of the Shower Seat at a minimum height of 30" (760mm). If mounted above

recommended, but double-sided tape on rear of Plate may be used for very smooth, non-porous surfaces.

must be fi rmly secured in order to support the loads for which they are intended. Consult and comply with local
building codes. To avoid potential injury, the building owner or maintenance personnel should remove the shower
seat from service if the shower seat is not adequately secured to the wall. Unit shall support static loads of up
