The number one reason why a toilet handle breaks is because it is not installed properly. It’s important that you make sure that the wall mount is securely fastened to the wall so that it doesn’t slip or cause structural damage. If you are buying a new toilet, you need to ensure that it comes with a wall mount already installed. If your toilet has a wall mount but it is not installed properly or the mounting screws are loose, you need to take care of this before installing the toilet handle. Make sure that you tighten the screws properly to prevent any further loosening.
Another important factor to consider is whether or not the flushing mechanism is located outside the tank. If the flushing mechanism is located outside the tank, then the handle would fall apart after a few years of use. This is more common in older models of toilets. And an important factor to consider is whether or not you want to buy a toilet leveror a pull-down wand handle. A pulldown wand handle usually doesn’t cost much more, but isn’t as durable as the lever. Generally, if you have an old, heavy-duty toilet and the wall mount is made of metal, you should go for a pull-down wand handle. If your toilet is older or is made of plastic, then you should go for a toilet lever.
