AKW Helps Make Kitchens Safer Thanks to New Grab-a-Rail

AKW Helps Make Kitchens Safer Thanks to New Grab-a-Rail

AKW, a leading provider of bathroom accessibility solutions, has begun production of Grab-a-RailTM, an easy and quick to install solution that will help to make kitchens safer to move around and more accessible. The strong counter-level grab rail, developed by Steve Michael, Director of Senior Homes Solutions, has been designed to give users increased independence and reduce their risk of falls when navigating the kitchen space. It will be available for purchase for use in AKW kitchens or for any other retrofit counter installations from the second half of 2023.

Grab-a-Rail is initially available in white from AKW and is available in 1000mm and 600mm lengths. It has eight fixing points, ensuring that when it is installed under the countertop it is strong enough to support up to 15.5 stone (100 kg) of downward pressure, as validated by University of Birmingham testsi. Designed to be installed on cupboard and drawer units, Grab-a-Rail can be retrofitted to most kitchen countertops, however tests with granite surfaces are still ongoing.

Steve Michael, Director of Senior Homes Solutions, says: "As a home adaptation specialist my aim is to promote safe day-to-day living. The Grab-a-Rail design idea came to me following a training course I was attending at a Parkinson's centre. I realised the gap in provision for helping those with mobility, ageing and health issues, to navigate around their kitchens more safely. I then undertook months of product development and testing to create the Grab-a-Rail design. The end result is a safety rail that can be fitted within an hour and works in most kitchens."

Stuart Reynolds, UK Marketing & Product Management Director at AKW, comments: "Our company strapline is 'Life Made Better', so when Steve approached us with his design and test results from the University of Birmingham, we were very interested. The kitchen is a notoriously difficult space to move around for those with mobility or visual impairments and this simple, easy to install solution will make life better for many. Its price point has also been set to ensure it is viable for those applying for local council small works assistance grants."

AKW Extends Toilet Range to Meet Market Needs

September 2023

AKW Extends Toilet Range to Meet Market Needs

AKW, a leading provider of bathroom accessibility solutions, is pleased to announce the addition of two new toilets to its already extensive range. The height adjustable Rise & Fall WC delivers flexible toileting for users of different heights, ages and requirements and the Navlin Wall-Hung Pan has a minimalist, modern style for contemporary bathrooms. With the addition of the Rise & Fall WC and Navlin Wall-Hung Pan, AKW can meet even more end user's clinical toileting and aesthetic needs.

AKW's Rise & Fall WC has been designed with versatility in mind. It can be raised or lowered to suit individual user requirements, promoting toileting independence. The Rise & Fall WC is comprised of the ultra-minimalist designed Navlin Wall-Hung Pan, a soft-close toilet seat and the Rise & Fall Cistern Unit, which has a concealed cistern, fold up support arms and a built-in dual push button flush.

AKW Rise And Fall with Navlin Wall Hung Pan

The toilet pan can be lowered or raised using buttons on the right-hand arm of the unit, to a height between 424mm-624mm from the finished floor level to the top of the seat. The arms on the cistern unit fold-up for ease of access. They support up to 18.8st (120kg) each and can also be used to help users safely navigate around the bathroom.

Navlin Wall-Hung Pan

The Navlin Wall-Hung Pan features a rimless pan and direct flushing technique for increased hygiene.

Stuart Reynolds, Head of Product and Marketing at AKW comments: "Accessibility has never looked so good! With the introduction of the Navlin Wall-Hung Pan and the Rise & Fall WC users can choose a solution that meets their needs, whilst embracing an ultra-minimalist bathroom aesthetic. Also, both toilet solutions are compatible with the Navlin and Navlin Doc M wash basins, enabling the creation of complete bathroom suites. With the introduction of these two products, specifiers, installers and users now have even greater choice when it comes to choosing modern, discreet toileting solutions."
