Can I take out the anchor screws that are in my Rialto toilet with this kit? I need to take them out to buy a new seat

I had to borrow a bolt cutter to remove them, and they fell into the cavity below, which is fine. My screws were frozen in place. Once I got them out, installing new ones with the kit was easy. I tried buying anchors in a local hardware store, but I couldn't find the right size.

I have 2 of these obnoxious Kohler one piece toilets. The biggest pain was removing the original anchor/screw. Here is the video of how to do that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsMyRGf2Agk You will need a piece of plywood and a crow bar . You can then use this set for the new seat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OlCjBBAg7I

No it is to replace or put new ones in. I had one come out and had to buy this kit.

I was unsuccessful trying to use this kit. And I thought cost of kit was way over priced for what you are getting.

Kohler says you can, but I could not. I could not stabilize the bolt. I gave up and Kohler refunded my money. Good luck trying.

Marina, I'm not sure how this would function with the Rialto toilet, I only know it worked for my San Raphael model. They look to be similar, but I'm no expert. Good luck!

It's been a couple years since I did mine, it was a bit of work and I'm a professional craftsman. First of all, be very careful and patient, take your time not to break the porcelain. The original aluminum screws are a pain in the neck, there is a tool included that you can use underneath the anchor to hold it still while extracting the screws. If that doesn't work, try cutting them flush with a short hacksaw and then drilling them out. Then, gently tap and push the original anchors through and in to the base, you won't need them. Then, read the directions very carefully and then read them again...follow them strictly. This kit works very well and you'll be very happy. Hope this helps.

I had a problem with that too. I remember watching a video on YouTube that explained it and it was really easy after watching the video. If I remember correctly you push the top of the hinge to the side allowing you to remove the lid. Then you're able to turn the screws from the top - not the bottom. I was trying to turn from the underside of the toilet and there wasn't room. Try googling Bemis easy change toilet seat installation and a YouTube video will be one of the first results. Hope this helps you!

I'm sorry, I had the toilet installed professionally so I don't know if the bolts were there. I defer to other customers. Good luck!

yes these can be removed . There is a knob on the item that allows you to install or meove the mirrow when you need to. Do not cause the mirrows to fold with those installed. They will come off.

Yes, we kept our original hardware, but there will be no damage to the seat being used with the risers. The toilet with the risers is much easier for my husband to use and even my visiting daughter likes it this way.

Two removable plastic bolts were shipped with the toilet seat. You need to put the bolts through the holes of the toilet and install the toilet seat using a screw driver.

Yes. The toilet seat just attaches on top; you can use the existing seat bolts/screws to re-attach the seat.

There are screws that come with the product. I drilled those screws with the product under the toilet seat.

Yes, they supply you with long screws. This is for my mother and we have had this for many years. I just recently had to order another because the block wouldn't stick to the seat, but beside that I would recommend this. Next step would be get a high toilet.

If these are completely attached and there are no screws to remove the toilet rim, then you won't be able to install it. It goes between the toilet seat and the rim. Usually you will have 2 plastic screws holding the rim onto the toilet seat. This bidet goes between the rim and the toilet seat and then you use the screws that hold the rim to hold everything in place.

The toilet seat must be removed first. Place the mounting brackets of the safety rail over the holes, for the toilet seat, behind the toilet bowl. Place the toilet seat mounting holes on top of the safety rail mounting brackets. Run the seat mounting screws through seat, safety rail and toilet bown and secure with seat nuts. Adjust the front legs to level the horizontal handles of the safety rails.

I have not removed mine yet, but it was easy to install and should be easy to remove. I think you may have to be careful with the holdfasts that tuck into seat.

Sure there is. Just remove the seat from the swivel platform. (4 screws). Recover with whatever material or pattern you like.

I have installed a lot of toilet seats and have never seen bolts too big. You are probably going to have to drill the underside of the seat to fit this new hinge. This makes the task quite difficult.

Just to be sure...first remove the old seat. You shouldn't need any tools, but a screwdriver to hold the top screw while you reach underneath the seat and tighten the bolt to the screw.

No, they are not. It might be they unscrew in some fashion but I have not seen a way to do so in my use of them. I have only focused on using them with the handles however, but I don't see a way to detach them just by glancing at them.

you remove rear bolts holding toilet seat down then install bolts through the rails and toilet seat and tighten back you will need adjustable wrench and large bit screwdriver to remove bolts and resemble.
