Product Information
Full details
The RTS Top Fix Round Soft Close Toilet Seat is designed for homeowners and renovators seeking a clean, durable, and low-maintenance upgrade for contemporary bathrooms or cloakrooms. Its primary benefit is the combination of a silent soft-closing mechanism and a quick-release cleaning system, though users should note that the 400x420mm dimensions require precise measurement of their existing toilet pan to ensure a perfect fit.

FAQs
Will this seat fit all toilets?
No, it is designed for round toilet pans measuring 400x420mm. Always measure your existing bowl before purchasing.
Can I remove the seat for cleaning?
Yes, it features a two-button quick-release system that allows you to lift the seat off the base effortlessly.
What is the difference between top and bottom fixings?
Top fixings are installed from above (common for back-to-wall pans), while bottom fixings are tightened from underneath the bowl.
Is the finish easy to clean?
The semi-gloss surface is non-porous and easy to wipe down with mild household cleaners.
Does it include all necessary hardware?
Yes, the product comes with both top and bottom fixing kits to ensure compatibility with most standard toilet designs.
Troubleshooting
Seat wobbles after installation
Check the hinge bolts and ensure they are fully tightened; if using top-fixings, ensure the expanding bungs are properly seated.
Soft-close mechanism is slamming
Ensure the hinge dampers are not obstructed and that the seat is mounted level; if the problem persists, the internal damper may be faulty.
Quick-release buttons are stuck
Gently clean around the button springs with a damp cloth to remove any soap or mineral build-up that may be hindering movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, first measure your current toilet pan to ensure it matches the 400x420mm footprint. Use the included hardware kit to select either top-fix (using expanding bungs) or bottom-fix (using traditional nuts and bolts) based on your bowl's design. For the best fit, insert the hinges but leave them slightly loose until the seat is aligned, then tighten firmly. For care, avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or bleach, which can damage the semi-gloss finish. Use a soft cloth with mild soapy water and dry thoroughly after cleaning to maintain the shine.
