Wall Mounted Folding Shower Seat — Wooden, Height Adjustable | Gilani Engineering

Description

The Height Adjustable Wood Bath Seat is a wall mounted folding shower seat that combines safety, comfort and timeless natural design. Built for elderly users, people with disability and anyone with limited mobility, this premium wall mounted shower seat provides secure, stable seated support while adding warmth and natural elegance to the bathroom. It is one of the only timber alternatives to the plastic and stainless-steel folding shower seats found in most Australian homes, aged care facilities and hospitals.

The seat is made from 100% heartwood Mongolian pine on a strong aluminium support frame, pairing real timber comfort with the durability needed for a wet bathroom. The pine is finished with natural oils and a nano-coating, making it resistant to water, mould and daily wear for reliable long-term use. A tool-free height adjustment system lets users set the seat to a comfortable position for different body types and accessibility needs, and the frame is rated to support up to 150 kg.

When not in use, the seat folds flat against the wall to just 107 mm deep — a true space-saving shower seat for compact bathrooms, small ensuites and shared facilities. Its natural pine finish suits both traditional and modern interiors, making it a practical fold down shower seat for homes, aged care facilities and hospitals across Australia.

Maintenance

• Wipe regularly with warm water or a mild soap solution.

• Avoid chlorine-based, corrosive or abrasive cleaners to protect the finish.

Why Choose the Wood Bath Seat?

Most folding shower seats in Australia are plastic or bare stainless steel. The Height Adjustable Wood Bath Seat offers the same wall-mounted, space-saving function with the comfort and appearance of real timber. It delivers ergonomic seated support, durable wet-area materials and a slim 107 mm folded profile — designed with Australian homes, aged care facilities and hospitals in mind.
