WHY THIS MATTERS
A GRAB BAR IS ONLY SAFE IF IT'S INSTALLED RIGHT.
Most grab bars aren't installed by grab bar specialists. They're installed by whoever had time that week. And when they fail, people get hurt — often the exact people the bar was supposed to protect.

OLDER ADULTS FALL EACH YEAR
Falls are the leading cause of injury and injury death for adults over 65. Proper grab bars can dramatically reduce that risk.

THE FORCE A GRAB BAR MUST HOLD
ADA standards require grab bars to withstand 250 pounds of force. A bar anchored incorrectly — into drywall alone, with the wrong hardware — can rip out on first use.

AVERAGE COST OF A FALL
A single fall-related hospitalization averages over $30,000 in medical costs. One properly-installed grab bar costs a fraction of that — and can prevent the fall entirely.
WHAT "GBIAA CERTIFIED" MEANS
NOT EVERY HANDYMAN IS A GRAB BAR INSTALLER.
GBIAA is the first national certification program built specifically for residential grab bar installers. Our certified members have been trained, tested, and vetted on the work that actually keeps people safe.

✓ Tested with a comprehensive exam covering installation, wall assessment, and product standards.
✓ Vetted for a commitment to the GBIAA code of practice.
✓ Supported by ongoing expert access so they stay sharp on the job.
From Our Co-founder
Why we built this
I've installed over 1,000 grab bars in 20 years and I've never had one fail — because I was trained to do the work right. But I've been called in to fix plenty that other people installed wrong. Wall construction, anchoring methods, load-bearing technique — this isn't something you can pick up on the job. It has to be taught. That's why we built GBIAA.
