The door assembly can include a hinge coupled with the U-shaped step saddle such that the door assembly can be transitioned between an open position and a closed position. The door assembly can include a catch and a latch to secure the door in the closed position.

Bathtub door systems and methods

A bathtub insert can include a frame, a door movably coupled with the frame and movable with respect to the frame between an opened position and a closed position, an elongate latch coupled with the door, a catch coupled with the frame, and a support structure, the support structure being coupled to the frame.

In accordance with one embodiment, a method is disclosed including cutting an opening in a sidewall of a bathtub and providing an overlay to cover the bathtub. The overlay can include an assistance feature such a tread, door, or capsule.

Bathtub overlay

In accordance with one embodiment, a method is disclosed including providing a first opening in a sidewall of a bathtub, the sidewall including a top wall, an inner wall, and a outer wall, where the first opening extends along a length of the sidewall and has a depth extending generally downward from the top wall of the sidewall. The method further includes providing an overlay, the overlay including a body configured to receive at least a portion of the bathtub, wherein the body defines a channel and a second opening and positioning the overlay such that the overlay substantially covers the top wall of the sidewall and the sidewall is positioned within the channel defined by the body of the overlay, where the first opening is aligned with the second opening. The overlay can include at least one assistance feature. The assistance feature may include, for example, a seat, a grab bar, or a handrail.

A bathtub insert is configured for retrofit installation into a bathtub. The bathtub insert includes a frame and a door. The frame includes a step-plate and a pair of end pillars. The door is movably coupled with the frame and movable with respect to the frame between an opened position and a closed position.

Bathtub insert for retrofit installation

A device and method for providing selective concealment and access to items stored on an overhead part of a retail shelving system. The device includes one or more mounting posts attachable to the retail shelving system and one or more panel support units. The mounting posts further include one or more substantially vertical channels. The panel support unit is engaged with the mounting posts and extends above the retail shelving system. The panel support unit is selectively moveable between an open configuration and a closed configuration such that when in the open configuration the panel support unit is displaced to provide access to the items stored on the overhead part of the retail shelving system, and when in the closed configuration the panel support unit conceals the items stored on the overhead part of the retail shelving system.
