TILE-IN INSTALLATION
1. This sink is designed for installation 
flush with or slightly lower than the surrounding 
tile. 
2. Measure the sink apron and cabinet opening 
to make sure sink apron will fit into cabinet 
opening. If necessary, sand opening or add 
wood filler strips.
3. Assemble faucet according to manufacturer’s 
directions. 
4. Place a thin layer of sealant at each corner of 
the supporting frame where it will contact the 
sink.
5. Gently position the sink within the frame, 
placing the sink in the center of the cabinet.
UNDERCOUNTER INSTALLATION
1. The supporting frame should be positioned so that the top of the 
sink rim (when placed inside the cabinet) is level and flush with 
the top surface of the cabinet perimeter support or underlayment 
at the cut out area.
2. Measure sink apron and cabinet opening to make sure sink 
apron will fit into cabinet opening. If necessary, sand opening or 
add wood filler strips.
3. Assemble faucet according to manufacturer’s directions.
4. Place a thin layer of sealant at each corner of the supporting 
frame where it will contact the sink.
5. Gently position the sink within the frame, placing the sink in the 
center of the cabinet.
6. Make sure the sink rim is level and flush with the cabinet 
perimeter. Adjust or shim between the sink and the support if 
needed to obtain proper fit. The top of the sink rim must be flush 
with the top of the cabinet perimeter in order to obtain proper 
contact with the underside of the counter top.
7. Assemble the strainer or garbage disposal to the sink according 
to the manufacturers directions.
8. Using sealant between the sink and the cabinet is optional and 
up to the buyers discretion.

* The cabinet and supporting
framework should be reinforced to
hold up to 300 lbs securely once
the sink is installed. Typically this
involves a timber supporting frame
with 3/4” plywood deck or a brick
plynth.
