Title: Toilet pan screws....
Post by wotamess on Sep 29^th, 2005, 8:57am

Daft question but, can anyone advise what's the best way to secure the pan to the floor and what with? The pan has two holes about 11mm dia...which seems to be too big to take a normal sized screw head...and also I seem to remember plumbers cuttind small round washers out of lead to protect the glaze. Are there any special screws/caps available? :-/

Fisher make a set that come with grommets to protect the pan & large white screw caps. Should be ble to get them from a plumbers merchant or Screwfix do the No 43370.
