Will a Farmhouse Sink fit in an Ikea Akrum 30" Sink Cabinet?
Comments (15)Yes, I realize that. I meant here on the Houzz site - or perhaps on the IKEA Hacker's site. It would be great to see exactly how to adjust the non-apron sink cabinet to fit an apron sink. We have to do it nonetheless, so I might take pictures and post if I can't find anything else. Our sink is not as heavy as the 30" sink inserted into into a 30" cabinet, so the framing requirements should not be as stringent. Plus, the methodology there was to combine two cabinets together....See Morewrong counter edge for my farmhouse sink
Comments (19)i would say you got lucky! you got the upgraded edge for free (looks great btw) and they are giving you $500?! and your seam is awesome! my fabricator undermounted my sink without asking and then tried to charge me for the cut out. they "waived" the cut out fee but no extra recompense was offered. they also cut a piece too short and when they replaced it, i realized that one counter has a 3/4" overhang and the other has a 1" overhang:( i would say you should not mess with it and happily spend the money!...See MoreKohler Gilford farmhouse sink vs Gilford "scrub-up/plaster sink"?
Comments (14)The 12727 has deck holes that are a 4" apart which means only a very small faucet mounting possibility. The 12700 has an 8" spread (more normal). The 12700 has a 3-5/8" drain; the 12787 has a 2-1/4" drain. The 12787 is designed to be installed on brackets and only comes in white. Installed they will not look exactly the same due to the faucet restrictions and mounting styles. If you plan to mount the utility sink on a cabinet vs brackets I would call Kohler and ask if that's possible. The notes specify installation instructions....See Morekitchen sink - SS drop in, SS apron front, or white farmhouse sink?
Comments (5)Do you have to do a drop in? I would do an undermount, much nicer look. I use Le Creuset and other cast iron all the time, my SS sink came with a grid at the bottom, it's the best!! It really protects the sink from dishes and cookware. I had a farm sink previously and liked that one also, this time I wanted a more contemporary look and opted for a large SS undermount....See Morefarmhousebound
