How to Make Sure Your New Bidet Matches Your Toilet

Choosing the right bidet starts with one important question: Will it fit my toilet? At Bidetto, we make it easy to find the right match, whether you're buying an electric seat, a manual attachment, or a complete bidet toilet.

This guide explains how to measure your toilet, what shapes are compatible, and how to avoid common fitting mistakes. If you're still unsure, our team is ready to help you confirm before you buy.

Toilet Pan Shapes – What You Need to Know

To ensure a proper fit, the most important factor is your toilet pan shape. In Australia, the most common pan shapes are:

  • Elongated: Long, oval shape with a more extended seat surface
  • D-shape: Modern curved design with straight sides and a rounded front
  • Round: Compact, circular shape typically found in older homes

Each bidet product on our website clearly lists which toilet pan it fits. Before purchasing, check the shape of your current toilet.

How to Check Before You Buy

Step 1: Measure the distance from the base of your cistern (tank) to the front of the bowl. Most bidet seats require a minimum of 490mm, though this can vary depending on the model. We recommend checking the specific requirements for your chosen model before purchasing.

Step 2: Confirm your pan shape Match your toilet shape to the compatibility list on each product page. Most DIB and Luelue models fit D-shape and elongated pans.

Step 3: Check your power outlet All electric bidet seats require a standard 240V Australian power outlet within 1.2m of the toilet.
