Frequently Asked Questions
What's a toilet surround rail?
A frame that fits around your toilet with rails on both sides. Gives you something to hold when sitting and standing. Some include a raised seat.
Does it attach to the toilet?
Most are freestanding - they don't fix to the toilet or floor. The frame sits over the toilet and is weighted for stability.
Can I still clean around it?
Yes - freestanding frames lift away for cleaning. Some models fold too. We advise on what suits your bathroom.
Is it better than wall rails?
Different solution - surrounds give support both sides without drilling walls. Good if walls are unsuitable for rails or you want mobility.
