Abstract
A grab bar includes a continuous support bar extending between a first end and a second end vertically spaced apart from the first end. The continuous support bar has a top section extending away from the first end, a bottom section extending away from the second end and angling upward toward the top section, and a bend formed between and connecting the top section and the bottom section. A brace member is coupled to and extends between the top section and the bottom section.

A grab bar comprising:
- a continuous support bar extending between a first end and a second end vertically spaced apart from the first end and having a triangular shape, the continuous support bar having:
- a top section extending away from the first end;
- a bottom section extending away from the second end and angling upward toward the top section, the bottom section including a first section extending away from the second end, a second section extending toward the first section, and a bottom bend formed between the first section and the second section;
- and
- a bend formed between and connecting the top section and the bottom section, wherein the second section extends away from the bend towards the first section;
- and
- a brace member coupled to and extending between the top section and the bottom section, the brace member being positioned proximate to the bottom bend of the bottom section.
