Overview

A fold-down shower seat is a wall-mounted seat on hinged arms that folds up against the wall when not in use. It adds a place to sit without permanently taking shower space, and it shines in accessible and aging-in-place bathrooms.

Sizing & placement

The seat is 18 inches wide, 15 inches deep, and 10 inches tall. Its default mounting height puts the bottom edge 8 inches off the floor, so the seat top lands at about 18 inches, within the 17 to 19 inches common for accessible shower seats. You can change the mounting height.

Where it works

Accessible bathrooms, aging-in-place remodels, and walk-in showers; suits modern and spa-style designs.
