Modern Toilet Configurations and Systems

Choosing the right toilet involves considering both the aesthetic of your bathroom and the technical requirements of your plumbing. We provide a variety of mounting styles to suit any interior.

• Space-Saving Designs: For a minimalist and contemporary look, a wall hung toilet is an excellent choice. By lifting the bowl off the floor, it creates an illusion of more space and makes cleaning the floor hardware much easier. Alternatively, a back to wall toilet conceals the cistern behind a furniture unit or wall partition, providing a sleek, integrated appearance.
• Traditional Reliability: The classic close coupled toilet remains a favorite for its ease of installation and all-in-one design. We offer modern rimless toilet versions of this hardware, which eliminate the interior rim where germs and scale typically accumulate, ensuring a much higher standard of hygiene.
• Compact Solutions: If you are working with a tight layout, our short projection toilets are designed to save valuable centimeters without sacrificing comfort. For areas where traditional gravity drainage is not possible, a macerator toilet provides a powerful mechanical solution for installing a bathroom almost anywhere in the home.

Hygiene and Comfort with Bidets and Washlets

Enhanced personal hygiene is a growing priority for the modern household. Our range of bidets and integrated washlets brings a touch of luxury and improved cleanliness to your daily routine.

• Standalone Fixtures: A classic floor standing bidet or a wall mounted bidet provides a dedicated station for personal washing. These fixtures are designed to match our toilet ranges, ensuring a unified aesthetic for your bathroom suite. Pair these with a high-quality bidet mixer tap featuring a swivel nozzle for precise control.
• Integrated Technology: For those seeking the ultimate in convenience, an electronic bidet toilet or a smart toilet combines the functions of a toilet and a bidet in a single piece of hardware. These units often feature heated seats, adjustable water temperature, and warm air drying, making them a necessity for a high-end, accessible bathroom.
• Retrofit Options: If you want to upgrade your existing setup, a bidet toilet seat can be installed onto most standard toilet bowls. For a more manual approach, a handheld bidet sprayer—also known as a shattaf or health faucet—provides a versatile and affordable way to introduce bidet functionality to your space.

Installation Hardware and Essential Accessories

A reliable bathroom setup requires high-performance internal components to ensure long-term, leak-free operation.

• Cisterns and Flushing: We provide concealed cisterns and wall hanging frames that offer robust support for wall-mounted hardware. Our dual flush plates allow you to choose between a full or partial flush, acting as a vital water-saving feature for the environmentally conscious home.
• Seats and Fittings: Complete your installation with a soft close toilet seat, which prevents slamming and reduces wear on the porcelain hardware. We also stock a variety of pan connectors, wax rings, and floor fixing kits to ensure a secure and watertight connection to your soil pipe.
• Maintenance and Cleanliness: Keep your fixtures pristine with our selection of toilet brushes and hygienic storage holders. For long-term care, using the correct non-abrasive cleaners ensures that the protective glaze on your ceramic hardware remains smooth and stain-resistant for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a rimless toilet and why should I choose one?
A rimless toilet is a modern piece of hardware designed without the traditional overhanging rim inside the bowl. When you flush, water is distributed more effectively around the entire surface. This is a mechanical necessity for those prioritizing hygiene, as it eliminates the hidden areas where bacteria and limescale typically build up, making the bowl much easier to clean.

Can I install a wall hung toilet on a standard stud wall?
Yes, but you must use a dedicated mounting frame hardware. This steel frame is installed inside the wall cavity and bolted to the floor and studs, providing the structural integrity needed to support the weight of the toilet and the user. It also houses the concealed cistern, making it a sleek and secure solution for modern bathrooms.

Do I need a separate hot and cold water supply for a bidet?
Traditional standalone bidets usually require a bidet mixer tap connected to both hot and cold supplies. However, many modern electronic bidet toilet seats or handheld sprayers use a single cold-water feed or feature an internal heater to warm the water. Always check the specific requirements of the hardware before beginning your plumbing installation.

What is a "dual flush" system and how does it save water?
A dual flush cistern features two buttons or a split lever that allows you to choose the volume of water used per flush. A standard full flush is typically 6 liters, while a partial flush uses only 3 liters. This hardware is a necessity for reducing household water consumption and lowering utility bills without compromising on performance.

How do I measure for a replacement toilet seat?
To ensure the correct fit, you should measure the distance between the two fixing holes on the toilet bowl, the maximum width of the bowl, and the distance from the fixing holes to the very front edge of the porcelain. Matching these measurements to the new seat hardware ensures it stays securely in place and provides a comfortable, aligned fit.
