This wall-mounted reclining grab rail is a Revit family designed for accessible bathroom environments, featuring a hinged metal arm. The unit consists of a robust, wall-fixed mounting plate and a long, horizontal grab bar assembly that pivots on a hinged mechanism. Its design allows the rail to fold upwards when not in use, providing necessary flexibility in tight washroom layouts. The geometry is clean and functional, typical of institutional or domestic accessibility hardware. The structural arm is supported by a vertical brace, ensuring stability during use. Finished in a standard metallic tone, the component is lightweight and engineered for clear, efficient representation within BIM projects, focusing on the mechanical movement of the reclining feature.
The download is a 174 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.
As a Revit family, this item should be loaded into the project environment and hosted directly onto a vertical wall surface. Users can adjust the tilt angle parameters to demonstrate the folded or extended positions during design development or facility planning. Ensure the object is placed on the appropriate sub-category for sanitary hardware to maintain visibility control across different view templates. The model is lightweight, making it suitable for high-density documentation without impacting file performance or rendering speed.
