The Bathtub Transfer Bench is a practical bathroom mobility aid designed to make getting into and out of the bath easier for people with reduced mobility. The bench allows the user to sit down before moving across the edge of the bathtub, reducing the need to step directly over the side of the bath.
Constructed from lightweight and durable aluminium alloy, this bath transfer bench provides supportive seating while remaining easy to position. Its height-adjustable design, from approximately 45 to 57 cm, allows the bench to be adapted to suit different users and bathtub heights.
With overall dimensions of 67 x 41 x 45–57 cm and a maximum user weight of 110 kg, it is a practical bathing aid for older adults, people with reduced mobility and users recovering from injury or surgery.

Easier Transfers In & Out of the Bath
Stepping over the side of a bathtub can be difficult for people with limited balance, strength or lower-limb mobility. A bath transfer bench provides a seated method of transferring across the bathtub edge.
The user can sit on the outer section of the bench before carefully moving across the seat and positioning their legs inside the bath. This can reduce the amount of standing and stepping required during the transfer.
Height Adjustable Bath Transfer Bench
The bench can be adjusted between approximately 45 and 57 cm in height, allowing it to accommodate different users and bathroom arrangements.
Correct adjustment is important to ensure the bench is appropriately positioned in relation to the bathtub and provides a suitable seating height for the user.
Lightweight Aluminium Alloy Construction
The aluminium alloy frame combines durability with relatively low weight, making the transfer bench easier to handle and position within the bathroom.
The corrosion-resistant properties of aluminium also make it particularly suitable for equipment intended for use in wet bathroom environments.
Fit & Suitability
This bathtub transfer bench may be suitable for:
-
Older adults who find stepping over the bath difficult
-
People with reduced mobility or balance
-
Users with limited lower-limb strength
-
People recovering from certain injuries or surgical procedures

Before purchase, check the 67 x 41 cm footprint and 45–57 cm adjustable height against the dimensions and configuration of your bathtub and surrounding bathroom area.
The bench should only be used where it can be positioned securely and appropriately. Users should have sufficient balance, strength and mobility to perform the transfer safely. Where there is uncertainty regarding suitability or safe transfer technique, advice should be obtained from an occupational therapist, physiotherapist or other suitably qualified healthcare professional.
