What are the options for toilet cubicle configurations?

Taking on a washroom project requires a lot of thought regarding design as well as considering building regulations. When in the process of designing, it is important to make the most of the space you have, this might mean finding thesmallest possible fixtures and cubicle fittings. There is an extensive range of layouts and plans for arranged toilet cubicle configurations, so it is important to understand the options available to you. The available room and what layout is has affects the cubicle you will need.

Configurations For Your Washroom Project 

Whether you are designing commercial toilet cubicles for public buildings or washrooms for leisure centre, you can choose from the following full range of options. 

Island Cubicle 

If you have a minimum size room to fit a cubicle in, you may need to choose a single island toilet cubicle configuration. This kind of stand alone cubicle doesn’t have solid walls on either side and can have an outward opening door to allow for more room inside the cubicle. Instead, it has cubicle partitions on both sides and has standard toilet cubicle dimensions. 

Enclosed Cubicle Fittings

An enclosed toilet cubicle is similar to an island, in that it is a single cubicle without other cubicles to either side of it. However it has a different material option, instead of cubicle partitions it has solid walls on both sides. This is often the case in older bathrooms where the toilet cubicle might have been constructed in an alcove or other narrow space.

Inline Cubicle

An inline cubicle is usually set against a single wall on its side. It has a cubicle partition wall running along the same side as the door. This type of toilet cubicle configuration is particularly suitable for enlarged cubicles and can allow for more accessibility features including room for grab rails. 

Corner Cubicle

Many toilet cubicle configurations need to fit into a specific space and ensure compliance with building regulations in certain buildings. Often, this will have to take into account an existing wall layout, which means that it will need to fit into a particular corner. The corner cubicle layout configuration is where one end is a cubicle partition, and the other end is a solid wall. 

Between Walls

A longer row of toilet cubicles can be set up between two walls. This is similar to the enclosed configuration, but accommodates for a larger area which can be used in swimming pool areas and office locks. This needs one multiple partitions to go in between the cubicles, but does not need any partitions for the end walls.
