Short Projection Toilets

For a small bathroom, the most important measurement is usually the toilet projection from the finished wall to the front of the pan. A shorter projection can provide additional clearance around doors, basins, vanity units and other bathroom fittings.

Do not rely on terms such as compact, slimline or space-saving alone. Check the actual dimensions of each toilet before ordering, particularly where available floor space is tight. For room-led compact WC options, you can also browse our cloakroom toilets.

Short projection toilets can use different installation configurations. A close-coupled toilet has a visible cistern mounted behind the pan, while a back-to-wall toilet conceals the cistern behind furniture, boxing or another suitable installation surface. A wall-hung toilet is supported above the floor using a compatible concealed frame.

Compare our close-coupled toilets, back-to-wall toilets and wall-hung toilets if the toilet configuration is as important as the projection depth.

The two categories overlap but describe different buying requirements. A short projection toilet is defined primarily by reduced wall-to-front depth, while a cloakroom toilet is selected around its suitability for a small cloakroom or downstairs WC.

If reduced depth is your main priority, continue browsing this short projection toilet range. If you are planning the complete compact room, see our cloakroom toilets or cloakroom suites.

Where floor space is restricted, other WC configurations may also be worth comparing. Our 2-in-1 toilets combine toilet and basin functionality, while comfort-height toilets provide an alternative seat-height configuration where that is an important requirement.

You can also browse the complete toilets range to compare different installation styles, sizes and configurations.
