Installation Instructions for Wall-mount Sinks 1. In order to provide proper support for wall-mounting a sink, it's usually necessary to remove a small section of drywall so that the wall studs can be accessed to attach blocking between them. 2. Based on the sink’s dimensions and mounting height (usually 30”-33” above floor), decide where support will be needed. 3. Remove the drywall in that area and install 2-by-6 or 2-by-8 blocking between the wall studs. Then using 3 1/2” galvanized common nails, toenail the blocking to the studs and repair the drywall. 4. If the studs cannot be used...

Installation Instructions for Vessel Sinks 1. For most above-counter sinks a standard cutout of 4”-6” will work. The cutout has to be just large enough so that the drain assembly can be tightened directly onto the porcelain. 2. Temporarily position the sink over the cutout and make sure that it is aligned properly, leaving clearance for supply lines and drain and faucet assemblies. 3. Make marks on the countertop and sink as a guide for installation. 4. Install the drain and faucet assemblies onto the sink. 5. Turn the sink upside down and apply a small bead of silicone around the bottom...

Installation Instructions for Undermount Sinks 1. Prepare the countertop cutout according to the sink’s size. IMPORTANT! The cutout size should be at least 1/4” smaller on all sides than the inside dimensions of the sink. 2. Apply a small bead of silicone around the top edge of the washbasin, making sure to follow the directions on the label. 3. Place the countertop upside down and then position the washbasin over the cutout in the top. 4. If mounting clips or brackets provided, place each of the mounting clips around the edge of the sink. Then tighten each clip into place using the...

Installation Instructions for Self-rimming Sinks 1. Use a template to draw the cutout line on the countertop. If there is no template provided, then prepare your own template by placing the bowl upside down on a rigid sheet of paper and tracing around the outside edge. Then draw a second line ¾” inside that line, and use this as your cut line. Then make the cutout on the paper template and test the fit on the sink. 2. If the prepared template fits well with the sink, trace the cutout on the countetop in the desiredlocation and perform the cutout. 2. If the faucet is to be installed onto the...
