Hi guys,
I've secured a 980mm high Geberit frame with cistern in my downstairs loo. I secured a bracket with 5 threaded studs into the thermalite block behind the dry wall using chemical resin and bolted the frame feet to the floor. The measurement between the floor to top of frame is 980mm as per instructions. I've hung the toilet and it looks good.
I'm going to hire a tiler to tile around the boxed in frame and half way around the walls.
But wait a minute. I haven't taken into account the hallway floor being click and lock 18mm oak! So when the tiler tiles the loo floor it has to be level with hallway. So now the distance between the floor and rim of toilet measures approximately 15 1/4" I'm 6'2" my back to wall bathroom toilet measures floor to rim just a 1/4 higher.
I really don't want to redo the bracket height as I'd have to move it up 2cm and risk the thermalite block crumbling behind the drywall if I'm going to re drill holes and that's after grinding the existing studs flush with drywall. So is 15 1/4" plus the seat going to look and feel ok? Appreciate your feedback. Thank you
