The bolts that hold the toilet seats are 7 inches apart. We need to be replace seats in green, peach and gray. I found a white one on the Locke Plumbing website, but the colored seats have 5 inch bolts. Does anybody know where I can find toilet seats with 7 inch bolts to fit a Case toilet in green, peach and gray?

I have a beautiful pink bathroom. Everything is pink! My problem is the toilet. It's a pink American Standard Church elongated wideback seat. This means the bolts that hold the seat on the bowl are 10 1/2" apart. The seat is broken. I can't find anything to fit. All the seats I find are about 6". I'm not sure what to do or where to go. If anyone has any ideas, please help. I would like to keep my bathroom as original as possible. My name is Susie. I have a beautiful pink bathroom. Everything is pink! My problem is the toilet.

A couple points of Interest. Bemis Manufacturing Company make toilet seats with the brand names: Bemis, Church, Mayfair, Olsonite, and Westport. Bemis also makes some toilet seats for other companies, such as our neighbor Kohler and American Standard. Locke Plumbing's link above is just showing a small set of Bemis' color seats. Bemis' Color Direct program will have every color that we currently make, so it's your best chance to find that solid color you're looking for. The "Kit" includes color chips with the Bemis color number and the different manufacturers that color is known to be associated with. We're working hard on updating all of Bemis' website to make finding a color toilet seat, or any toilet seat, a lot easier. There's really a lot more out there than many people realize and it can be daunting to find the right one, sometimes. And color matching is never an easy task! Hi all!
