The Bellavita Side Flap aids bathers when entering and exiting the tub. The side flaps eliminate the gap between the seat and the side of the tub, which can be an obstacle for the bather. The flap lies over the space and provides an area for the bather to slide into position. The flap is made of smooth plastic that opens and extends to both sides of the tub, working from either side, making it ideal for wider tubs.
