What do you have to measure to buy a toilet seat cover?

Did you think I meant measure you a$$! I want to know what to measure so that it fits perfectly on the ceramic toilet. Why don't they make standard sizes? The landlord's maintenance guy has brought 2 different ones and both don't fit or perhaps he is doing something wrong. This present one looks right... perfect the top of the toilet well, but the plastic rod that passes through the actual seat and the cover seems to move and then the cover falls off. Please solve this problem for me. I hate touching toilet seats!

I was helping a relative with that problem. I took a double page from the newspaper and put it down on the ceramic. Then I put down the toilet seat and traced around it with a marker.

I brought that paper into Lowe's and matched the outline on it against the sample seats they had on the wall.

Stop Toilet Seat Slip

An Innovative American company has discovered a simple yet effective solution for keeping toilet seats permanently tight.  The makers indicate that you will never need to perform the unpleasant task of re-tightening the toilet seat screws again.

Yukon Seat Grip, of Royal Oak Michigan, introduces a new adhesive toilet seat washer which will prevent possible personal injury and toilet seat/hinge damage. The process takes less than five minutes to complete.

Conventional toilet seats do not generally remain engaged to the porcelain toilet bowl basin because the hole in the toilet basin is usually much larger in diameter than the threaded fastener used to secure the seat to it. The seat is attached to the bowl by a metal or nylon threaded bolt and nut assembly. The hole in the commode is normally much larger than the bolt size which causes a loosening of the bolts over time from constant use. The result is an insecure, wobbly, sloppy toilet seat. When a person raises and lowers the toilet seat and sits down on the toilet, they shift and vibrate the seat against the bowl basin, causing it to loosen.

The Yukon adhesive toilet seat washer will prevent bolt slippage and keep it in a secure position so the toilet seat remains permanently secure against the toilet bowl basin. The compressive strength of the nut and bolt act to secure the seat to the toilet bowl.

The unpleasant, inconvenient, and awkward task of putting your hands underneath the toilet bowl basin and using a clumsy tool to re-tighten the fastener assembly is eliminated.

The Yukon Seat Grip washer is made of compressible material with an adhesive facing. The pressure sensitive washer sticks to the bottom of the porcelain toilet bowl basin and keeps the nut in its place. Simply slip the bolt through the adhesive toilet seat washer and thread the nut back onto the bolt. The adhesive on the surface of the washer acts to hold the nut in position, thereby maintaining a permanent tightness and security of the toilet seat unit. If removal is necessary, simply peel off the rubber washer.

Yukon Seat Grip wins Retailers Choice at International Hardware Show in Las Vegas 2009.
