The Ponte Giulio Bella Spa Teak Folding Wood Shower Seat with Backrest (Model SKU: G56UHS13 / G56UHS13N1) is a commercial-grade, wall-mounted bather seating solution engineered specifically for residential retrofits, universal design developments, and commercial ADA-compliant restrooms. Featuring a 600-pound vertical static load capacity, this 20-inch wide bench combines 25 mm (1") thick solid African Okoume hardwood seat and backrest slats with a 100% AISI 304 satin brushed stainless steel frame. African Okoume is a sustainable, water-resistant timber treated with a protective finish for wet-room durability. The mounting flanges are engineered with a 16-inch center-on-center spacing for direct alignment with standard wall studs, folding to a compact 3-inch profile when stowed.

Key Performance & Construction Features

• 600-Pound Vertical Static Load Rating: Engineered for extreme structural rigidity, exceeding standard ADA load capacity requirements for safe bather seating and weight transfers.
• 25mm (1") Solid African Okoume Hardwood Slats: Crafted from natural Okoume timber with low thermal conductivity, providing a warm tactile grip compared to cold synthetic or metal surfaces in wet environments.
• 100% AISI 304 Satin Stainless Steel Frame: The structural chassis and backrest framework are fabricated from 304-grade stainless steel with a brushed satin finish (N1) to prevent oxidation in high-humidity areas.
• Pinch-Point-Free Safety Hinge Architecture: Built with enclosed pivot joints that eliminate mechanical finger pinch points during folding operations.
• 16" Center-on-Center Stud Alignment: Mounting flanges are spaced exactly 16 inches apart, permitting direct structural anchoring into standard 16-inch wall stud framing without custom backing modifications.
• Compact 3-Inch Stowed Profile: Rotates upward flat against the wall tile when not in use, projecting just 3 inches to maximize standing room inside the shower enclosure.
• Maintainable & Replaceable Components: Replacement wood slat assemblies for seat and backrest surfaces are available independently to extend fixture operating lifecycle.

Regulatory Compliance & Installation Notes

To ensure full ADA and building code compliance:

• ADA Compliance: When mounted securely into solid wood studs or structural wall blocking at the correct height, this shower seat meets federal ADA specifications for shower seating and load capacity.
