Kitchen Sink Guide

A kitchen sink must fit the cabinet, benchtop and daily workflow. Choose bowl configuration and installation style before the benchtop is ordered or cut.

Choose the right type

• Single and double bowls balance washing space, separation and cabinet capacity.
• Drainer, bar and farmhouse sinks change the benchtop layout and may require dedicated cabinetry.
• Top-mount, undermount and flush-mount installations have different cut-out, support and sealing needs.

Measure before you order

Record the finished dimensions and compare them with the product drawing. Check:

• Internal cabinet width, depth and structural rails
• Overall sink size and required cut-out
• Bowl depth and clearance above drawers, bins and plumbing
• Tap, filter, soap dispenser and waste positions

Check compatibility and inclusions

• Confirm the benchtop material supports the installation method
• Check included wastes, clips, templates and accessories
• Coordinate tap reach and swivel area with the bowl
• Confirm appliance, cabinet and plumbing clearances before fabrication

Product inclusions and installation requirements vary. Use the individual product page and supplied documentation as the final reference. If information is missing, contact our team before ordering.

Care and maintenance

Rinse and dry the sink regularly, clean in the direction recommended for the material and avoid prolonged contact with harsh chemicals or metal debris.

Frequently asked questions

What cabinet size do I need?

Use the sink specification and allow for clips, bowls, plumbing and cabinet construction—not only the external width.

Can every sink be undermounted?

No. The sink design and benchtop material must both support that installation.

Are wastes and accessories included?

Inclusions vary. Check the product listing before ordering.
