What size should the hole in the granite countertop be?

Excellent question because the instructions do not say and Pegasus customer service does not know. I drilled mine at 1.75 in and it seemed to be perfect.

A plumber installed this for me to replace an existing faucet, so Im guessing it is a standard size hole for a one hole faucet...sorry I couldn't be more exact...

Gosh, don't really have a hole measurement for you since things are long buttoned up by now, sorry. I can say that the sink to which it was installed was a brand-new standard Kohler double sink (old-school style with a hoody-ring to the counter) with 5 holes in it for these sort of accessories. Maybe the suppliers of the Kraus (or your diligent www-research) might yield what size holes they fit. You could also hop down to your local HomeDepot and measure just-about any double kitchen sink you find there, since this thing was undoubtedly designed to fit most modern sinks and i'm thinking these holes are by now an industry standard size. That said, the upper and lower washers/escutcheons/seal rings that come with the Kraus are fairly oversized such that they'd tolerate a bit of undersize or oversizings. Good luck!

Hi Nancy, The three holes on the countertop come pre-drilled from our manufacturer, so we are unable to customize your order. Thank you! Kitchen Bath Collection

I would start out with a hole 7/8 inch wide and 13/4 inch high. The intent is to make the hole rather a little too small and adjust it with a file then make it too big too fast. Good luck.

I had 2 holes placed in my granite countertops. 1 for the pull out faucet and 1 for soap. It looks awesome. I love this sink.

Hi Kate, All our countertops come pre-drilled with three holes for a standard 8" faucet spread. Thank you. Kitchen Bath Collection

As I recall, the width at the flange is a little more than 18 inches. It comes with a template for cutting the hole in the countertop, but I never saw a sketch of the dimensions.

the sink is 5 3/4 " -- but remember that you can "sink" it into the countertop to be whatever height you want. I'm sinking mine into granite so that there will be about 4" of the sink above the countertop. My granite supplier suggested this so that the sink doesn't look like it's sitting on top of the granite but it is actually part of it.

Assuming the hole(s) in the granite is only slightly larger than the water lines and threaded rod extending be;low the faucet, access the retaining nut under the counter; loosen it and the metal spacers above it or take them off to start completely over. Refit the faucet vertically using the escutcheon and O-ring or 3-Hole Deck Plate on top of the counter. Under the counter: place the metal spacers around the 2-water lines and arrange them so they bear on as much of the underside of the counter below the base of the faucet as possible - space them evenly. Tighten the retaining nut to keep them there.

So it depends if you undermount or top mount it (drop-in). If you undermount it you'll have drill a hole in the counter-top as indicated by the faucet you purchase.

P.S. you didn't say what the counter-top material was. In most cases some additional trimming may be needed. The document I referred you to should have the Cut-out dimensions needed on it. If you have Granite, Quartz or stone/tile, it can be critical. If it's laminate or Corian solid surface type, it can be easily trimmed. Sounds like you may need a professional installer.

It was the standard size hole that came in my granite. A single whole is how my house was made. This is the nicest faucet I've owned, my wife loves it.

They make an under mount, part number 995-u-0. The holes will be drilled in the sink and not the granite for that application. It does not come drilled so but it's a very easy material to drill through. The 995-0 is an above mount and looks very nice. Either way I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Our sink is installed in a 24" cabinet depth. The sink is beautiful. Our only concern -we cut our granite to match the unusual shape of the sink. We have heard from others that the sink may break or fail over time. We actually considered buying an extra sink to keep in case this one ever fails because there is no way any other sink would fit the shape of the granite.

The shaft measures about 3.5 inches below our countertop, which is 1 inch thick granite. So total shaft length about 4.5 inches. Will be close, but should be okay.

Unfortunately I don't think you'll be able to put it in existing counter top unless the counter can be removed/cut. It's an under mount sink. I put it in when I had granite installed in my kitchen and they had to cut the granite to fit the sink and focet holes. It's an amazing sink I absolutely love it! Hope you can work it out!

Hi there! I had my granite guy install it and I can't remember what it was exactly but it measures about 3.5 inches at its biggest point. We installed it on our kitchen bar. It's been a great, great investment!
