This Folding Devon Deluxe Toilet Support Rail is a well designed toileting aid that has a number of different features to improve the user\'s toileting experience.The support arm can be raised and will remain in the vertical position with the locking mechanism securing it in place. The arm is then easily lifted to release from the lock, which activates the spring mechanism which in turn supports the weight of the rail as it lowers smoothly to the horizontal position providing the user with a strong rail to grip when lowering onto, or rising from the toilet. This shorter version of the standard rail only projects 21.5\" from the wall and is useful in toilets or bathrooms where space may be at a premium.Product SpecificationMaximum load weight is not the weight of the user but is the amount of downward force they are likely to exert when using this product.
