    Most concealed cisterns I have seen have a push button type flushing mechanism, some have a water saving small flush either in the same button or elase a separate one.

    Just wondering if there are any requirements to have an actual handle and if so anyone know wherer I can get one.

    Any disabled toilets I have seen are all flush handles

    I need the extra space the concealed one gives but dont have room to 'box-in' a conventional cistern
    Thanks

    in the process of fitting a concealed cistern. mine came with a frame which holds the cistern and has mountings for the toilet.....its the wall hung type.most good bathroom places could get you a concelaed cistern but not sure about the type with a conventional flush, but they do exist.:)

    There is a concealed cistern available with a handle alright ,its just plain black plastic and very shallow in depth with a couple of brackets to hold it up.

    I can't remember where we got them from ,best to try davies or such like.
