Solution Based | ShowerGlyde Sliding Transfer Bench | SG1, SG2 and SG3 Models with 330 lb Capacity and Adjustable Fit
The ShowerGlyde SG1, SG2, and SG3 are a family of sliding transfer solutions designed to improve safety, comfort, and independence during bathing for individuals with limited mobility.
All three models use a secure rail-based sliding system that allows users to transfer smoothly in and out of the bathtub with reduced lifting, lowering fall risk, and less strain on caregivers.
Each model is built with durable, rust-resistant materials and includes key safety features such as a stable locking mechanism, supportive seating, and secure positioning for reliable everyday use.
What differentiates the three models is how they adapt to different bathroom layouts. The SG1 Sliding Transfer Bench is best for standard bathrooms with open space beside the tub, offering a straight sliding path and secure end-to-end locking.
The SG2 Tub Transfer Bench is designed for more complex layouts where a toilet is positioned next to the bathtub, featuring an extended rail system that allows sliding across both areas for uninterrupted access.
The SG3 Pivoting Shower Chair is ideal for compact bathrooms with limited clearance, using a shorter rail system combined with a pivoting seat that rotates for easier entry and positioning when a full sliding path is not possible.
Together, the ShowerGlyde series provides a flexible solution for different bathroom configurations while maintaining the same core focus: safe, controlled transfers and improved bathing independence.
