Cistern Lever (Doc M)

This Doc M Cistern Lever is an extended flush lever for accessible toilets, with a long handle that's easy to push down for people with limited grip or reduced strength.

What is Doc M? Doc M refers to the building regulations section that covers access to and use of buildings, including accessible toilets. A Doc M toilet is designed so that people with disabilities, wheelchair users and older users can use it safely and independently. Every part of the layout matters, including the flush.

A standard push button or short lever can be hard to operate for someone with arthritis, a weak grip or limited hand movement. A Doc M cistern lever has a longer handle, so it can be pressed down with an open hand, a wrist or a forearm, rather than gripped or pinched. It's usually fitted on the side of the cistern that faces the open transfer space beside the toilet.

Where it's used:

• Accessible toilets in offices, schools, shops and public buildings
• Assisted bathrooms in care homes and healthcare settings
• Homes adapted for older or less mobile family members

Combine it with grab rails, a raised-height toilet and a back rest to create a safer, more accessible bathroom.
