FASTENERS: INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE

The Invisia™ Corner Shelf must be secured to the wall with
fasteners appropriate to the structural material. Inspect, or
have inspected (and tighten if necessary) the screws on a
monthly basis. Included are 2 sets of mounting hardware for
different wall applications.

COMBINATION

#10 x 2" S/S
Screw and Lock
Washer

#10 x 2" S/S Bolt
with SnapToggle®
toggle bolts

For tile walls judged to be suitably strong, for moderate
support weight bearing applications, you may choose to use
the supplied SnapToggle® toggle bolts without reinforcing
structural improvement. See Figur
details.

If you are using fasteners other than the ones supplied, we do
not recommend flat head style screws (i.e. a screw that
requires a countersunk hole). We recommend stainless steel
fasteners / lock washers (to prevent rusting). Also, residue
from steel drill bits and other non-stainless steel tools may
cause rust stains. Properly clean metal chips, debris etc. prior
to exposing to water.

TIPS FOR DRILLING INTO TILE

• Use carbide tipped masonr y drill on cera
diamond tip drill for porcelain tile.

• If possible, drill a smaller pilot hole first.

• Be careful to prevent the drill from moving when you first

start it rotating - use duct tape or a wood guide on the
surface of the tile to hold the drill from walking sideways.

• A variable speed drill on slow is best to start the hole. Do
not apply too much pressure when drilling. Do not use a
hammer drill.

WATERPROOFING

We recommend that sealant be applied a
contact points for any products mounted in the shower. If not
properly sealed, there is the potential for water to seep into the
wall. This may cause the wood to rot, thus compromising the
structure the support rail is attached to.

MOUNTING LOCATION

Figure 1.

We strongly recommend that you give some thought as
to the optimal location of your Invisia™ Corner Shelf
before installation. The following suggestions are offered
for your consideration, however, it is recommended to
consider advice from the appropriate healthcare
professional for locating any support rail.

To determine the optimal location, we recommend
holding the rail in place and walking through the motions
of a transfer (sitting, standing, reaching, etc.). Consider
the following when determining the optimal mounting
location:

1. Move mounting location to match structure behind
the wall.

2. Avoid electrical / plumbing behind the wall

3. Where possible, drill through tile - not through grout.

RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION LOCATION
Corner of Faucet Wall - Typically 36-60" from floor as

shown in Figure 1. If installing multiple Invisia™ Corner
Shelves, ensure space between is adequate to place and
remove items.

INVISIA™ CORNER SHELF INSTALLATION

Place a blanket down in the area that you will be installing
the Invisia™ Corner Shelf to protect the floor from parts
that may fall during installation. The proposed mounting
location must be cleaned prior to installation.

Refer to the fastener chart on page 1 to determine the
size of hole required for the appropriate wall construction.
NOTE: It may occur that one hole may be installed into a
stud, and another installed with SnapToggle® toggle
bolts.

A1. Hold the corner shelf against the walls. Adjust the

corner shelf with a level until it

is straight as shown in

Figure 2b.

A2. Mark the screw hole locations on the wall.

A3. Use the wall plates as a locating guide and notch the

tile with center punch as shown in Figure 3. NOTE: A
light tap is all that is required for punch to make notch.

A4. Use the appropriate drill bit on the notched tile to drill
a pilot hole for the fasteners. If SnapToggle® toggle bolts
are to be used, please see the separate installation
instructions. Continue with step A4.

A5. Fasten the Invisia™ Corner Shelf with the appropriate
fastener for wall construction, lock washer and retaining
washer & waterproof as shown in Figure 4.

NOTE: Perform a final tighten and inspection of all
fasteners. Test the installation by vigorously pulling on
the support handle of the Invisia™ Corner Shelf.

A6. Install the plastic snap caps to the plastic retainer
washers to cover the screws.

A7. Place the tray on top of the Invisia™ Corner Shelf,
pushing it against the corner. Install the

rubber bumpers

on the bottom of the tray, behind the bent metal bar as
