Using this grab bar is easy. Just find a suitable location on the wall where you need support, then use the concealed anchors through the screw holes in the mounting flange to secure it firmly. When you need to get up or sit down, hold onto the bar for stability. As for maintenance, simply wipe it with a soft, damp cloth regularly to keep it clean. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they might scratch the satin finish of the stainless steel. Also, check the mounting periodically to make sure it remains tight and secure for safe use.
