Bemis 26CHSLA 000 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Bemis Mayfair Benton seat loosen up over time like a standard plastic-nut seat?
The STA-TITE Seat Fastening System is what separates this one from a basic seat. It clamps to the bowl and holds tension, so the seat does not work loose and need re-tightening every few weeks. That matters most in high-traffic washrooms where a wobbling seat is a repeat service call. Installation is done from the top, no reaching up behind the bowl with a wrench.
2) Is a Whisper-Close slow-close toilet seat worth it for rental units and multi-family properties?
For units where tenants slam seats, yes. The Whisper Close hinge on the Benton lowers the seat and lid slowly instead of letting them drop, which removes the noise complaint between stacked units and the pinched-finger risk with kids in the unit. The trade-off is that a slow-close hinge cannot be flipped up and dropped shut fast, which some maintenance staff dislike during cleaning. If you want a seat that can be slammed and ignored, a standard non-slow-close hinge is the simpler choice.
3) Enameled wood or plastic toilet seat, which should I use in a commercial restroom?
The Benton is enameled wood with a high-gloss finish that resists chipping and scratching, and the wood core gives it the solid, non-flexing feel under weight that plastic seats do not have. Wood seats suit residential, hospitality, and light commercial washrooms. For heavy public restrooms with aggressive chemical cleaning and constant cycling, a solid plastic or polypropylene seat handles the abuse better because there is no finish layer to break through. Match the seat to the traffic, not to the price.
4) Are the hinges on the Mayfair 26CHSLA metal or plastic?
Metal, in a chrome finish. That is a real difference from the plastic hinge posts on entry-level seats, which are the usual failure point after a few hundred cycles. Chrome also matches the trim on most standard bath fittings, so it reads as intentional rather than as a replacement part.
5) Can one person install the Mayfair Benton seat without getting under the bowl?
Yes, it is a top-mount install. The STA-TITE hardware tightens from above the bowl, so there is no lying on the floor to hold a nut behind the china, and no removing the tank. For a property manager turning over multiple units, that is the difference between a five-minute swap and a knuckle-scraping job. A written installation guide ships with the seat.
6) What color does the Bemis Benton 26CHSLA come in?
White is the only color, ordered as 26CHSLA 000. It ships with color-matched bumpers, so the pads on the underside will not show as a contrasting dot against the bowl. If you are standardizing seats across a building, white against a white china bowl is the safe match on nearly every fixture.
7) How much clearance does the Benton seat add on top of the bowl rim?
The seat stack is 2.313 inches in height, so that is roughly what it adds above the china rim once mounted. Worth checking if you have a tight in-wall carrier or a tank lid that overhangs the rim, since the lid needs to swing clear of it.
