April 6Apr 6 I tried removing my toilet seat to clean it and I dropped the nut inside the hole. It’s one of these close to the wall toilet. What are my options do I need to remove toilet to fix the seat Edited April 6Apr 6 by Alwayslearning22
April 6Apr 6 Post a picture of the other nut. It will be possible to buy another one (probably sold as a pair)
April 6Apr 6 My mum did this and I found this was what was needed. This is for a Porcelanosa wall hung toilet. I would think it works for others, but you can probably look up a different make. https://www.bathroomspareparts.co.uk/porcelanosa-large-zip-toggles-100125027n499816968-179334-p.asp I assume that you still have the bolt otherwise you need this. https://www.bathroomspareparts.co.uk/porcelanosa-mood-toilet-seat-fixing-kit-100125026n499816970-179330-p.asp?utm_source=google&utm_campaign=&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=&utm_term=&device=c&utm_prodid=ebaths2179330&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22543615678&gbraid=0AAAAADreFuGWtF-V_WS2BsGksAOavlQv6&gclid=Cj0KCQjws83OBhD4ARIsACblj1-zxAkTQbL6K8xWSnCoftyZHxQFRWot1YcoyoW_WkbDYtAjwZRKctQaAmNBEALw_wcB For future reference, you probably can just remove the seat by tilting it up at a 75 degree angle then pulling it straight up, don't unscrew anything like my mum!

What are my options do I need to remove toilet to fix the seat Most of these are quick release as above. If you can identify the size of nut / thread then usually these are stainless steel (so a magnet won’t work) so don’t replace with mild steel.

Is it a standard type of nut that works with that plastic
