Apron sink/Size of sink base question
Comments (11)First question: what kind of apron-front sink? Some are meant to sit atop a cabinet that's been cut down to recieve the sink. That'd be like the stainless steel or copper ones, and maybe some fireclay sinks with more regular rectangular shape. There's a thread on here (I think bichonlover started it) where Poorowner and I responded with pictures about our stainless apron front sink installations. Here's a picture of my sink. It's in a same-size cabinet with two dishwasher panels on either side. You could get away with not using the dw panels, but I needed them to deal with a spacing issue, and to cut down on dw noise. Some (and I'm thinking about the handmade Shaw's and other fireclay ones) are meant to go into an apron-front cabinet that's had a cutout in the blank apron front to receive the sink. Thus the cabinet has to be wide enough to hold the sink and still have some space on either side of the sink for the cutout. I think I've seen Shaw's owners with 33" sinks in a 36" cabinet, and the like....See MoreApron sink question
Comments (12)Technically, my stainless, apron front is a 30" sink in a 30" cab. But, it depends on the measurements the company is using. My internal bowl width is 27" which seems to be pretty standard of 3" less interior width then the base cab size. People do make alterations to cabinets to fit a sink into a smaller cabinet. There are some here on GW that think that is a bad idea. I am not a DIY'er and my cabinet maker insisted on following company specs. If you also plan to follow specs, all you need to do is find sinks that you like and the spec sheet should tell you the appropriate size cabinet. Some style of apron front require a larger cabinet with a smaller bowl size due to a large apron, so that is something to consider with the style....See MoreKohler short apron farmhouse sink size?
Comments (8)click on the link In that other comment. it's for the Kohler at home depot. it's self rimming. (meaning, "requires only a simple rough cut, overlapping the cabinet face" ) Here's a 33" one: https://www.build.com/kohler-k-5826/s904362?uid=2276018&source=gg-gba-pla_2276018!c1707673104!a69500366874!dc!ng&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIq9jX6o7d6QIV0hx9Ch2DRgIlEAQYASABEgIXz_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds as for size, here are some others: K-5826-0 Whitehaven Self-Trimming 32-1/2" L x 21-9/16" W x 9-5/8" Under-Mount Single-Bowl Sink with Short Apron K-6426-0 Whitehaven 35.5" L x 21.56" W Double-Bowl Kitchen Sink with Short Apron K-3942-1-NA Vault Top-Mount Single-Bowl Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink with Shortened Apron-Front for 36"Cabinet...See MoreRecommendations on farmhouse/apron sink and size
Comments (9)Definitely make sure a sink that large leaves room for everything else you will want on that run of cabinets. I had planned on getting one that big, but then I wouldn’t have room for a vertical sheet pan cupboard next to the dishwasher. Also I am firmly on team ”no grid.” I am baffled how anyone could possibly like having one of those. It’s in our rental now where we’re living during the remodel, and it’s the scourge of my existence. I don’t know if some people just don’t use their garbage disposals as much? But strands of spaghetti and salad and everything else getting caught in the grates is gross to deal with. Plus underneath gets all gunky and stained rather quickly....See MoreFlo Mangan
