Moen Secure Mount Anchor 1 Pair

I used this product today. Client wanted grab bars in her 1970's fiberglass one piece shower. I found one side of the shower was 1 inch thick and the other was 1/4 inch. This fit both thicknesses and was very secure. Moen engineers need a big "pat on the back" for this well thought out, well designed, well built product. Love your product. Brettk

On paper this product looks really good. So good in fact, that I ordered 10 singles. I encountered 2 huge obstacles in the design. The foam backer gasket doesn't compress quite enough, and the bar will wiggle a little under pressure. While I realize it won't come out of the wall, a wiggling grab bar is not a huge confidence builder. Second - the flange cover that comes with the grab bar (hides the install flange) does not cover the Secure Mount ring. The ring is a hair to big. If these were a little (and I mean a very little) smaller in circumference, the cover would work fine. At this point the flange cover won't push all the way over the mount, and the mount is left visible. Gives the impression that it's not a professional install. Overall, I like these so much that I'm tempted to grind the circumference down a few millimeters, scrape off the backer gasket and replace it with a few layers of painters tape. However, in the current configuration, I can't recommend them. If Moen made these few minor design adjustments, Secure Mounts would become the industry standard.
