Cloakroom Sink Unit - A Key Thing to Note
If you are looking to install a cloakroom sink in your shower/ basin area, I will try to explain some things you should know before starting the job. There are several variations of cloakroom sink units, but the main ones are the same. Typically, a small basin with a faucet and tap (usually two) with a small shelf in the front. The basin is usually a high-quality acrylic material with the most common colours being black, white and chrome. Many cloakroom sinks also have a provision for "bespoke" or custom-made products which is what this article is about.
Here is the basic layout of what is needed:
Small cloakroom sink unit, taps and unit attached. Overall dimensions, this should give you room for almost any basin or shower cubicle. The key thing to remember is to make sure the basin is high enough by at least 6 inches, otherwise, it will be hard to get water in, and if it is low it will be harder to wash off soap and shampoo in. Overall measurement, again, this should give you about half the size of the unit. Two-door unit, tap and faucet separately, the door opens on one side, the faucet on the other side.
The first thing to do is to find out which type of cloakroom basin and cloakroom sink you need for your needs. If you do not have these, then do not worry, as most are relatively easy to find. A lot of retailers sell them both as separate pieces. The only primary consideration that will need to be addressed is how much room you have available and if the unit will fit into it. Usually, cloakroom units are relatively small, so unless you are remodelling an existing bathroom, it will probably be best to stick to the standard sizes unless you really want a really unusual shaped basin.
