Trash pullout under sink?
Comments (16)Thanks so much for all your ideas and encouragement. I really think a pullout will work in my space and make good use of my sink base which might otherwise not be very functional. I am doing Ikea cabinets right now in my laundry room and am planning to try a pullout trash bin under my sink there, so I will have experience with Ikea's components before I start my kitchen. The handles I chose for my Ikea cabinets in the laundry are simple pulls that fit over the edge of the door and are screwed into the inside of the door. I was planning to center them on the top edge of the cabinet door. They may work for my kitchen as well, if I go with stainless, contemporary style pulls for the rest of the cabinets. Here is a link that might be useful: Here's the Ikea handle...See MoreCrazy or Feasible? Trash Pull-Outs Under Sink???
Comments (19)The only reason I didn't do pullouts was my sink is 10 inches deep and undermounted. The larger bins I wanted would have been right under the sink if on a pullout platform. I decided to have them freestanding and be able to put something in them without moving them rather than have stuff possibly rub on the bottom of the sink as it got full. There is a disposal, instant hot tank, never MT and large soap bottle, two baskets of cleaning supplies and two DW connections under there as well as trash and recycling. Works for me....See MoreLocation of Tapmaster / Trash Foot Pedal / Prep Sink
Comments (4)oldbat2be, we put our tapmaster only on our bigger island sink, not the "cleanup" sink. I guess it might be our "prep" sink even though it's bigger than the other sink. I don't know if we'll miss it on the other sink since our kitchen isn't done yet, but you could always add it later as I don't think it's too hard to retrofit. Fitting all that stuff I would think might be a challenge. We have a farmhouse sink and our plumber was worried about fitting an instant hot, a water chiller, a tapmaster and a garbage disposal under there in a 36" wide cabinet. We gained a few inches b/c we made our island taller (unrelated reasons) but they still said it was a lot to cram under there. Are you using the Hafele foot pedal for your trash? You know it's only for frameless cabinets right? My cabinet maker had to modify it to work w/ our non-frameless ones. Not sure how he is doing it, but it is costing us more than 1 hr. of his time in the quote. I believe (but am not certain) that there was also a comment that the instructions came only in German! ICFgreen, Brizio (I believe) also makes a faucet like the Touch. We originally thought of using the touch but it does not go w/ our kitchen at all. The good thing about the tapmaster is you can use any faucet you want....See Moreunder sink trash pull out
Comments (13)I'm mostly looking for something side mounted. Thought I could have that set up with the second container for extra garbage bags.......I plan to use a bathroom wastebasket under the farm sink. Bathroom wastebaskets are pretty small but it won't be a big deal to take it out every day or two. That's likely all that will fit?? Anyone know? If you have a farm sink, can you measure the door height for me? Maybe I will have to put it somewhere else. plllog, if I search for Blum hardware I might find this? I did see one at rev-a-shelf for a hundred bucks. I'm thinking I can make one for a lot less. Unless the drawer slides are more than I think. It does feel good to be down to garbage placement and light fixture refurbishers though!I remember when floor plan #1 looked good. Now I am on either #5 or #6....See Morezzackey
