Oakwood Over-Toilet Frame

Oakwood Over-Toilet Frame – Adjustable Toilet Support with Armrests

The Oakwood Over-Toilet Frame is a lightweight aluminium support frame designed to provide stable arm support around a toilet without adding a raised toilet seat. It attaches to the rear of a suitable toilet and gives the user supportive armrests to hold when lowering onto or rising from the toilet.

Both the height and width are adjustable, allowing the frame to be set up to better suit the user and bathroom layout. The overall width adjusts from 450 to 550 mm and the height from 650 to 750 mm. Moulded armrests provide a comfortable hand position, while the durable aluminium construction keeps the frame practical for regular bathroom use.

With a 100 kg safe working load, the Oakwood is a straightforward option for someone who wants extra support at the toilet but does not necessarily need a raised toilet seat or a fully freestanding toilet surround.

Which Toilet Support Style Is Right for You?

The Oakwood is best suited to someone who wants supportive armrests beside the existing toilet seat while keeping the standard toilet sitting height. Because it attaches at the rear, it takes a different approach from a fully freestanding toilet frame.

If you need a raised toilet seat as well as arm supports, see the Goldfern Over Toilet Frame. If you prefer a support frame that stands independently around the toilet without attaching at the rear, see the Free Standing Toilet Surround.

Bathroom layouts and toilet shapes vary, so it is worth checking the available space and compatibility before ordering.
