Baths with Doors: What Should You Look For?

Traditional bathtubs have steep sides that can be difficult for people with mobility issues or disabilities.

A walk-in or wet room is a simple way to solve this problem, but they don't provide the same relaxation as a deep, relaxing bath.

Fortunately, there's no need to sacrifice a lovely hot bath due to the wide range of fantastically-designed walk-in baths that make accessibility a breeze.

These are the most popular types of walk-in baths

There are two main types available for walk-in bathtubs.

• Full-length bath with an opening door
• Take a seat in a bath and open the door

Your mobility and range of motion will determine the best option for you.

Sit-up baths are taller than regular baths and include a seat to sit down in the water.

These can be helpful if it is difficult to stand from a horizontal position. Once you are done, it will be easy to get out.

The full-length bath looks almost the same as a regular bath except that it has a door so you can get in and out of the tub without having to lift your legs.

This could work for you if you can lift your legs high enough to get from a horizontal position.

High-quality manufacture

It is essential to choose a reliable, long-lasting walk-in bathtub.

Baths are made from high-quality acrylic sheets that provide a smooth, sleek finish. The top-quality door access system includes a durable hinge system and exceptional watertight sealing.

Luxury easy-access bath options

All luxury walk-in bathtubs have a variable air spa system that includes soothing multi-jets to help blood flow and relax muscles.

You can fill the bath to your liking using the waterproof electronic touchpad on the inside of the bath.

You have two options: chromotherapy LED lighting or pre-programmed therapies.

You can also add a thermotherapy inline heat. The thermotherapy inline heater turns on when the system switches on to maintain maximum well-being.
