AKW Onyx Shower Seat (Adjustable Leg) with Back and Arms - White

This heavy-duty, height-adjustable shower seat provides a comprehensive support system for users who require maximum stability and a higher weight capacity. By combining wall-mounted security with a structural support leg, it solves the challenge of providing safe, comfortable seating for larger users or those with significant mobility restrictions. It is an essential addition to any accessible bathroom or wet room where safety and modern design are equally prioritised.

Benefits

• Height Adjustable Support Leg > Enhanced Load Bearing: The integrated leg transfers weight directly to the floor, increasing the safe working load to 200kg (31.5 stone) and providing extra reassurance for bariatric users.
• Independent Folding Arms > Safe Lateral Transfers: Both arms fold upwards independently, allowing wheelchair users to perform side-transfers easily or giving standing users extra room when the seat is not in use.
• Ergonomic Backrest and Padded Seat > Superior Comfort: The contoured surfaces support the natural curve of the spine and provide a non-slip base, reducing fatigue during longer showering sessions and improving overall posture.

Product Overview

The Onyx Adjustable Leg Shower Seat represents the pinnacle of inclusive bathroom design, balancing high-capacity performance with a sleek, contemporary aesthetic. Unlike standard plastic stools, this unit features a die-cast aluminium frame finished in polished chrome, paired with a durable white seat that resists staining and wear. The addition of the support leg makes this model particularly suitable for installations where wall strength alone may be a concern, as it distributes the user's weight more effectively across the floor and wall.

The seat is designed for versatility in various showering environments, from residential wet rooms to commercial care settings. Its slim profile when folded ensures the shower remains accessible for multi-user households. The materials are selected for their hygiene properties, featuring smooth surfaces that are easy to sanitise. With its wide seating area and robust armrests, it provides a stable "push-off" point, aiding those with limited lower-limb strength to stand up safely after washing.

FAQs

What is the benefit of the support leg compared to a standard wall-mounted seat? The support leg significantly increases the weight capacity of the seat to 200kg. It also provides peace of mind by reducing the stress placed on the wall fixings, making it a safer choice for users who require a more substantial and rigid seating platform.

Can the seat height be adjusted after it has been installed? The support leg allows for fine-tuning the height during the installation process to suit the user's requirements. Once fixed to the wall, the height remains set, but the leg can be adjusted slightly to ensure it makes firm contact with the floor.

Is this seat suitable for use in a commercial care home environment? Yes. The Onyx range is built to professional standards, featuring high-quality materials and a robust folding mechanism that can withstand frequent daily use in both domestic and heavy-duty healthcare environments.
