This video is a lifesaver. The instructions that came with the toilet seat were utterly useless although anything remotely involving assembly fails me. In matter of minutes I fitted the toilet seat following this video. Thank you very much.
Oh you Guns!!!!! I was half mad trying to work this out - the instructions only related to setting up the softclose mechanism ie no info about actually attaching the seat to the pan. Your vid solved everything! Thank you💕
Thank you so much. I agree with carb10 about the useless instructions. I’ve just reach the end of my tether fitting a toilet toilet which had no instructions and then the seat was the last straw. Your tutorial is amazing. Thank you.
Awesome, thank you for this simple guide. Had a seat go loose and had no idea how to remove and tighten. Use to the seat bolts you can access underneath. As soon as I saw the release button, my self fix was easy!
This person who introduced this video is a lifesaver and genius I was giving up with the installation after I watched this video I tried exactly same step and my hard work has paid off
Good tutorial.
It's also important to make sure the seat stays up unsupported. You may need to rotate the mounts so that the spindles are in front of the screws, not behind, to achieve this
Thanks... needed to fix the toilet... watched the vid and 3 minutes later was enjoying the fruits of my labour haha
Thanks so much! The instructions that came with my new toilet seat were very basic and I couldn’t work out what to do. Saved a few hours of guesswork!
It worked! A task I had been dreading suddenly made easy thanks to this… Cheers! 👍
Thanks! Just used this and it worked!
Lovely!! Many thanks!!
Exactly what I was looking for to help replace my toilet seat and fix. Thanks
Great video. Explain well. Thanks.
Brilliant. Thanks sooo much!
Thank you for this guide, really helpful!
Thanks for this video. Our seat had come loose and was flopping about, and I hadn't realised that the silver metal covers could come off. I'll go fix it now!
Thanks, I have just got exact #eat cover today to replace the old one. It was so tough and very hard to reach the underside. You just saved me
This is very helpful thank you!
Thank you
Another one of life's mysteries solved thanks!
You're welcome.
Thank you, great tips!
Thankyou very much, came in extremely handy.
Fabulously useful video! Thanks.
Thank you so much! I manage to do it by myself.
Good video. But I can't seem to work out how to remove the old toilet seat as I would like to replace mine. Any suggestions please.
Some have butterfly screws unser the back, that´s the easy bit! ;)
@@gaptaxi that’s how to remove the toilet cistern.. not the seat mate
Works great!
Thank you 😊
Thank you.
Very helpful, thank you so much. I was able to replace my broken toilet seat because of this video.
Nice work enjoy the video thanks sir for that
Many thanks, it's really useful to me :)
Thanks for sharing🙌🤚
Amazing video 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you ❤ God bless you.
Brilliant video well done. So refreshing to see good videos like this👍👍👍👍👍
Brilliant video, I can put my toilet seat straight now!
Thank you. I fitted the seat within minutes, but, the lid has come off and I have been trying most of the day to get it back. I cant, any ideas please?
Thanks.
I've watched the video.
Gives me an idea how to fix.
This person is awesome and very helpful thank you so much from my bottom of my heart bless you🌺🌹
Sure you don't mean from the heart of your bottom?
That's brilliant i realise now that i had got the plastic which the long screw fits into upside down no wonder the seat felt loose, i can now have another go at it.... The paper diagram which came with the seat was hard to understand fortunately i worked it out for myself but i must say it felt like putting a jigsaw puzzle together.
Very good idea 10 out 10
Amazing video thanks help ed me a lot new seat fitted now after seeing you’re video
Wow, just what I needed A-Z! 👍
Brilliant
Thank you best video on youtube
Type rap god you will regret ot
I did exactly as this video shows, I think it's actually the same seat and set as mine and it's not a solid tight install because the plugs you put in are not tight
Awesome
Thank you. Your video saved the day. The instructions that came with the seat were useless.
Any idea where I can get a pair of those hard plastic bungs please?
thanx my g
This is just what I needed , now to fix seat
How to remove the lid and seat layer ? Thank you
I have tighted the screws as much as possible, but within a couple of weeks the seat has oved back or so that it's at an angle - is there any way to stop that?
good
Any idea where to get spare of those fittings you put into the holes in the toilet?
I need to find a toilet seat just like this one. What brand name is it can you tell me. I have that seat now but the finish has come off of it and it’s probably not all that sanitary. Would you know where I can purchase one?
What kind of seat is this as I can't get behind the unit. I need this exact one. Thanks.
شكرا لهذا الشرح لقد استفد منه👌👌👌👌
tough thing is shopping for all these bits, I dont have a clue, guess il put up with my wobbly toilet seat lol
The use of the masking tape is an act of genius. Thanks!
Align with pencil mark? Didnt understand that part. Align the prongs or screw or black caps? Looked out by a bit. Perhaps camera angle made it look wrong?
Having just come across this older tutorial, I a wondering if you could assist please. I am trying to find the correct fitting
toilet seat for my pan. Unfortunately having broke it. I have taken the measurements of the pan width, height, holes etc. but
am unable to get assistance from either online company's or visiting bathroom shops. Are you able to provide any guidance.
I would be able to send an image, if there is a method of sending to you. Thank you
Whats that plastic thing that was inserted?
The fixing holes in our toilet are 20mm, most fittings seem to be 17mm, how can we attach a new seat? Any ideas please?
With this type of fitting, the seat moves from side to side no matter how hard I tighten the screws. Any suggestions!? Thanks.
Some toilets there is a rubber spacer. Did you find a fix for yours?
Does it fit the shape of most pans :)
It seems to be the most common method to secure a modern seat regardless of the shape Mark.
Each manufacturer does have it's own variations but most are now quick release.
The white plastic fixings that go through the actual ceramic toilet that came with my seat are wide to fit. Any ideas on how to solve this please.
This means fixing from underneath. One side is great, the other is a struggle to tighten. I am scoping narrower wells, too.
Same here! I have cut the bottom from the top (through the thin 'wires').
I have a Ergo Height High Elongated toilet and my previous tenant didn’t say anything and the top seat cover is broken and stinks. I tried looking on canadian tire and other websites but I couldn’t find it. So I don’t know what is the standard size. If you have an email address I can send you the picture of my toilet seat. Is it possible to put any other toilet pot cover or it has to be the same one. Please help
Bought 4 seats so far for our toilet and none have this fitting and they all break after a while
I was worried that the distance between plug holes would be the factor stopping me from installing my new toilet seat. But no, what stopped me was that the plugs don't fit in the holes
I have the same problem, how did you solve it?
@@Nathan-H There was a sub set of instructions in the installation guide for alternative styles of toilet fittings. I followed those instructions and they worked for my style of toilet seat. Good luck
Very very helpful, saved me $150
Agree. Instructions that came with toilet seat and hardware are useless. Plus the replacement seat hardware does not come with a new insert to screw bolt in. This is the most important part to replace because it deteriorates bc of the "Wet" environment
What the hell are those little wall plug type things you used ?
Video was not help I order a wooden toilet it's set up different what kit I should use
It's mildly disturbing that the toilet seat doesn't cover the edges of the bowl. Is it supposed to be like that?
I bought an NTS004 from Victoria Plumbing. The instructions were okay but this includes the bit about lining up holes in the bog with those in the bog seat. This will save me a bit of time and bad language!
iTS VERY EASY BUT I HAVE TRIED ITS NOT FIXIXNG STILL LOOS
Masking tape - genius thanks
Why have you not shown the underside of the toilet seat to show what the screws are securing to. Not that great of a tutorial to be honest
I'm 34 and can't even fit a toilet seat
Good instruction , crap (unnecessary) music.
Great video, just hope my one goes as well .🫣
Thank you
