Method
A practical method for choosing a kitchen sink and mixer: cabinet, cut-out, bowl, spout, pull-out spray, drainage and care.
01Start with the cabinet and worktop
Cabinet width, worktop thickness and installation type determine which sink can be used. Cut-out, reinforcement and access to the trap should be defined before ordering.
- Measure internal cabinet width and available depth
- Confirm installation type and cut-out constraints
- Keep access to valves and drainage
02Match the spout to the bowl
A mixer should cover the useful area of the bowl without obstructing a window, drying area or cleaning. Validate height and reach with a dimensioned drawing, not just an image.
- Check spout height and reach
- Identify the real need for a pull-out spray
- Confirm tap-hole position and operating space
03Anticipate daily use
Number of bowls, drainer position and finish depend on real routines: washing, preparation, large pans and expected care.
- Match bowl volume to actual use
- Choose a finish consistent with care expectations
- Plan sorting, filter and trap without compromising storage
