DESCRIPTION
Maxi-Grip handrails were developed with the help of the RNIB. The square profile improves slip resistance, whilst the unique co-polymer extrusion of Maxi-Grip Plus gives the corners of the rails a soft tactile quality for increased grip and comfort.
Maxi-Grip can support loads of up to 150kg*. The range also includes options for 90°, 60°, 45° or 30° angles plus internal and external corners.
Maxi-Grip Plus provides installers with the ability to provide customised installations with multi-packs of rails, brackets and angle brackets that can be trimmed to size and angled on-site.

Maxi-Grip Plus is a unique design that redefines what a grab rail 'should be', square!

WALL SUBSTRATE & FIXING GUIDE
Grab rails must be fixed into a substrate capable of sustaining the rated 150 kg load. Use the table below as a guide — always verify suitability on site before installation. Claims unverified: confirm with your fixing manufacturer's technical data.
| Wall Substrate | Recommended Fixing Method | Notes | Suggested Fixings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solid Block / Brick | Expanding masonry anchor or resin anchor into solid substrate | Ideal substrate — high pull-out strength. Minimum embedment depth per anchor manufacturer's spec. | Standard masonry anchor (M6 or M8 recommended) |
| Timber Stud / Noggin | Fix directly into stud or noggin with structural wood screws | Locate studs accurately before drilling. Min. 50 mm penetration into timber recommended. | No. 10 × 60 mm (min.) countersunk wood screws |
| Plasterboard / Cavity Wall | Cavity wall anchor — fix into the board where studs cannot be located, or use a backing plate behind the board | Board alone may not support full load. Cavity anchors improve pull-out resistance but a backing plate or noggin is strongly preferred for 150 kg rated rails. Verify anchor pull-out ratings for your specific board thickness. |
Cavity Wall Anchor ZP M5/M6 × 37 or 52 mm (Bag 10) Cavity Wall Zinc Speed Plug 4.5 × 35 mm |
| Tiled Wall / Dot-and-Dab | Drill through tile and adhesive bed into substrate behind; use cavity anchor where voids exist behind tile | Use a diamond tile drill bit to avoid cracking. Dot-and-dab boards may have voids — probe depth before specifying anchor length. Verify tile and board combined thickness before ordering anchors. |
Cavity Wall Anchor ZP M5/M6 × 37 or 52 mm (Bag 10) Cavity Wall Zinc Speed Plug 4.5 × 35 mm |
* 150 kg load capacity is subject to correct fixing into a suitable substrate. GKS Plumbing Supplies accepts no liability for installations where fixings or substrate are inadequate. Always follow the grab rail manufacturer's installation instructions and BS 8300 / relevant building regulations guidance.
