ProBasics Steel Drop-Arm Commode

🔷 Product Overview

The ProBasics Steel Drop-Arm Commode is a versatile bathroom safety aid designed to provide added support while making lateral transfers easier and more accessible. Its easy-release push-button drop-arm mechanism allows the arm to lower out of the way, helping users transfer to and from the commode from the side.

The durable steel frame can be configured for three different uses: a bedside commode, toilet safety frame, or raised toilet seat. Soft, slip-resistant Hypalon® covered armrests provide comfortable support, while the removable backrest makes it easy to adapt the commode for different applications.

The seat height adjusts in 1" increments, and the included 7.5-quart commode bucket with carry handle and splash guard slides easily into place for convenient bedside use.

🔷 Drop-Arm Design for Lateral Transfers

A key feature of this commode is its easy-release drop-arm mechanism.

The push-button design allows the arm to be lowered out of the way, creating easier side access for lateral transfers to and from the commode.

This can be particularly useful when transferring between the commode and another surface, such as a wheelchair or bed, when performed using an appropriate transfer technique.

────────────────────

🔷 Soft Hypalon® Armrests

The armrests are covered with soft, slip-resistant Hypalon® material, providing a comfortable and supportive gripping surface.

The cushioned design adds comfort while seated and provides a secure surface for users who require additional upper-body support.

────────────────────

🔷 Adjustable Seat Height

The commode seat height adjusts in convenient 1" increments, allowing the setup to be customized for different users and bathroom configurations.

Adjusting the seat to an appropriate height can help reduce excessive bending and make sitting and standing more manageable.

────────────────────

🔷 Removable Backrest

The tool-free removable backrest makes it easy to configure the commode for different applications.

The backrest can provide additional seated support when the product is used as a bedside commode and can be removed when needed for other configurations.

────────────────────

🔷 7.5-Quart Commode Bucket

The included 7.5-quart commode bucket slides easily into position beneath the seat.

A built-in carry handle makes the bucket easier to transport for emptying and cleaning, while the included splash guard provides additional convenience when the frame is used over a toilet.

Its white frame and gray accessories provide a clean, neutral appearance suitable for a variety of bathroom and bedside environments.
