Easi-Plan Simplifies Bathroom Tiling Simplifying the job of tiling, the EasiPlan range of concealed installation frames from Abacus Manufacturing Group allows all aspects of sanitaryware and brassware - including WCs, basins and bidets - to be incorporated to create stylish bathrooms without any exposed pipes or awkward pipe boxing. To make the installation of the cabinets as simple as possible, installation frames are available. These may be installed whilst building the void wall and create a tile guide in order to create an exact size opening for the cabinet. The cabinet is then easily fitted at the final stage of the bathroom installation. The ultra-flexible range of Easi-Plan frames removes the margin for error during installation and speeds the process without compromising quality. Once in place, the hidden pre-wall fixing system is easily boarded out to provide a sound and level surface onto which to tile with the minimum preparation. Easi-Plan accessories include a 12mm thick waterproof tileable front panel that can be cut to size on site. The range of WC frames, which are weight-tested to 400kg and incorporate the benefits of excellent sound deadening and an easy service mechanical flushing system, includes a concealed slimline frame just 9cm in depth. This is available with a slimline frame tileable box. Voids created by the Easi-Plan frame provide the option of incorporating recessed natural timber cabinets from Abacus Manufacturing Group’s bathroom range to maximise storage space within the bathroom. Relevant Easi-Plan products comply with current regulations and carry a 10-year guarantee. 22 For further information on Abacus Manufacturing Group, please visit www.abacusdirect.co.uk or call 0845 8 50 50 40.
