Frequently Asked Questions

Why extend the light pull?

Standard bathroom light pulls are often too high to reach comfortably, especially from a seated position or wheelchair. An extended cord brings the switch to you.

Is this safe?

Yes - we're just extending the pull cord, not touching any electrics. The switch mechanism stays the same, just with a longer cord attached.

What length should it be?

Long enough to reach comfortably when seated or standing. We adjust to suit your height and needs.

Can you add a bigger toggle?

Yes - larger toggles are easier to find and grip. We can fit one that's easier to hold.
