ShowerGlyde SG3 Sliding Transfer Bench with Swivel Seat — SolutionBased
/
The ShowerGlyde SG3 is the sliding transfer bench for the bathroom that will not take a standard transfer bench. Most benches need clear floor space on the outside of the tub — if a vanity, a linen cabinet, or a wall sits right at the tub end, a full-length bench simply will not fit. The SG3 solves that with two design changes: the shortest rail set in the ShowerGlyde line, and a seat that swivels 90 degrees as standard. The seat extends roughly eight inches past the tub lip instead of a full seat width, then rotates to face the user for the transfer. The result is safe, seated tub entry in a footprint that clears the obstruction. Locks at two points — outside the tub and inside the tub. 330 lb capacity, 24.7 lb total weight, clears a tub wall up to 19 inches, and assembles left-hand or right-hand from the same box. Grab bar, seat belt, and three interchangeable seat inserts are all included.

Key Features
⚠️ Before Ordering — Three Measurements
1. Tub wall height: Floor to the top of the tub rim. Up to 19" works as shipped. Between 19" and 25" needs the optional extension legs. Over 25" — call us, the SG3 is not the right product.
2. Clear space beside the tub: Measure from the outside of the tub to the nearest obstruction — vanity, cabinet, wall, door swing. If you have roughly 20"+ of clear floor, the SG1 may suit you better. Under that, the SG3's short rail is the reason it exists.
3. What's next to the tub: A vanity or wall points to the SG3. A toilet directly beside the tub points to the SG2, which slides over the toilet seat. Open floor space points to the SG1.
Call us with those three numbers and we'll confirm the model: 866-218-0902
