Hi all.
I have just replaced an upstairs single wall radiator with a double wall radiator (for more heat) but I did not consider the inlets.
I do not have access to the pipes as they come out of the floorboards and are then covered with laminate. There is a little give but not enough to comfortably reach the valves without constant stress.
My ideas:
1-cut into the wall so that the brackets are deeper so the radiator is closer to the wall (I'm not sure if there will be enough plaster to cut out)
2-Get a radiator valve with a bend in it so it comes out, shaped like this:

(I'm not sure if they exist)
Thanks.
