Questions people ask
What is a transfer pole?
It's a floor-to-ceiling pole that stays in place by pressure, so you have something steady to hold onto. Every transfer pole we list is a tension pole, as its maker describes it. Each product shows the ceiling heights and weight rating the maker lists.
Will a transfer pole fit my ceiling?
Measure from the floor to the ceiling where the pole would go. Each product shows the ceiling height range the maker lists, plus the range with an extension kit if the maker sells one. See how to measure.
Does my ceiling type matter?
Yes. Some makers say the pole needs a flat ceiling, or that the top plate must reach across a ceiling beam. Others don't say. We show each maker's ceiling requirement, or "Not listed". If you're unsure, ask the maker before you buy.
Do I need to drill holes?
Tension poles are held by pressure, but some makers say the top plate must be secured to the ceiling and reach across a ceiling beam. Follow the maker's instructions. If you rent, check your lease or building rules first.
Who can help me decide where to put it?
An occupational therapist can look at how you move around your home and suggest equipment that helps. See How to find an occupational therapist.
