Details Shmeetails

Actually we think details matter a great deal.  That's why we designed The Buttress to exceed all your expectations.  See the selected comparison to our competitor on this page to know what we mean.  It clearly shows that we are the big noise in the room.  That way you can be certain (If certainty matters to you as much as we think it does) of your wisdom in specifying The Buttress on all your wall hung toilets.

Features and Strengths of The Buttress Universal Toilet Support

---

Apples to apples

.THE COMPETITOR

• Device is taped to the bottom of the toilet.

THE BUTTRESS

• No taping.  The Buttress is securely fastened with custom hardware to the existing plumbing.

• Front leg must be set snuggly against the floor.

• Front leg is set to government specs of 3/8 off the floor to ease in cleaning.

• To clean, housekeeping must get (1) down on hands and knees, (2) screw the leg upward 4 inches, (3) clean the floor, (4) then reverse the process before moving on to the next toilet.

• No kneeling {or cursing) by custodial staff. The Buttress' exclusive spring loaded hinge allows front leg to swing inward toward the wall as light pressure is applied with the mop. The hinge then auto-returns the vertical steel leg to resting position ready for the next 1000 LB + patron.  Win Win for everybody!

• Must caulk* around the entire carriage where it meets the toilet.
• Must wait 24 hours* before the toilet can be used.

• No caulking ever!  (How cool is that?!)
• No waiting. Ever. The Buttress can be used immediately after the last nut is tightened.  (Seriously. How cool is that?!)

• Made from plastic.

• The Buttress is made from low-carbon steel.  The white thermoset powder coating is baked at 400° to a strong enamel.



• Holds up to 1200 LBS.

• The Buttress easily exceeds 1200 LBS in weight capacity.  In fact, we have not found a weight limit yet.  

• Housekeeping keeps bumping them with their cleaning tools. They fall off. Housekeeping reattaches them.  After a few repeats of this process, housekeeping (frustratedly) throws them away.

• Installed ONCE to the existing plumbing with our hardware. Happy housekeepers.  Happier investors.

• Warranty?

• Full Lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects and workmanship.  (Kept clean, it should serve indefinitely.)

• Costs less than The Buttress.  

• The Buttress is the real value in Bariatric Toilet Support.  It never gets thrown away!
