Fit it to a solid masonry wall, or to a stud wall that has been properly reinforced with a pattress board or noggins, using fixings suited to the wall and the load. Wall fixings are not normally supplied, because the correct fixing depends on your wall. Check for hidden pipes and cables before drilling, and follow AKW's fitting instructions. Where the seat is being fitted for a specific person, an occupational therapist can advise on the best seat height and position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSizes \u0026amp; product codes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePadding\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAKW code\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEAN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo Padding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e01111\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5055295159396\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrey Padded Seat, Back \u0026amp; Arms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e01122\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5055295162891\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue Padded Seat, Back \u0026amp; Arms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e01123\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e–\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specification\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRange\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAKW 1000 Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrame\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminium (rust-proof)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePadding\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolyurethane (padded models), removable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSafe working load\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25st \/ 158kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSeat height\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e450–625mm, set at installation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFoot adjustment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e±13mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWall fixing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTwo mounting brackets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAKW lifetime warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the seat have a back and arms?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes – the 1000 Series seat has a backrest and arms as standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I buy replacement pads?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes – grey and blue arm and seat pad kits are available separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs it suitable for a sloping wet room floor?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes – the foot adjusts by ±13mm to keep the seat level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the maximum user weight?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 stone (158kg).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/akw-ltd.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Spec-sheet-1000-Series.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e1000 Series shower seat specification sheet (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNeed help choosing?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot sure which option is right?
