Kitchen Sink for 30' sink cabinet

13 years ago

The rest of my kitchen cabinet layout works MUCH better with a 30" sink cabinet. So I want to confirm that I can fit the sink I picked out into a 30" cabinet.

I plan to use Kraftmaid of Woodmark cabinets with granite countertops, and stainless steel undermount sink with 2 unequal size basins. Left and right of sink cabinet will be a dishwasher and a skinny tray cabinet.

I found a VIGO 2 basin sink (VG3021l).

-18 gauge steel, 304 nickel

Are the Vigo sinks good quality?

-Total depth with flanges 20.75, w/out flanges 18.75

-Total width with flanges is 29.5

-Assumed Width w/out flanges should be around 27.5

Questions:

I've assumed that a 30" sink cabinet should have interior width of around 29."

-Correct?

I assume I will have to cut supports beams in cabinet top to fit that sink width.

-Should I expect those cuts to have any significant impact on cabinet's integrity?

-Will professional granite counter installers have enough room to install the sink?

-Responses to a similar post stated concerns that the sink could never be replaced without removing the counters. Can the granite counters be installed w/out gluing them to the cabinets to allow for easier removal if sink ever had to be replaced?

Are there any other issues I should worry about?
