Vital Ease — home modification and maintenance solutions

Grab rails made to fityour bathroom.

Rails built from sections that join together, so they fit around corners, windows, and awkward spaces. Measured and fitted across Victoria and New South Wales.

When a standard railwon’t fit.

Most bathrooms suit a standard grab rail. Some don’t. There may be a window in the way, a shower that is not square, or a toilet close to the wall.

A modular grab rail is made from sections that join together. It can turn corners and change direction, so the rail goes exactly where you need to hold.

We watch how you move around the room, then place each rail where your hand naturally reaches.

Shapes wecan make.

We work out the right shape with you on the free visit.

  • L-shaped, beside the toilet

    One part to push up from and one to pull up on. It is the pair most people use.

  • Straight runs

    Along a wall, beside a bath, or down a hallway, where you need support for longer.

  • T and U shapes, in the shower

    Something to hold at the entry, near the seat, and under the shower head.

  • Floor-to-ceiling poles

    For the middle of a room, beside a bed or a chair, where no wall is in reach.

  • Angled rails

    Set at the angle you naturally follow as you stand up.

  • Towel rails you can hold

    People grab towel rails anyway, but most aren’t fixed to take it. These are fixed as strongly as a grab rail.

It’s the fixingthat keeps you safe.

A rail is only as strong as what it is fixed to. Tiles and plasterboard alone won’t hold a fall. So we fix every rail into the wall frame, and add extra support inside the wall where needed.

We mark each position on the wall before we drill, so you can check it first. If a wall can’t hold a rail, we will tell you and suggest a floor-to-ceiling pole instead.

How itworks.

  1. Free home visit

    We see how you use the bathroom and mark where the rails should go. There is no charge.

  2. A clear, fixed quote

    You get a written price, set out so your plan manager, case manager, or occupational therapist can approve it easily.

  3. We check the wall

    We find solid fixing points, or add support inside the wall where needed. This is what makes a rail safe.

  4. Fitted, usually in a morning

    Most bathroom rails are fitted in a morning, and you can use the room the same day.

  5. Backed by warranty

    All work is done by licensed tradespeople and backed by the relevant warranties. If anything is not right, just call us.

Need astandard grab rail?

Most bathrooms only need a standard grab rail: straight, T-shaped, or a stabiliser. It is quicker and costs less to fit.

Questions

What people ask aboutmodular grab rails.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a rail “modular”?
It is put together from sections and joiners instead of being made as one piece. That lets the rail turn a corner, change height, or stop short of a window, so it suits rooms where a standard rail won’t fit.
Is a modular system funded the same way as a standard rail?
Yes. Both are usually a minor home modification, which is the simplest kind to get approved under the NDIS or a Home Care Package. We quote a modular rail as one item, so there is nothing extra for a plan manager to work through.
Can a rail be fixed to a tiled wall?
Yes. We drill through the tile and fix the rail into the solid frame behind it, not into the tile. If there is nothing solid where the rail needs to go, we add support inside the wall or use a floor-to-ceiling pole instead.
Who decides where the rails go?
You do, with us and your occupational therapist if you have one. We mark each position on the wall before we drill, so it can be checked and moved while that still costs nothing.
