shower bench arms

Folding wall‑mount benches fold up against the wall to a slim profile—commonly within about 3.5" to 5" of the wall—freeing floor space. Swivel/tub chairs rotate 360° and can be fixed in multiple positions to keep the seat out of the way when not in use. Verify clearance requirements for your shower or tub layout before purchase.

Seat height varies by model: some folding wall‑mount benches list floor‑to‑seat heights around 17", while adjustable models may offer ranges roughly between 16" and 22". The tub swivel chair in these examples lists an adjustable floor‑to‑seat range of about 20–24". Confirm the exact height or adjustment increments for the specific product.

Several folding benches include a removable straight backrest for added support and easier cleaning. Seats commonly feature cutout slots to encourage drainage and prevent standing water. Check product details for backrest compatibility and how easily it detaches for cleaning.

Most folding benches are wall‑mount designs with prespaced 16" mounting centers to align with standard wood studs. There are also tub‑mounted swivel chairs designed to attach to bathtubs with adjustable mounting widths. Always confirm the required mounting hardware and substrate compatibility for your installation.

Folding benches often use teak or smooth phenolic seat surfaces, sometimes paired with arm pads. Tub swivel chairs use padded seat, backrest, and armrest cushions made from medical‑grade closed‑cell polyurethane that is slip‑ and water‑resistant. Check product listings for exact materials and care instructions.

Most listings indicate adult assembly is required and that tools are not provided with the product. One example—the rotating tub chair—describes tool‑less assembly in its product details. Review the product description to see which tools or hardware (if any) are included and what installation steps are needed.
