A grab bar includes a front facing side and a wall facing side that is opposite from the front facing side. The grab bar is attached to a wall structure with at least one mounting assembly at the wall facing side. A removable decorative insert is supported by the front facing side. The removable decorative insert is easily removed and replaced by other decorative inserts as needed without having to remove the grab bar from the wall structure.

A grab bar is attached to a wall with at least one anchor assembly. The anchor assembly can be removed and repeatedly used as needed. The anchor assembly includes a vertical support beam, a flange arm assembly having a base portion and an arm portion, and a spring. The spring is attached to the vertical support beam and cooperates with the arm portion to hold the flange arm assembly in place during installation. The base portion of the flange arm assembly has a flange that fits against a wall surface of the wall structure, and the arm portion is received within a slot formed within the vertical support beam. The flange prevents the flange arm assembly from falling behind the wall structure.

A grab bar body is configured to have an overall shape that is defined by an inner peripheral surface and an outer peripheral surface. The grab bar body defines an open center space that is entirely bounded by the inner peripheral surface. In one example, the grab bar body has an overall shape that corresponds to an oval shape, with the open center space having a corresponding oval shape.

An adjustable leg for a device includes first and second legs telescopically received relative to one another. The second leg has multiple adjustment holes. An externally located lever is supported relative to the first leg. The lever cooperates with a detent received in one of the adjustment holes in a latched position in which the first and second legs are fixed relative to one another. The lever includes an area spaced from the detent that is rotatable about a pivot from the latch position to an unlatched position in which the detent is disposed outside one of the adjustment holes. In the unlatched position, movement of the first and second legs in an axial direction relative to one another is permitted.

A family of reversible hinges includes a strap hinge, a tee-hinge and a screw hook hinge. Each of the strap hinge, tee-hinge and screw hinge includes a universal strap leaf, a secondary strap leaf, a removable hinge pin and at least one bearing. The universal strap leaf is interchangeable between each of the strap hinge, the tee-hinge and the screw hook hinge, creating commonality amongst the family of reversible hinges, thereby reducing tooling costs and inventory levels associated with the family of reversible hinges. Further, the at least one bearing is manufactured from an acetal material to reduce hinge noise and prevent rust-lock.

An example pull assembly includes a knob that defines an axis and a cover moveable between an installed position adjacent the knob and an uninstalled position further from the knob than the installed position. A magnet holds the cover in the installed position. A cam extends from the cover, the knob, or both. The cam urges the cover from the installed position to the uninstalled position when the cover is rotated relative the knob about the axis.

Removable pull cover

A grab bar for attachment to a bathroom wall structure includes a body member that extends between first and second ends. The body member is defined by a non-circular cross-section.
