My son's room is heated by a single panel radiator that's 1150 mm wide by 530 mm high. It's not powerful enough to keep the room warm so I'd like to replace it with a double panel of about the same size, but I can only find them in multiples of 100 mm wide, so either 1100 or 1200.

Is it possible to get one that's 1150 mm wide? If not, how easy would it be to fit one that's a bit too wide or narrow? We've recently had laminate laid over the chipboard floor so I'm not too keen to rip it all up just now if I can avoid it!

Thanks,
Jay.

If it's microbore the pipes should bend into place. If it's 15mm there are extension bars but they look awful in my opinion
 
Your size imp. rads are available. Although a straight swap size wise, if going from single to double, the valves will be slightly further from the wall on a double. If there is flexibility in the pipe where it comes through floor, should be OK. If not, slight pipe alteration required - poss just letting in a new piece of pipe with a kink in it. No big deal.

Great, thanks! I searched for 1150 mm. Didn't think to search for 1149. I think there should be enough room to bend the existing pipe a bit.
