I think I have a standard counter with current sink dropped in over a double door cabinet. How much space do I need for an undermount installation?

i had an older sink that was installed above the counter, went to an undermount and as long as the sinks are the same size it shouldn't be a problem. I do not have any of the small pull down door that holds a dish cloth or other small items so did not have to deal with that. I would only install an undercounter mount sink from now on. I do not know if you need any extra supports for your undermount or not. I also had a garbage disposer installed at the same time.

Good afternoon! You need a 33" cabinet. That means you need 33" side to side x 21" front to back of clear space to allow for the sink and mounting hardware. Hope this helps!

No this will require more support and 2x4's will need to be placed under it since it is an under mount sink.The 9 inch depth may require some change also.Good luck it is a great sink. If you are having granite counter tops the edge should extend to the edge of the sink to avoid water drainage over the front.That is a problem that we have and we have to be very carefull with some the water does not get on the cabinet.If you have any more questions just ask.Pam

Probably not. If the cabinet is 15" once you subtract the thickness of the material forming the side walls (.5"ea? .75"ea) your interior dimension of the cabinet might be 13.5"-14". Don't forget that under mount sinks have brackets that attach to the bottom side of the countertop and require an additional 1" of clearance around the sink....so you need about 15 5/8" to mount it. There are ways to mount it without the supplied bracket, that's another conversation.

The confined space of being under my sink was more of a hassel than the actual mounting. The instructions are fairly straight forward, and I think most people could install it without a problem. I wouldn't imagine you would need a plumber.

Don't think this sink is applicable for over the top counter installations-plenty of other sinks available-why take a chance?

A 36" cabinet is only needed if you want to be able to remove the sink without disturbing the counter top. It can be installed in a narrower cabinet by sandwiching it between the counter top and the plywood underlay. That worked fine for us - our cabinet is only 32 inches. The only way we can get it out someday would be to remove our quartz counter top.

We are installing this sink in a very tiny half bath. The sink hasn't been installed yet because the bathroom is still being renovated. I'm sure if you have enough space you can build a custom cabinet beneath it. Good luck.

The sink should fit. I like that it is above the counter so that I can have drawers.

I believe this is an undermount sink. We installed it under the granite countertop.

It is a drop-in sink. Not sure that it would work as a an undermount sink. The rim is somewhat cupped, and not really suited to any other application.

It should fit quite well as an undermount. I have a faucet similar to the one you are describing, along with an RO water faucet and soap dispenser. I really enjoy this sink, as it is deep and has enough room to fit large pots or pans inside. My only advice if you care about aesthetics a lot would be to purchase the metal grate sold by Vigo that rests in the bottom of the sink and protects it from scratches. Also, due to the sharp edged design, you have to keep the corners clean or grime will accumulate there (it is easy to clean with a brush, but worth mentioning). I get lots of compliments on this sink for its size and versatility. It should fit quite well as an undermount.

This is an undermount sink. It is intended to be mounted under your counters. Faucets are mounted directly on to your countertops behind the sink. Make sure your countertops are wide enough to drill holes behind the sink's space.

Hi: If you are using a vessel sink, it is a good idea to use the mounting ring. It keeps the sink off the counter top, it is aesthetically pleasing and it helps to clean under the sink. The vessel sink sits on top of the mounting ring. As far as an overflow is concerned, you would use a drain with overflow only if your sink has an overflow. It depends entirely on the type of sink you are using. Usually, vessel sinks do not have an overflow, whereas under mount and drop in sinks do. So I suggest you check your sink. Hope this helps. I will add that this is a very good quality drain. I have two in my house. Thanks. Hi: If you are using a vessel sink, it is a good idea to use the mounting ring.

I had mine installed as under mount, and I don't think you can over mount it. To be safe, I asked the installer to modify the base cabinet and build support for the sink to sit on.

I don't know the cabinet requirements as it does not state on the sink. We have ours installed in a 21" wide sink base cabinet, 18 might be too small. I don't know if it came with mounting clips as my counter installer took care of sink installation. It does not come with the drain assembly. It's a nice sink.
