Checklist: Will This Bidet Work With My Riser?

By Raised Toilet Seat Staff

🧻 Raised Seat + Bidet? Don’t Guess—Checklist It.

Some combos just don’t work.
Before you waste time, tools, or 💸, use this quick checklist to see if your riser and bidet can peacefully coexist.

You can print this, save it, or use it as a prep list before buying anything.

🚽 1. Seat Bolt Compatibility

❓ Does your riser attach using the toilet seat bolts?

  • YES – ⚠️ Likely conflict with bidet base plate
  • NO – ✅ May be compatible

💡 If your riser bolts on below the seat, your bidet will likely have no room.

🧠 2. Space for Bidet Plate

❓ Is there about 0.5” of extra space between your toilet bowl and riser?

  • YES – ✅ That’s enough for a bidet plate
  • NO – ⚠️ You’ll crush the bidet mount

Bidet attachments sit on a thin plate between the bowl and seat—it needs room to breathe.

💦 3. Nozzle Zone Clearance

❓ Does your riser leave the rear rim of the bowl open?

  • YES – ✅ Spray path is clear
  • NO – ⚠️ Nozzle may hit plastic or be blocked

No clearance = no cleaning. Not good.

🔧 4. Water Line Accessibility

❓ Is the water inlet valve easy to access near the toilet tank?

  • YES – ✅ You can install the T-adapter easily
  • NO – ⚠️ Installation may require extra parts

If your riser makes the tank area hard to reach, even the water connection becomes a pain.

📐 5. Seat Height Considerations

❓ After installing the riser and bidet, will the seat be too high to sit safely?

  • NO – ✅ That’s fine
  • YES – ⚠️ Consider a lower-profile riser or frame

A combined height over ~21” can cause leg strain or balance issues.

💡 Compatibility Score

Mostly ✅s? You’re good to go!
Mostly ⚠️s? Time to rethink your combo.

Nova’s recommendations:

  • 👉 Use hinged risers that mount above the bidet
  • 👉 Try toilet safety frames instead of risers
  • 👉 Or go all-in with a bidet + riser integrated unit
