How To Install A Soft Close Toilet Seat

In this video I will show you how to install a soft close toilet seat.
Parts and tools used:
Screwdriver - amzn.to/2qpUcVp
Utility Knife - amzn.to/2rohyJ1
Comet - amzn.to/2RUBQZV
Toto soft close toilet seat - amzn.to/2wEKnYG
If you can't do this yourself, I recommend Amazon Home Services to find a competent local plumber: amzn.to/2qb4xBP

Thanks! Took it all apart to thoroughly clean it, and now I hope I can get it back together!

Thanks, I've just installed mine today. The instructions in the package are very lacking and the video really helped.

[@deniseblake2907]

My seats didn’t come with instructions, so I had no idea what to do with those rubber thingies. Thank you so much!

[@lewislindsey1946]

Same here! The Church seat had NO INSTRUCTIONS. I had to call the Amazon vendor (a very good seller ) who referred me to Church customer service (a very nice lady ) who sent me a KZbin video that explained it perfectly. A one-page instruction sheet would have been a lot simpler. I can say that without the video I could have NEVER figured it out, and I am not embarrassed to say that!

Thank you for sharing from Thailand! Very useful. I watch your video, and I can set up soft seat because of this clip.

[@jilliancainphotography]

Thank you so much, I followed your directions and it worked like a charm.

[@megngarnett]

Thank you! This was the third video I tried and it finally did the trick! 🥰

[@ivondavid]

thank you Mr. How to Plumb for the great Information!! i could have broken the little plastic Screw Covers if i hadn't watched your video.

[@rachelmilgroom7367]

Great video and fab camera work! Thanks!

[@mandarin408]

Thats really great, just moved in into the new place and the toilet seats are annoying and loud, definitely will be replacing them. Thank for the tutorial!

[@sebbulon7303]

Closing very gently 😂 the reaction is priceless 🙈

[@parsonsenergy]

Great job Dan.

[@deniseayres3409]

Thk you! I needed this, great details.

[@jills9373]

Thanks so much! This was really helpful.

Kudos to the dude cleaning without gloves on. Turns out not to be my toilet seat that I can't install, but how I wish he has one for my loo seat! Why oh why do they muck around with the design of these danged things? They take an uncomplicated connection and make them big trouble. I have a soft close which I measured to ensure it would fit but can't slide the seat onto the connection "system". At least some will have been helped here :)

[@heidicook2395]

Thank you! I need to replace the screws because the nut has broke. It is a soft close and I could not find the hint part.

[@doreenwright-ht8wx]

Great information made it look so easy

[@huzzk123]

Thanks- clear instructions.

[@yonacohen3539]

Thanks, hope I can do it. You make it seem so easy.

[@yonacohen3539]

Thank you, make it look so easy and and a breeze to install. Hopefully a klutz like me will be able to succeed.

[@jt2553]

I had no idea where those rubber things went based on the “instructions!” Very much appreciated!!!

[@EllieAusten]

Design so different to the one I have that it does not work for me, but otherwise nice and clear. This is the third video I have tried as the instructions with the toilet seat not clear enough.

[@ML-xi2rt]

[@TonyNguyen-it7vd]

seems like all the toilet seats out there has the soft tabs at the back, except for mine. urrrg guess I gotta keep looking on youtube

[@bryantcaminero9693]

Is there a way to make it close a bit faster than that?

[@How2Plumb]

Yes push it down with your hand

[@bryantcaminero9693]

@@How2Plumb besides that option, there's some that allow you to change the speed setting. Thanks

[@LadyKimberly1]

Mine closes much faster than that one. I've never seen one close that slow. Thanks for the video! It had been years since I changed one and just wanted to make sure that nothing had changed. I have never seen the little plastic things to keep it from slipping before. I wouldn't have known how to do it. ☺️

Unfortunately, this does not help when it's a skirted toilet. We have had nothing but problems (expensive fixes) with our TOTO toilets.
