The Ponte Giulio Prestigio Plus 65" Vertical Straight Grab Bar (Model SKU: G18UAS52) is a commercial-grade, floor-to-ceiling style wall-mounted support rail engineered specifically for vertical installation in luxury shower enclosures, universal design developments, healthcare facilities, and ADA-compliant restrooms.
