NOVI, Mich. - Michimich -- Is your bathroom safe for elderly friends and family?
When you think about the future, does your shower seem inadequate for the next stage of life?
Fortunately, modern shower designs make it easier than ever to combine safety with style. As you plan your bathroom remodel, here are a few essential features to consider for a safer, more functional shower space.
1. Install Grab Bars (The Right Way)
Grab bars are a must-have for improved stability and peace of mind, but they must be installed correctly. Never attach grab bars to shower doors or glass—they need to be anchored securely into the wall to provide real support.
Remember: towel bars and decorative handles are not a safe substitute. Be sure to talk to your Wolverine Glass technicians early about your plans so they can include the proper wall blocking and reinforcement during construction.
2. Consider a Curbless Shower for Easy Access

Curbless walk-in showers are an increasingly popular choice for aging in place designs. With no step or threshold to navigate, they make it easier to enter and exit—whether you're using a walker, wheelchair, or simply want to reduce tripping hazards.
Just keep in mind: curbless showers require careful planning to prevent water from escaping into the rest of the room. A properly sloped floor and strategic drain placement are essential.
3. Don't Overlook Shower Door Width
If you or a loved one uses a wheelchair, the shower entrance needs to be wide enough to accommodate it. ADA guidelines recommend at least a 32-inch clear opening, which typically requires a 33-inch-wide door.
