Installation Guide

FARMHOUSE & APRON SINKS
Installation Options
With appropriate planning, farmhouse/apron sinks may be installed several different ways.
The sink ... the base cabinet unit ... and the countertop ... must be selected with a specific installation in mind.
Farmhouse/apron sinks may be installed as:
1. Undermount sinks (rim of the sink is below the countertop)
2. Built-up sinks (rim of the sink is raised above the countertop)
Built-up sinks may be installed with up to 1 1/2" of the side of the sink exposed
(above the top surface of the counter top).
Farmhouse/apron sinks may also be installed with the front corners of the apron flush to adjacent cabinets, or
alternatively, the front corners of the apron may extend out beyond the face of adjacent cabinets by as much as 1/2".
We would caution you to make allowance for installation of the faucet. Position the sink so that there is enough
clearance behind the sink to allow for a back-splash if applicable, and full mobility of the faucet lever.
The farmhouse/apron sink has a 3/4" flange on the underside of the apron that will support the unit.
Dab silicone to the base cabinet frame that will contact the sink flange.
Then position the unit either flush with the front face of the cabinet, or extend the unit up to 1/2" beyond the front face
of the cabinet.
