Preparation for fitting a Quick Release toilet seat

A Quick Release toilet seat offers greater flexibility for cleaning the bathroom. The innovative Quick Release function makes it possible to clean even difficult to reach parts of your toilet. What exactly is Quick Release? This system allows you to remove the toilet seat from the hinges in a single tool-free step and then replace it again. The Quick Release system offers practical benefits for first installation too as you can attach and adjust the hinges before positioning the toilet seat. The most important consideration is checking the compatibility of the dimensions of your selected Villeroy & Boch toilet seat and toilet.

Info

Choosing products from the same collection will, of course, guarantee a perfect fit. Otherwise, check the precise dimensions of the toilet seat on the data sheet, including the distance between the holes. Your Villeroy & Boch dealer will also be able to advise you on suitable combinations.

The perfect toilet seat and checking compatibility

Villeroy & Boch offers a wide selection of toilet seats with the Quick Release function, allowing you to choose between different shapes and designs. Within each collection, you can also select the appropriate size of seat to ensure perfect compatibility between your toilet and the Quick Release toilet seat.

Before choosing your toilet seat and lid, check the distance between the holes specified on the data sheet as this must match your selected toilet. This measurement is often 180 millimetres to allow different combinations of toilets and seats. Most toilet seats with a Quick Release adapter also have the SoftClosing feature. This popular mechanism closes the toilet lid very gently and is perfectly compatible with Villeroy & Boch’s Quick Release system.
