Before ordering, measuring the fixing centres and checking whether access beneath the pan is realistic will settle top-fix versus bottom-fix and the correct spacing in one go. via Plumb2U stocks both top-fix and bottom-fix hinge sets and soft-close spares across the common fixing centres, at trade prices, so plumbers replacing seats across several jobs a week can order to the measurement rather than to a guess. As a plumbers merchants stocking both fixing types in depth, Plumb2U's seat spares range covers most of what a trade buyer will meet on a typical round.
Locating the access plate is the first practical step, and it is not always where it looks like it should be. Some concealed frames put the service access behind the flush plate itself, which simply hinges or unclips forward once the buttons are removed, while others use a separate panel elsewhere on the same wall or in an adjoining space such as an airing cupboard. Getting this wrong before checking the frame manufacturer's layout wastes time working into a wall that did not need opening.

The practical test is simple: add a few drops of food colouring to the cistern water and wait without flushing. Colour appearing in the pan points to the flush valve or siphon. A water level that keeps rising past where it should sit points to the fill valve. Checking both takes two minutes and saves a second visit.
Noise is a real factor when deciding between the two. A side-entry valve introducing water above the surface tends to produce more splash and a higher-pitched fill sound, which shows up as a complaint on quieter properties such as flats with shared walls. Bottom-entry valves that fill below the surface are noticeably quieter, and swapping a noisy side-entry unit for a bottom-entry equivalent is a common upgrade even where nothing has technically failed.
Measuring before ordering saves a return trip: the thread diameter of the existing lever body, the distance from the lever mounting to the flush valve connection point, and whether the arm needs to sit above or below the water line all affect which replacement will actually fit. A lever bought to the wrong thread size will not seal against the cistern wall, however well the rest of the job goes.
