I know this is an old thread, but I faced the same issue: surface mounted medicine cabinet 4 7/8" deep. I found a Kohler Tone 3-light vanity fixture Model #31770-SCO3- BNL (brushed nickel one) that was perfect. It extends 10 3/4 inch out, but it's only 6 inches high. It was beautiful, but after ordering from Lowe's, it went from delivery 6/12 to delayed to out of stock. Damnitall. Whoever reads this...it will be available in October, 2023. I talked to a Lamps Plus clerk who said the entire bulb must fully extend out past the medicine cabinet to avoid all shadow. This Kohler model does that. I had to totally switch gears to a fixture that pointed up. I hope it will work to provide enough light. I'm not as thrilled about it, but you have to be practical to get the bathroom remodeled in time. I hope this is helpful. Good luck to all who face this issue!

Hi, My builder recommended a cabinetmaker who made my vanity and matching recessed medicine cabinets. This guy is marvelous, and he is now making me built in bookshelves and filing for my office, and will likely make my kitchen island, and radiator covers etc etc etc. He is not expensive, but does beautiful work. Perhaps your builder can recommend someone good in your area? My medicine cabinets are nothing fancy - just a hinged door with glass shelves sitting on adjustable pins inside, but fine for my use.

I've seen his and her toilets facing each other in a bathroom. On platforms. I could never quite figure out whether they just wanted their very own and were never in the bathroom at the same time or whether there was something else going on. In any case, I never asked. I kind of see the point of something that is accessible on both sides, actually you would only need one of a number of things since it would be available to both bathrooms. I actually played with this idea briefly because the medicine cabinet in the hall bathroom is in the 6" deep by 20" wide stud cavity over the in-wall-tank toilet for the ensuite bathroom. So I did think...what if this was accessible from both sides? And in a house with no kids, I doubt anyone would use it to poke through into the other room or anything. And I have heard people in this house use the bathroom. I hear people using the bathroom at work. People go to the bathroom. Maybe you are going to hear it. I dunno. I try to be as quiet as possible, but I am not really fooling anyone about what's going on in there if they don't hear anything? Here is why I decided it would not work. When I put things in a shallow cabinet I tend to want to push them to the back so they don't fall out when I open the door the next time. Well in a double sided cabinet there is no back, you can't lean anything against the back, because it's the front in the opposite bathroom and it will fall out. So you would have to make sure everything was in the center. That's the big reason I passed.

You have to think on the scale of a real-life homeowner, not a designer of high-end homes (unless this is a high-end home!). When things are tight, you look for solutions! If 58" is too tight for two sinks, look at a trench sink - a long skinny sink with a faucet on either end that serves two people. This is the concept, but like so much stuff on Houzz it is marginally useful because whoever posted it just slapped it up without dimensions. In this kind of a get-up, WHERE to center two medicine cabinets becomes the issue, so a single mirror wall does seem to look better. In this example, designer Kelly Gardner does tell us all about her project, which seems only the right thing to do if a designer is getting advertising by posting it here for us to see! She says, " kelley gardner The sink is 34" and the entire width of space is 48". The space between the faucets is roughly 22"Now, doesn't this look like something you could do in your 58" space? Ask your contractor if it is too late for wall-mount faucets (it probably is). Your sink would have 5" more counter on each side. Come to think of it, this may be a shallow counter (maybe they had a space issue) and with a 22" deep counter you may have plenty of room for a faucet. Kelly says that this sink is from Lacava, so if you like this look, review their catalog online, then find a source to buy one. My original bathroom plan was to get a Kohler Brockway sink. Funky, old fashioned and really splash-happy! The Brockway has a backsplash and the whole sink is 18" deep, so in a 22" counter, you can make a little shelf between the backsplash and the wall. The sink has a big round belly that begs to be pulled forward out of the cabinet, and if you do that, you can have a deeper shelf behind the splash. Here are couple of installations.First, this is the smallest Brockway, the 3 ft (36"). It comes in 4ft with two faucets, too. Here, they mounted it against the wall in order to have a bit of counter in front of it, instead of pulling it forward and putting a shelf behind it. Also an excellent choice. This is one of my favorite installations and it also gives you ideas of what you can do with mirrors and cabinets. It is a cottage look, though. This is the "belly exposed" look, where pulling the sink forward gives you room for a shelf behind it. I can't really see a shelf here, but you can see where it would go, where the sink top ends. Just make a shelf behind the sink that fills the space between the sink and the wall. If you have stuff on it, you cannot open the doors of the cabinets here, which is a good reason to leave it off, I suppose! This is the 4 ft model, which is too large for you, giving you only 5" on each side for counter. You should go with the 3 ft, giving you 11" on each side for counter. Wetstyle, from Canada, has many trough sinks. Here are some that sit on top of the counter, just in case the cabinet you ordered cannot take a sunken one.This the the Wetstyle Ove sink in the 48 x 15" size. It is only 4" deep, so you have to be careful to chose a faucet that will not splash the water out. But it gives you rounded corners, lots of space in front or back of it in a 22" deep counter, and you each get 5" on each side to have to set things down. What is even better about this picture is the mirror design. See it? A mirror is inset into the wall cavity, giving you a small ledge to set things on as you are getting ready. It looks like the side mirrors could be small med cabs, if they are not. What a smart design for your small space! Click on the photo to enlarge it and see the details.

Click on "more info" to get a version with the price tags, where you can click on the tag to get a close-up of the sink. Being only 15" front-to-back, there is lots of room for faucets behind it. If you do a shelf in front of a recessed mirror, you may get away with a 4 ft long sink - especially if it gives you space in front or back to set things down. Check out Lacava, Nameeks, and Duravit and you will see many more sinks that sit on top of the counter that are long enough to have two faucets. There may also be some that are "semi-recessed," which means that there is some sink below the counter, too, giving more depth.
