Safeway Safety Step, LLC ('Safeway') recently introduced the Safeway Tub Door™, a product and installation method designed to add a water-tight sealable door to an existing bathtub and provide easier bathtub accessibility for hotel guests.
According to Chris Stafford, President of Safeway Safety Step, LLC, "We are excited at the rapid growth and acceptance of the Safeway line of bathtub modifications as an economical alternative to completely removing the existing bathtub. As baby boomers continue to age, the Safeway Step® and Safeway Tub Door™ will truly benefit a growing segment of travelers and help to prevent guest falls."
Installation includes cutting and removing a section of the existing tub and custom fitting the resulting opening with the Safeway Tub Door™. The Safeway Tub Door™ aids the senior, disabled individual and/or caregiver by removing their biggest barrier and providing easier access to the tub area.
The Safeway Tub Door™ is an important addition to Safeway's industry leading line of bath accessibility products and builds upon the versatility provided by the Company's initial core product, the Safeway Step®. The Safeway Step® retrofits the existing bathtub into a permanent walk-in shower and has been installed in thousands of units.
Benefits of Safeway's bathtub modifications include:
• Makes existing bathtub more accessible;
• Provides bathtub retrofit options with or without a door;
• Installed in just two to three hours;
• Reduces the possibility of guest falls; and,
• Saves thousands compared to tearing out and removing the existing bathtub to install more costly renovation options, such as a walk-in shower or bath.
Safeway's patented accessibility modifications have been installed for hospitality properties, personal homeowners, assisted living and other senior living residences, state and local social programs throughout the US and abroad. Safeway offers installation kits for hotel maintenance to install and also has a national network of professional installation partners.
