A: There is a holder that comes with the grab bar that attaches to the wall to hold the grab bar so it won't free fall. So, the bar fits tight to the wall.

A: No
by|Feb 18, 2019
A: Yes, I use mega rolls on mine. If the roll is distorted you may have some contact on the bar but nothing that will prohibit use of the roll.
by|Feb 15, 2019
A: No, it will not hold a massive commercial roll. I would say maximum roll size would be 7" outside diameter

Q:Regarding your "flip up" grab bar Moen model R8962FD, can the connecting pin be taken out (& how), so as to remove the bar from the wall bracket when it won't be used for an extended period? In other words, can you separate the bar from the wall bracket (& how) while the wall bracket is mounted to the wall, so that you can store the bar out of the way? Thank you for a response.

A: No and it works great. I don't need it to fold against the wall. I have plenty of room to walk around it to bathe my Dad once it is folded up.
by|May 5, 2023
A: No. However, It comes with a wall mounted clamp that holds it up. We got it for my husband and it does not get in the way when folded up.
