Toilet Tank Lid Measurement Guide
Associated Plumbers has over 2,000 obsolete, used, vintage porcelain china and porcelain over cast iron toilet tank lids from manufacturers such as Standard, Kohler, Crane, Mansfield, Eljer, Briggs, Gerber, Orion, Kilgore, Case and others.
To properly match a lid to your toilet tank, we’ll need the broken tank lid or a template of the tank itself. Basically, get a large sheet of paper, lay it out on the top of the tank, and trace the outside of your tank. Cut out the template and ensure that it just sits on the top of the tank.
Bring the tank lid/template this template in to us at the below address.

Include any names and/or marks that may be on the inside of the tank or the broken lid. Due to the manufacturing process we cannot match lids with just the name/model number or measurements.
Price depends on scarcity, age, and condition, they start at $75.00 and go up. We mostly have Pre-1990 lids, and VERY FEW colored ones.
Always be sure to lay the toilet tank lid flat on the floor or stable table when checking your toilet.
Toilet tank-lids that are leaning against a wall have a tendency to fall or slip.
