Hello,

I know most toilet seats have either button locks to release them from the hinges or just screws. But for the life of me I can't figure out how to release the toilet seat pictured.



The seat is loose and the slow close has stopped working. I've tried googling but have come up empty. I have no idea what the brand is.

Any ideas?

Edit: I've tried to see if I can pop off the chrome covers but I haven't been able to get between the seal and the chrome bit. I was afraid of breaking something though so I didn't push that hard

The chrome covers should slide inwards. Might need soaking in silicone spray first

Thanks for the response. I did give this a go but they don't feel like they're budging at all.

Finally figured it out! The chrome covers don't come off. There was a small hole in the back that takes a small allen key, after unscrewing it the whole mechanism comes off with the seat.

Thanks all.
