How The Solid Mount® Works
Originally developed under U.S. patent protection, The Solid Mount® remains the strongest grab bar mounting system designed specifically for fiberglass showers and tubs.
The system mounts directly to existing 2×4 wood studs and uses a 14-part structural design to achieve exceptional load distribution and holding power.
A proprietary high-strength composite material, exceeding 6,000 PSI, forms the core of the system and is critical to its performance in fiberglass applications.
Quick Installation Overview
-
Take a few simple measurements and make any necessary adjustments.
-
Install the threaded bracket directly into the existing 2×4 wood stud using a 5/16″ diameter lag bolt and a stainless-steel washer. Tighten until snug and secure.
-
Install the mounting cup, manufactured from our proprietary high-strength composite.
-
Apply a small bead of silicone sealant around the wall opening, then thread on the mounting plate. This step seals the shower wall and prevents moisture intrusion.
-
Repeat the same process for the second bracket.
-
Once both mounts are installed, position the grab bar and secure it to The Solid Mount® using the included fasteners, which are specifically designed for this application.
