PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Ponte Giulio Bella Faux Weathered Teak HPL Folding Shower Seat with Backrest (Model SKU: G56UHS12 / G56UHS12N1) is a commercial-grade, wall-mounted bather seating solution engineered specifically for residential retrofits, universal design developments, and commercial ADA-compliant restrooms. Featuring a 450-pound vertical static load capacity, this 20-inch wide bench combines 15 mm (1/2") thick High Pressure Laminate (HPL / Phenolic) seat and backrest slats with a 100% AISI 304 satin brushed stainless steel frame. The HPL slats reproduce the aesthetic texture of weathered teak wood while providing zero-maintenance, non-porous 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
- 450-Pound Vertical Static Load Rating: Engineered for structural rigidity, exceeding standard ADA load capacity requirements for safe bather seating and weight transfers.
- 15mm (1/2") Faux Weathered Teak HPL Slats: High Pressure Laminate seat and backrest slats deliver the visual warmth of weathered teak timber while offering a non-porous, chemical-resistant surface that requires no re-oiling or sealing.
- 100% AISI 304 Satin Stainless Steel Frame: The structural chassis and integrated backrest support are fabricated from 304-grade stainless steel with a brushed satin finish (N1) to prevent oxidation in wet environments.
- Pinch-Point-Free Safety Hinge Architecture: Designed 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.
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.
- Structural Anchoring Requirement: Wall mounting flanges must be anchored directly into solid wood studs or structural wall blocking capable of supporting the rated 450-pound vertical static load.
