Walk-In Baths

If you find getting in and out of a standard bath has become a worry, an Access walk-in bath gives you back the pleasure of bathing. Our range of full-length, midi and compact designs has an ideal Access bath for every bathroom and every need.

How does a walk-in bath work?

A walk-in bath is a bath you can step into safely without climbing over the side. Every Access walk-in bath is built around this same simple idea: a watertight, side-opening door lets you walk in over a low threshold, sit down on the integral seat and close the door behind you. The taps fill the bath around you while you stay comfortably seated. When you’ve finished, the fast-drain system empties the water before you open the door to step out.

You stay safely seated and supported throughout. Slip-resistant surfaces underfoot, anti-scalding temperature controls and an emergency-access door hinge are built into every Access bath as standard. To see one in action, take a look at our video guides.

Who walk-in baths are for

If a standard bath has become difficult, worrying or simply not as easy as it used to be, a walk-in bath could be exactly what you need. Older bathers, people living with limited mobility or arthritis, anyone recovering from surgery and carers helping someone bathe at home all use Access walk-in baths because they make bathing safer without giving up the pleasure of a soak.

Every Access bath has a low-step entry door and an integral seat to take the worry out of getting in and out. With slip-resistant surfaces underfoot and the option of grab rails on selected models, you stay safely supported throughout. For wheelchair users or anyone who needs more room to transfer in and out of the bath, our wide-access models include the extra-wide door on The Tennessee.

Whatever the bather and whatever the bathroom, our friendly team can help you find the ideal Access bath for your needs.

Our Ranges

Full-Length Baths

A full-length, walk-in bath is a perfect solution when stepping over the side of a conventional bath becomes more challenging. You retain the traditional lying-down bathing position, but access is so much easier. When there’s only one bath at home, this is a great option for the whole family. With a footprint that matches the regular bathtub shape, slotting it into your bathroom’s layout is simple.

Midi-Length Baths

The midi size is a great walk-in bathing option. With plenty of room for comfort, these baths are perfect for small spaces. The clean, modern styling will ensure they look perfectly at home in any bathroom. Stepping in is simple, and the integral seat is ergonomically contoured for a relaxing bath.

You’ll be safe and comfortable throughout, and when you’re done, you’ll find the slip-resistant surfaces and the upright position make getting out of the bath just as easy as getting in.

Compact Baths

Think about being able to step in without struggling. Think about a bath that will take hardly any space, but one that lets you relax whilst seated, in warm, chest-deep water. Think about a bath that will fill quickly, without a huge water bill. Think small but think beautiful – these are baths that would grace any home.

Thank you to the Access team for supplying a Texas bath. For the larger bather, this bath is excellent!

Purchased a Georgia bath due to the space restrictions within my existing bathroom. Have to say I was surprised how well it fitted in and still overs a relaxing bathing experience.

After plenty of research, Derek and I decided to purchase an Access bath because of the highlighted safety features which we couldn’t find elsewhere. Due to Derek’s condition, we needed a suitable bath to be able to accommodate his requirements and Access have provided that. I thoroughly recommend their products.

My husband and I wanted to continue having baths but without the hassle of feeling like we were going to fall every time we got out of our traditional bath! We went for the Louisiana model with shower and have to say I am extremely happy! With side door access, we can simply open the door and walk in with no stress. Thank you Access!

With age catching up on me, I took the bold decision to replace my traditional bath with an Access Walk-In bath due to my restricted mobility. I have to say I am thoroughly pleased I made this decision as I can enjoy a long soak without having to worry about getting into and out of the bath.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will a walk-in bath fit in my existing bathroom?

In most cases, yes. Our full-length walk-in baths share the same footprint as a standard UK bath, so they slot straight into the space your existing bath occupies. For smaller bathrooms, our midi-length and compact ranges offer the same low-step access in a more compact size. To confirm what would work in your bathroom, your nearest Access dealer can arrange a free home survey.

How long does a walk-in bath take to install?

Installation times depend on the bathroom, the model you’ve chosen and whether any layout changes are needed. Most Access walk-in baths can be installed in a single day by an approved installer, working from the findings of a free home survey. Your nearest dealer will give you a clear timeline as part of your quote.

Do walk-in baths take a long time to fill?

Each Access bath has quick-fill taps and a fast-drain system, so you spend as little time as possible waiting for water. Filling time depends on the model and your water pressure, but most baths fill in under five minutes. Selected models also feature Autofill, which speeds things up further.

How much does a walk-in bath cost?

Walk-in bath prices vary based on the model, the features and what installation involves in your particular bathroom. Our compact range starts at the most accessible end of the scale, with full-length models featuring options like Air Spa and Chromotherapy at the upper end. The best way to get a clear price is to ask your nearest Access dealer for a free no-obligation quote.
