Hope it helps.

See my multiple posts in the Grab Bars Needed in Shower thread linked above. I finally went with Mike Scott Plumbing which I felt did the most secure installation.

I don't recall the cost, but it was worth it to me to be very secure. A friend, no longer in the area, repaired and repainted the wall where the installer cut out to put in added support for the bar.

I would never consider the suction cup type bars.

Be safe.
