Description
The HealthCraft SuperPole with SuperBar is HealthCraft's floor to ceiling grab pole with the 16 in (406 mm) SuperBar, made in Ottawa, Ontario. Westin Healthcare sells it and delivers it for homes across the Greater Toronto Area. Use Choose Model for the 300 lb SuperPole with SuperBar (SPB-S) on an 8 ft ceiling, SPB-S plus Uni-Fit for 8-10 ft, or the 450 lb SuperPole with SuperBar (SPB-HD) on an 8 ft ceiling.
The SuperBar has eight locking positions, one every 45 degrees. Lift the bar to move it. Lower it to lock. This is SuperPole plus SuperBar, not the pole on its own. The pole-only bariatric sibling is the HealthCraft SuperPole bariatric.
Who this SuperPole with SuperBar is for
The HealthCraft SuperPole with SuperBar is for a person who wants a floor to ceiling grab pole plus a 16 in SuperBar, stays at or under the HealthCraft rating on the model they pick (300 lb / 136 kg on SPB-S, 450 lb / 204 kg on SPB-HD), and has a ceiling HealthCraft will accept. Families here usually call when they want the bar in front of them at the bed, toilet, or chair.
- SPB-S 300 lb (136 kg) or SPB-HD 450 lb (204 kg)
- 16 in (406 mm) SuperBar, eight locks at 45 degrees
- 8 ft (93-99 in) on both models. 8-10 ft Uni-Fit on standard only
Fit, ceiling height, and the SuperBar
HealthCraft prints a 1.50 in (38 mm) pole and a 16 in (406 mm) SuperBar. The SuperBar is typically installed 24-38 in (610-965 mm) from the floor. HealthCraft's height tip: just above the belt line when standing, or near the base of the ribcage when seated.
The top plate is 20 in (508 mm). The base plate is 5 in (127 mm). Finish is anti-microbial white powder coat. Grip is latex-free PVC foam. HealthCraft prints a limited lifetime warranty and says the product is not intended for outdoor use.
HealthCraft's load rating is based on the user's weight. HealthCraft also prints that the SuperPole with SuperBar is not intended to support an entire full body weight. Stay at or under the rating on the model you order.
Installation, as HealthCraft prints it
The SuperPole is a jackscrew tension mount between a structurally sound floor and ceiling. HealthCraft's current SuperPole FAQ: the ceiling top plate must extend across at least one ceiling beam. Check the tension monthly. On SuperPole HD, HealthCraft says the ceiling top plate must be secured to the ceiling.
HealthCraft SuperPole 101: place the pole under one joist, or between two joists with the plate under both. Do not install under a radiant ceiling. Do not install if you do not know what is above the ceiling. Do not install on a sloped floor or on loose rugs. An angled ceiling needs HealthCraft's Angled Ceiling Plate, which is screwed to a joist. Follow the HealthCraft instruction sheet in the carton. We follow that sheet when we install the pole.
Use Choose Model for Standard 8 ft (SPB-S, 93-99 in / 2362-2515 mm), Standard 8-10 ft (SPB-S plus HealthCraft's Uni-Fit Extender, 100-120 in / 2540-3048 mm), or Bariatric 8 ft (SPB-HD). HealthCraft prints that Uni-Fit cannot be used with SuperPole HD. For a 450 lb user and a ceiling over 99 in, HealthCraft's next product is a floor-mounted Advantage Rail or Advantage Pole.

SuperPole, SuperBar, or Advantage Rail
This page is SuperPole plus SuperBar. The HealthCraft SuperPole bariatric is the tension pole without the SuperBar. The HealthCraft SuperPole with SuperBar bariatric is the same SPB-HD row if you only want the 450 lb carton. The HealthCraft Advantage Rail is the floor-mounted version when the ceiling will not take a SuperPole.
Funding help for bathroom safety equipment in Ontario
Ontario's Assistive Devices Program (ADP) does not fund bathroom safety equipment, so plan around other routes. Funding that may help instead: March of Dimes Canada's Home and Vehicle Modification Program, Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), extended health plans, and community programs. Westin Healthcare's staff work with these programs every week and will point you to the right route for your situation. Visit our funding page or call (905) 451-7743 to talk it through before you buy.
Delivery and setup in Brampton and the GTA
Westin's own team delivers this SuperPole with SuperBar across Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area. When we install it, we follow the HealthCraft sheet: find the joists, set the jackscrew, check the tension, and secure the bariatric ceiling plate when you order SPB-HD.
We have three stores in the Brampton and Toronto area if you would rather see the SuperBar swing first. For a scheduled in-home setup, call (905) 451-7743 and we will book the next date that works. Same-day delivery is offered through our hospital bed rental service; purchased poles are delivered and set up on a scheduled date.
This is a long carton. If the pole is going outside the GTA, ask us for a freight quote. Inside Toronto and the GTA, White-Glove Delivery (bring-in, unwrap, test, take packaging away) is described on the shipping policy. Any charge is confirmed on your order.
