Which Raised Toilet Seat Should You Choose?

It's important to have easy access to the toilet, but if your toilet is very low, it can unfortunately cause problems for many elderly or mobility-impaired individuals. Fortunately, a simple raised toilet seat can make a big difference in everyday life by making it much easier to sit down and stand up from the toilet.

You can choose from various heights and types of raised toilet seats, so you can easily find one that suits your needs and fits your toilet at home.

- If you need a **permanent solution**, it's a great idea to choose a raised toilet seat that can be permanently mounted on the toilet. All our raised toilet seats are easy to install without the use of tools. - If you only need a **temporary solution**, you should choose a removable raised toilet seat. This option is also suitable for taking with you when traveling.

How High Should Your Raised Toilet Seat Be?

At Seniorshop, you can choose from raised toilet seats of 5, 10, and 15 cm, which are standard heights.

A typical toilet will generally be between 40 and 46 cm high, and here, a raised toilet seat of between 5-10 cm will suffice in most cases. The important thing is that your raised toilet seat should be at a height where it's least bothersome to sit down and stand up, but it shouldn't be so high that you have difficulty reaching the floor with your feet. You can also try experimenting with an ordinary chair that's higher than your toilet.

Purchase Raised Toilet Seats with Armrests

If you need extra support, you might want to choose a raised toilet seat with armrests, which you can hold onto and use for support. Alternatively, you can buy a separate toilet support that can simply be mounted on the wall by the toilet.

On this page, you can find smart raised toilet seats with both lids and armrests. Armrests, in particular, can be a significant advantage if you need a bit of extra support to stand up or sit down on the toilet. The armrests on this type of toilet chair can easily be flipped down and up independently, and the handles are solid and non-slip.

When the raised toilet seat is to be installed, the existing toilet seat is first removed, after which the raised seat can easily be secured.

Find Raised Toilet Seats Without a Lid

A raised toilet seat without a lid is practical if you prefer not to raise and lower the lid, keeping your toilet always 'open' and easily accessible. Here, you can choose between raised toilet seats of 5, 10, or 15 cm, all of which are easy to mount over the toilet.

You also have the option to purchase a raised toilet seat that simply needs to be pressed into place, making it easy to take off and put on, as well as to take with you on trips.

Note that when purchasing a raised toilet seat without a lid, you won't be able to use the lid from your existing toilet. If you need to close your toilet, you should purchase a model with an included lid, which is, of course, also available here at Seniorshop.

Many of our raised toilet seats can be mounted directly over your existing toilet seat, so the existing seat does not need to be removed first. You can find information about this under each product.
