Useful tips...
- Bowl and drainer handing - with most of the inset sinks you will need to choose whether you want to have the drainer on the left or the right. The handing will be dictated by how your kitchen is laid out, and how the hole in your work top is positioned.
- Work tops and installation into these - These particluar inset glass sinks will fit into any worktop, be it laminate, solid wood, granite/composite stone and any arcylic corian materals.
- Sink dimensions - Will the sink you have chosen fit my kitchen? This is a very important question and one that if often overlooked. When buying a sink to replace an existing sink you need to take into consideration a few dimensions that the sink has. The first is the 'Cut-Out size' this is a very important one, this dimension refers to the size of the hole in your worktop the sink will fit into, when buying a sink you need to get one that is ideally the same or larger than your existing sink cut-out, also check the radius on the corners are compatible and won't leave a gapping hole, this will then allow you to modify the hole to make the sink fit. The next measurement to look out for is 'Minimum Cabinet size' this is the size of the unit that you sink fits over, the minimum size is there to take into consideration the sink bowl and any fittings that will make the size wider, like the overflow assembly or a second half bowl. Most of the single bowl sinks will fit into a 600mm base unit, if you have a 1.5 bowl sink for larger you may need a larger base unit, it is best to check the dimentions tab on the product pages to see what the minimum cabinet size for that sink is.
