From complete installations to the final detail
Build the toilet area around dimensions, support and use
This category brings together complete sanitaryware packs and the accessories that influence how comfortably an accessible WC can be approached and used, from toilet-height plinths and backrests to toilet roll holders and other everyday details.
The starting point should be the finished toilet position: projection from the wall, seat height, transfer space and the relationship between the WC, grab rails and other support products.
Once those fundamentals are established, individual accessories can be selected to complement the user and the existing or chosen sanitaryware rather than being added as isolated products afterwards.
A coordinated WC zone
Four decisions influence one another
01
WC configuration
Complete Doc M pack or an existing toilet installation being adapted.
02
Finished seat height
Consider standing, sitting and transfer requirements before fixing the WC height.
03
Projection from the wall
The toilet position affects support-arm, backrest and transfer geometry.
04
Support and reach
Position the backrest, rails and everyday accessories around the intended user.

Think beyond the toilet pan
Five layers create the finished WC zone
The individual products work best when their positions are resolved together. Toilet geometry affects the user's position, which in turn affects backrest depth, support location and reach to accessories.
Seat height
Establish the finished height around transfers, standing and sitting.
Back support
Match backrest projection and adjustability to the installed toilet position.
Lateral support
Coordinate surrounding support arms or rails with transfer space.
Everyday reach
Finish with toilet paper and other controls positioned for convenient use.

Doc M Toilet Packs
Bring the principal sanitaryware and support products together
AKW Doc M packs simplify product selection by combining a raised-height WC with the principal grab rails and washroom components required by the chosen pack configuration.

Planning a regulated accessible washroom?
A packaged sanitaryware set does not determine compliance by itself. For projects in England, check the complete room layout against the current applicable Building Regulations guidance, including Approved Document M and, where relevant, Approved Document T, together with the project specification and Building Control requirements.
Permanent height adjustment
Raise the complete WC pan rather than only the seat
A toilet plinth sits beneath a compatible floor-standing WC pan, increasing its overall installed height. This can be useful where a higher transfer or sitting position is required without adding a separate raised seat on top of the sanitaryware.
Current AKW height options
Select the increase required
25mm
38mm
50mm
59mm
75mm
100mm
The range includes GRP and SMC designs. Although described as universal, the pan footprint still needs to fit safely within the selected plinth, so check the dimensional diagram against the exact toilet before ordering.

Finish the WC around the user's seated position
Back support and the position of frequently used accessories can have a disproportionate effect on how comfortable and practical the finished toilet is to use.
Back support
Fixed, adjustable or removable backrests
Choose simple padded AKW backrests or more configurable Pressalit PLUS systems. Selected PLUS models can move sideways or vertically on the wall-track system, while dedicated versions are available for compatible SELECT toilet lifters.
Shop toilet backrests →
Everyday reach
Position toilet paper where it can actually be reached
The range includes individual wall-mounted holders as well as products incorporated into or attached beneath support rails. The Pressalit PLUS holder, for example, mounts discreetly beneath a compatible PLUS support arm.

Six dimensions and interfaces to resolve together
Small changes in toilet position can affect transfer space, backrest comfort, support-rail geometry and the ability to reach accessories. Confirm the complete arrangement before fixing the sanitaryware.
Finished seat height
Establish the intended top-of-seat height rather than selecting the pan or plinth independently.
Pan projection
Check the distance from the finished wall to the front of the WC and its effect on transfer and back support.
Wall and fixing structure
Support arms and adjustable backrests require appropriate structural support and compatible mounting systems.
Backrest position
Match the cushion depth and mounting position to the pan projection and user's preferred seated posture.
Transfer and support space
Coordinate lateral clearances, support arms and surrounding fittings before finalising the toilet centreline.
Accessory reach
Position toilet paper, flush controls and other frequently used fittings where they can be reached from the seated position.
Check compatibility before installation: toilet-pan dimensions, plinth footprints, backrest positions, wall construction and mounting systems vary between products. Always confirm the current technical information for the exact products being combined.
