Bathroom Display #2
This bathroom display features a lavatory that can be easily raised, lowered,
and moved horizontally to accommodate persons of different heights and reaching
abilities. The lavatory, a shower chair, and grab bars on each side of the toilet
are mounted on an innovative wall-track system that allows both horizontal and
vertical adjustments.
The bathroom is designed to be especially convenient for persons who use wheelchairs. The large
shower area allows roll-in access to take a shower while seated in a waterproof wheelchair, thus
eliminating the need to transfer to and from a bath seat.
The overall size of the display covers a 7 x 7 floor area. The display is built
of modular components, easy for three people to carry and set up, with no section
larger than 4 feet wide by 7 feet tall. All components will fit in a large van.
The display requires two electrical outlets, but no water hookups. The display
would be ideal for a homeshow exhibit and can be used alone, or as a companion
to Bathroom Display Number One.
