    Nice, I’ve installed two of these in the last month. Toilet holes are hidden inside and no attachments. I use the tape as a reference both on the floor and the toilet, but I gently trace the template on the floor with pencil, and tilt the toilet in from the face. So far 2 no problem.

    So, you don't actually show the installation?

      Installation is covered in lots of videos. This was simply attempting to show a technique for one person to install a skirted toilet in a confined space.

    Another way to do it is making the cardboard template like you did and placing it in position then with hot glue, temporarily place a couple of 2 by 4 pieces on the perimeter to help guide the toilet in position!!! You’re welcome!!

    Maybe the title should be “Tips on how to prep before install” or something? Otherwise these are really good tips!

    Does this toilet have a flapper? Can you just goto home depot and get a replacement? Those go bad every few years

    How did you drop those blocks at the end?

    • @knerduno5942

      According to the manufacturer video, you are supposed to use their template to use it as a guide so you drop it in the correct spot so the bolts go through the holes.

    This toilet is trash!! Had to smash it to remove it! There is no access at all! Stay away from the headache!

    How did you tighten the bolts once the toilet was on the floor?

    • @tomscorner9420

      As I recall, the toilet came with a wrench. I had to reach around and tighten the bolt.

      @Lineve Ritchie As I recall, one end went on the nut and the other end was like a big key so that you could twist with one hand while reaching around.

      @@tomscorner9420 ive installed a couple of them and have had very poor experiences. Im happy for you that your experience has been good but I will not guarantee my work past 90 days with these. The plastic L bracket is a recipe for black water disaster in my opinion

      @@twistedpudding the closet bolts attached to 2 nylon L brackets. The toilet screws in from the side to attach to the nylon bracket hence "holding it" to the floor. They stash the hardware in the toilet bowl. When you're pissed off because the screws won't reach, its not you. They are a quarter inch too short to engage. Go to your home center and get 4in stainless screws
