Remove the doors and/or drawers to provide access to the
inside rear wall of the cabinet (note that all hinges are quick
release for easy removal).
For wall hung vanities
- mark the position of the top of the
vanity. The work surface would typically be set at a height
of 850mm to 900mm. If the top (basin) is packed separately
deduct the thickness of the top from the finished height to
determine the correct height for the top of the cabinet.
Drill holes for plumbing in the back panel or base of the
cabinet with an appropriate sized hole saw.
WARNING :
Do not secure the unit to the wall until the vanity
is sitting level, plumb and square. Use suitable packing to
achieve this if the wall cannot be aligned.
Position unit and check that it is sitting level, plumb and
square.
Screw Fixing : For wall hung vanities.
Fixings must be into solid timber and must be no more than
50mm from each side of the cabinet.
The installer must provide additional fixing points evenly
spread at approximately 250mm centres along the top of
the back panel.
Floor standing vanities
should, likewise, be checked for
sitting level, plumb and square and suitably packed to
achieve this.
Screw fix to the wall to secure either through the back rail
or back panel.
WALL HUNG & FLOOR STANDING FURNITURE
Acrylic & Mineral Cast Tops
If the top is not attached to the cabinet, fit the taps and
waste then glue it to the top of the cabinet with a continuous
bead of Expandite SB adhesive, Panel Bond or something
similar.
Ceramic & Ceramic Quartz Tops
During the complex manufacturing process ceramic tops
shrink considerably and can be slightly uneven.
It is
recommended that the top be fixed to the cabinet with
a continuous bead of silicone so the top will not rock or
move
.
Apply the silicone to the top edges of the cabinet
then postion the top.
If the cabinet is wall hung then the
ceramic top should
also be fixed to the solid timber in the
wall
with the fasteners packed with the top.
NOTE :
Not all ceramic tops are designed to be wall fixed.
