Types of kitchen and bathroom sinks

You can mount any sink model yourself. A large assortment allows you to choose exactly the design that is most suitable for your interior and which will be convenient and comfortable to use.

Main types of shells:

1. Invoices. This type of washbasin is the easiest to attach, as it is fixed to the countertop, protruding slightly above its surface.
2. Hanging (console) sinks are hung on the wall. It is best to secure the sink using brackets; a cabinet or countertop is not needed here. This type also includes washbasins on a pedestal, the so-called tulips.
3. The mortise ones are mounted into the countertop; sealing the seam is required; the fastening itself is carried out from the bottom of the washbasin bowl.
4. Furniture washbasins are supplied complete with furniture (kitchen or bathroom); they are mounted on a special cabinet or stand or tabletop.

Installation of a sink on a cabinet

Sink diagram with dimensions.

A sink on a cabinet fits perfectly into almost any interior; with the help of such equipment you can mask drain pipes and create a place for storing household items, towels and other things.

When attaching a sink to a wall, in this case, the cabinet is mounted first. Most often, it does not require any additional fasteners, but is simply placed on special legs that can be adjusted in height. After the cabinet is installed in place, the sink is attached to the cutout of the tabletop.

A grate with a rubber gasket is inserted into the drain hole, which is tightened with a nut. A locking nut, which has a wedge-shaped ring, must be placed on the grille pipe. Then the glass from the siphon is attached, pressed against the locking ring, and the nut is screwed on.

The outlet pipe for the siphon is connected to the sewer; it is best to use a flexible corrugated pipe. The sewer socket is opened, a rubber o-ring is inserted into it until it stops, outside diameter which is 70 mm, and the internal one is 35. Now the drain pipe is connected to the siphon and sewer outlet.

Checking the tightness is very simple, you need to fill the sink with water, if there is a leak, then tighten the nuts more tightly.

The last step is to install the mixers; the specifics of the work depend on what kind of design it has.

Installation of a sink with brackets to the wall

Installation of a sink with a pedestal.

The option when the sink is mounted using brackets used to be the most popular. And to this day it is often preferred, although there are many other options on the market that are no less attractive and reliable.

The work begins with markings on the wall surface. Using a metal ruler and building level you need to draw a horizontal line at a height of about 80-85 centimeters above the floor. This is the usual location of the sink, in which it will be convenient to use. Further down from this line, you need to make marks that are equal to the thickness of all the side edges of the sink, with the help of which it will rest on the fastening brackets. At the same distance you need to make a mark on the other side. The marks are connected by a straight line.

When attaching a sink to a wall using this method, for convenience, you will have to turn the equipment itself upside down and fix the brackets on the supporting side surfaces, which should usually be included in the kit.

Now they turn the sink over, apply it to the wall, where they make marks for future fasteners. Using a drill, drill holes, hammer plugs into them, and screw the fastening brackets into place.

Now you can attach the sink to the brackets; use a wrench to screw in all the dowels. To ensure a stable and tight position of the washbasin, spacers should be used. Now you can attach the drainage system using a drain pipe and hydraulic valve

, siphon for sink. Now it’s up to you to decide which is more convenient – ​​to mount it on brackets or to a cabinet.

Installation of a washbasin with a pedestal

In most cases, a washbasin is installed near a wall; placing it in a corner is a rare case, as this is not always convenient. The sink itself is also attached to the wall surface. Of course, the wall should not be made of gypsum fiber board, but concrete, brick, etc.

Installing a sink with a pedestal makes it possible to hide the presence of a sewer drain pipe, which usually goes into the floor, when installed against the wall. It is necessary to plan the location of the sink in such a way that its drain hole completely coincides with the outlet of the sewer pipe, which should run strictly in the center. Otherwise, it will simply be impossible to fasten the pedestal.

To mark, you need to press the sink tightly against the wall without fasteners, and then make marks on its surface in the places where special fasteners will be located. After this, the washbasin is removed; using a drill, you need to drill holes and insert plugs into them. The mounting holes of the washbasin are connected to the holes made on the surface of the wall, after which, using a wrench, you need to attach the sink with screws or dowels. At the same time, it should not wobble or move away from the wall, its location should be tight and reliable (but this does not mean that you can lean on the sink).

After the installation of the washbasin bowl is completed, you need to connect drain siphon with a pipe, insert it into the socket sewer drain in the floor, check for leaks. The pedestal is installed last, after everything has been checked. Often it is attached to the sink with special bolts, but there may be an option to attach it to the wall; for this purpose, the kit must include special fasteners.

Installation of a sink with a semi-pedestal

Installation of a washbasin with a semi-pedestal is possible in the case when the sewer pipes are completely embedded in the surface of the wall, that is, the outlet socket for drainage will be located in the wall, protruding approximately 50 cm from the floor. The sink itself is installed in the usual way, after which it is necessary to install studs into the wall, onto which the half-pedestal will be fixed. Its eyes must be connected to the studs, after which you can begin connecting sewer and water pipes and installing faucets.

This option is rarely used, since installing sewer drain pipes in the wall is not always recommended.

Installation of a sink with a hanging shelf

To mount the washbasin on a special hanging shelf that takes the entire support load, you must first choose the right place. Such a shelf will not only become a reliable element of the supporting structure, but also a shelf for various toiletries. Using a two-story shelf will also allow you to disguise the drainage system, acting as a place to store household items.

First, mark the place where the sink is attached to the wall at approximately a height of 80-85 cm from the floor. Using a drill, you need to drill holes, insert plugs into them, and use dowels with special spacers to attach the washbasin to the wall. After this, the shelf under the sink is secured using a level in a horizontal position; on its upper plane, where the drain hole will be located, it is necessary to mark the place for the wiring drain pipe. This is done using a drill and a special attachment.

Now, using a chisel, a hole is made in the shelf for the washbasin, and the faucet is installed. Now the washbasin shelf can be finally fixed to the wall by aligning the drain hole on the shelf and the sink. A siphon is placed under the niche, which is combined with the socket of the sewer drain and the hole.

To work on attaching the sink to the wall you will need the following tools:

• drill and set of attachments and drills;
• washers, dowels;
• chisel;
• building level, pencil, metal ruler.

Almost anyone can handle installing a sink to a wall; you just need to take into account that all washbasins have different design. It is important to correctly determine the location where the sink will be placed so that you can then accurately connect all the sewer and water pipes.

When it comes to replacing or installing new components of a water supply system, a special approach and skill are required. However, the installation process itself is not so complicated: it is enough to have instructions and the necessary tools at hand, as well as get a couple of secrets from professional builders. If you need to install a new sink on the wall, you don’t have to call a specialist. Just read our article and start taking action yourself!

In the case of threaded connections, it is necessary to purchase a sealant, such as tow, and reliable fastening equipment.

Preparatory work

Have you already decided on the most suitable sink design and are you going to install it? Take your time! First you need to do some preliminary work, which is as follows:

• turn off all water;
• decide which corner in the room is best suited for the bowl, taking into account the piping under the mixer;
• correlate the parameters of the sink with the place prepared for it, try to see its final appearance and position.

For a small sink, the distance between the fasteners is 280 mm,
It's worth checking which one your model has

Advice. Bowl dimensions are of utmost importance. Choose the most compact, but at the same time aesthetically attractive design.

The sink should not occupy a large space, but it must have such overall parameters that would more than cover the spectrum of water spray. The optimal size of the structure is 65 cm. The most convenient installation height from the floor is 80 cm, while it is best to leave the distance in front of the sink within 90 cm.

Water outlets and sewer pipe socket for connecting a sink

As you can see, similar to any wall-hung sanitary equipment, wall-mounted sinks are installed without contact with the floor. Reliable brackets are used for fastening, which are often produced in a rather decorative design.

Step-by-step installation instructions

1. Mark the central horizontal line using a ruler, marker and spirit level. Installation will be carried out along this line. This will be, sort of, the upper limit of the bowl.
2. It is important to consider the thickness of the side walls of the sink. They must be strong enough to withstand the pressure of the brackets. Measure the thickness and record the remaining parameters of the future installation on both sides of the bowl.
3. Connect horizontally all the existing marks indicating the mounting height of the brackets.
4. Finally, work begins with the sink itself. Turn the bowl over and fix the brackets on its outer walls.

Advice. Of course, it is best for two people to carry out such installation - purely for the sake of convenience: one handles the sink, the second makes marks with a marker.

Secrets of the master

In order to efficiently install a sink on the wall, it is worth learning some of the nuances of this process, without which installed structure will not be as reliable and stable. These are tips from the best specialists installation work:

• Have wall structure a significant disadvantage is the visually open pipeline and fittings. The excellent aesthetics of the bowl is achieved thanks to a cabinet that matches the design, which will cover all these connections and the siphon. An additional advantage of this installation is a good place to store various necessary accessories.
• In practice, the entire set of fastening equipment should be included with the product. Check this issue yourself, because often: either the manufacturer forgets to complete the sink with fasteners, or their quality itself is not particularly high.
• To avoid moisture vapors getting into the space between the bowl and the wall, you must use a high-quality sealant, for example, silicone.

Upon completion of installation work, check the tightness indicator by filling the siphon with water. If you find a leak, make a tighter twist and an additional sealing layer.

• Install the bowl only after completing all finishing work. Be very careful when installing fasteners.
• The surface of the wall on which you mount the bowl must be strong and stable, otherwise use a supporting frame.
• If after installation the sink does not “move”, this is a clear indicator that the bowl installation procedure was successful.

A well-executed installation procedure is synonymous with excellent functionality and durability of the product. In view of this, before installation work, seek the support of an experienced specialist.

In the next article we will look at.

The layout of the water supply system in the house will be incomplete without connecting all plumbing fixtures. The main thing is to think about their optimal placement in the room, to ensure free access to wiring nodes and flexible connections for maintenance and repair. Each model has its own design nuances, and therefore is installed differently. In many cases, installation work is shown, which necessarily requires fastening the sink to the wall , be it the kitchen or the bathroom. This type of layout is the most common, familiar, and has its advantages, because allows you to rationally use the free space under the sink and keep this area clean.

What does the market offer?

Each type of installation has its own specifics and requires certain knowledge of installing and connecting the sink to the overall system. The variety of designs on the market is amazing:

• sink on the cabinet;
• bowl on the shelf;
• “tulip” model;
• installation on a pedestal;
• wall mounting on brackets.

But still, the most popular mounting method is still mounting the sink on the wall.

It is necessary to select a sink model in which the connections for hot and cold water and the drainage outlet are identical to the location of these communications in the room.

What tools will you need?

You can do the following work yourself if you have the necessary tools at hand:

• screwdriver;
• gas key;
• drill;
• drill for concrete works with a pobedite tip;
• spanners;
• building level;
• marker;
• hammer.

For threaded connections, you should stock up with Fum tape (or tow) as a sealant, as well as fastening material.

In stores it is better to buy special sets of fasteners for installing a sink. By giving preference to branded products, you don’t have to worry about the reliability of the installation

Stages of installation work

The water is turned off, both cold and hot. Then you need to decide what place in the interior of the room is allocated for the bowl, taking into account the cold and hot water under the mixer. After this, the sink prepared for installation is tried on on site, and its position is finally selected.

Correctly determine the size of the bowl and the height of its installation. It is necessary to choose a model so that it does not occupy extra square meters of the room, but, at the same time, has sufficient dimensions to cover the water jet spray sector. These can be standard 50-65 cm wide models. The most “ergonomic” installation height is 0.8 m from the floor. It is preferable to leave the distance in front of the washbasin within 0.8-0.9 m.

Photo guide for installing a washbasin on the wall - in principle, everything is clear without further ado

At the selected height, armed with a ruler, pencil and level, the central horizontal line along which installation work will be carried out is indicated. This will be the upper limit of the installation of the plumbing fixture.

It is very important to know the thickness of the side walls of the bowl. They must withstand the support of the brackets. The measured thickness is laid down from the previously made horizontal line on both sides of the sink and is recorded with a mark.

The resulting marks are connected by a horizontal line indicating the installation height of the brackets.

Next we work with the bowl: turn it over and fix the brackets on the sides. It is better to do this work together: one person manipulates the sink, aligning it horizontally; the other makes the necessary marks.

Having placed the bowl horizontally, use a marker to mark through the recesses with reverse side places for installing fasteners. In this case, you need to make sure that all the lines and places for the brackets match. According to these designations, holes are drilled with a drill with a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the mounting screws or dowel screws.

Plastic or nylon bushings (you can use plugs) are driven into the drilled places, and screws are screwed into them. Support brackets are attached to them, on which, in turn, the sink bowl is installed. The places for its further fastening to the wall are marked with a marker, drilled, and the bowl is placed in its place.

The final step is to connect the siphon, the outlet end of which is inserted into the sewer socket; installing a mixer and connecting the water supply.

Having slightly “rigged” the fasteners, the sink is finally leveled horizontally, after which the final reliable fixation of all fasteners is carried out.

Important “little things” that you need to pay attention to

Ideally, all the necessary fasteners are included in the repair kit supplied with the product. But this must be checked when purchasing a plumbing product. If the manufacturer has not provided fasteners or their quality is not satisfactory, then it is better to purchase them in advance.

To prevent moisture from entering the gap between the wall and the sink, the latter is sealed with silicone. Having completed the installation work, be sure to check the tightness of the drain section of the system using the volume of water that filled the siphon. When a leak is detected threaded connections tighten it more tightly and insulate it with additional sealant.

Sink installation is done after completion finishing works. In this case, special attention is paid to the execution of mounting holes

Fastening plumbing equipment to the wall only pays off when the wall surface is strong and reliable. Otherwise, a supporting frame should be provided.

The water supply to the bowl and the siphon can be covered with a cabinet or cabinet, which is also a place for storing toiletries. Increasing the free space under the sink can be achieved by using a flat siphon. ABOUT correct installation The bowl is evidenced by its stable state without swaying or moving.

Proper installation of the sink not only guarantees its continued functionality, but also extends its service life. Therefore, before you begin installation, seek advice from an experienced plumber.

A sink is one of the indispensable attributes of any bathroom or kitchen. Over time, it loses its original appearance and it has to be changed. Let's find out how to choose and install a sink yourself.

Buying a sink - how not to make a mistake with the choice?

You can find it in plumbing stores big choice various shells. They can vary greatly in shape, parameters and method of fastening. Depending on the design and installation method, you can place the plumbing fixtures on a countertop, a special “pedestal,” or attach the sink to the wall. Each method has its own pros and cons.

Mounting your new sink to the wall saves some space under the sink. Free space can be taken up with items that you use in everyday life. In this case, the product is fixed to the wall surface through holes located in its rear part.

With the help of a “pedestal” you can attach a larger and more functional sink. This type of plumbing is also called a “tulip sink”. This design makes it possible to hide water drainage hoses, water pipes and siphon. This will make the room much more attractive.

These models of plumbing fixtures are fixed on the wall using the dowel pins included in the kit. In addition to them, the set also includes protective washers made of plastic. Such sinks can be installed not only in the bathroom, but also in the kitchen.

In small bathrooms, residents prefer to mount the new sink to a separate countertop. To do this, you can use a monoblock or mortise plumbing fixtures. Unlike "tulips", such sinks often do not have holes for faucets. When installing this plumbing fixture, the pipes must be removed so that the mixer can be attached directly to the pipes without using flexible hoses.

What tools will be useful during installation?

Before you install a sink in your bathroom or kitchen, you will need to gather the necessary tools. Having prepared necessary equipment, you will not be distracted by searching the right tool during the installation process. You will need:

• building level;
• hammer drill with a set of drills;
• screws and dowels;

• screwdriver or screwdriver;
• wrench and adjustable wrench;
• sink and set of fastening elements;
• meter ruler.

Depending on the situation, you may need a hammer. Also, be sure to buy sanitary sealant, which will need to be used to fill the joints between the sink and the wall. The sealants from companies perform best in practice Tytan And Ravak.

The procedure for installing a sink - we study in detail

Experts advise mounting the product at a distance of 70–80 cm from the floor. Often this parameter changes depending on the growth of family members.

Next, take a level and leave marks in the form of a horizontal line in the place where the sink will be placed. Measure the thickness of those walls of the product that will rest on the mounting brackets. Then mark the middle of the back of the sink. Transfer this point to the wall and mark it. After this, determine the distance from the brackets to the middle part of the sink. Attach the mounting brackets to the line from below at a distance that will be equal to the previous indicator. Mark the mounting locations on the wall surface through the mounting holes.

Drill holes according to the marks, screw dowels into them and install brackets. After this, leave marks on the surface of the wall through its back walls. Remove the product and make holes at the marked points. Screw the dowels into them. Then place the sink back in place and secure it finally using the fasteners from the kit. After this, connect the siphon and the entire system to the sewer. Apply a thin layer of sealant at the joints between the product and the wall.

Some sink models do not come with the required brackets. Because of this, they must be purchased separately. Gusset brackets are best suited for mounting the product. suitable length.

Installation of a sink with a “pedestal” and connection to the sewer system

Choose a place where it will be most convenient to use the sink. Next, mark the mounting locations with a marker, based on the marks in the stand. Move the sink aside and drill holes in the wall. The diameter and length of the holes must correspond to the dimensions of the fasteners from the kit. Then screw in the dowels and insert the studs into them.

To fix the mixer, follow the instructions that come with it. To begin, place the product in the hole in the sink. Next, securely fasten the mixer with the fasteners included in the kit and check the symmetry of the mounted product.

To connect the faucet to the water supply system, attach flexible water supply hoses to it. Hoses must have a hard metal braid and rubber cuffs at the ends.

After this, pull the channels through the hole in the plumbing and the sealing ring. Next, secure the mixer using nuts and washers. Place the outlet from the siphon kit inside the hole for draining the water, securing it with a nut or screw. Attach 2 rubber gaskets between the sink and the outlet.

Next, fix the siphon itself for release. Connect the device to a plastic pipe with a diameter of approximately 3.5 cm. It is intended for connection to the sewer. After this, move the “pedestal” with the plumbing and secure it with nuts and washers. At the end, all that remains is to connect the outlet pipe to the sewer, and connect the flexible hoses to the water pipe.

After assembling the siphon, the sink must be connected to the sewer. To do this, secure the product in the sink hole intended for drainage. When doing this, you must make sure that the rubber gaskets fit tightly into the hole.

After this, connect the siphon hose to the sewer pipeline. Check the water supply and any leaks. To do this, turn on the taps with different pressures. If water leaks, tighten the nuts.

Installing a sink into a countertop

Most often, a sink is mounted into the countertop. Measure the width, length and height of the cabinet and sink. Often, a template is included with the plumbing fixtures, according to which you need to mark and cut out the hole for the sink. If you haven’t found a template, then you need to lay out a piece of cardboard on the table and place the sink upside down on the paper. Then mark its outline on paper with a marker. From the resulting line, leave an indent at a distance equal to the width of the sides. After this, you need to cut out the resulting template.

After that, start cutting out the hole. In this case, you need to be extremely careful. Leave approximately 5 cm from the edge of the tabletop, attach the template to the surface and mark the contours with a marker. According to the outline, you need to drill a couple of holes with a drill. After this, insert the jigsaw blade into one of them and make a cut along the contour. Be sure to sand the edges of the resulting hole with sandpaper.

To attach the sink to the wall, you need to apply it to the lower parts of its sides. After this, press the product firmly against the countertop and hold it there for 3-5 minutes. At the end, all that remains is to install the mixer and siphon and connect the water supply. Sometimes special clamps are sold along with countertop sinks, which should also be used during installation. They will more securely hold the product on the countertop.

Features of installation on drywall

Often, residents need to attach a sink to a plasterboard wall in the bathroom. If the frame was not previously used for finishing work, then there will be no special problems with installation. However, if there is sheathing under the drywall, then attaching the sink to such a wall will not be so easy. The best option– during the installation of the sheathing, place small wooden blocks in the required places under the drywall. Then the sink will be mounted to these bars. Where the sink is installed, it is best to replace the finishing with an analogue - a sheet of glass magnesium.

If the decoration is already on the walls, then you can get out of the situation this way. Hang a powerful magnet on a strong thread and find the place where metal parts battens. Then mark these places with a marker, drill holes in them and screw in screws.

You can also purchase special fastenings for walls finished with plasterboard. Ideal option would be the purchase of a dowel-nail “snail” or a “butterfly” fastening. These clamps are quite reliable and easy to use. However, to achieve best quality installation, you must act strictly according to the instructions included in the kit.

IN modern apartment The sink is a standard item in any bathroom. Plumbing manufacturers today offer many types of sinks. And although general principles The installations are the same, there are some nuances in the installation of each of their installation options.

At the final stage of a bathroom renovation, it’s time to install the plumbing. It is important to place it correctly and conveniently. Correct placement of the sink is especially important for small bathrooms. One solution to this problem is to use a wall-mounted sink.

Simple instructions for installing a sink on the wall

Before purchasing a new bathroom sink, you need to calculate it optimal size, and also decide on the placement location. A popular option is to mount the sink on the wall, as this method will save space in the room. If you choose this method, then make sure that the wall on which you are going to mount the washbasin is strong. A plasterboard wall will not support a sink, so it cannot be hung on this type of ceiling.

To build something new, you need to break the old. If you are going to attach new plumbing in place of the old one, dismantle old sink. Carefully unscrew the faucet. Before dismantling the siphon, the water must be drained from it. Once the faucet and trap are disconnected from the sink, you can remove it.

If you plan to install the washbasin in another place, then you need to run pipes under it for hot and cold water.

Built-in sink

The sewer pipe should be placed exactly in the center of the sink. It is very important to install the washbasin at the correct height so that it can be used comfortably by all family members. Typically the height ranges from 80 to 90 cm from the floor. All measurements must be marked on the wall so that it is convenient for you to install plumbing in the future.

Tools and materials

IN hardware store you can find the necessary set of fastening elements for the sink. Since moisture and dampness are eternal companions of the bathroom, you need to choose silicone sealant with special care. There are special sealants on sale that are designed specifically for the bathroom (especially wet areas). If you choose this material correctly, it will not turn black over time.

Several installation methods

The installation method will depend on the sink you purchased. Below we will look at several popular mounting options. Before installation begins, it is necessary to turn off the water in the pipes. And also complete all the preparatory work that we described above.

First you need to note the level of installation of the plumbing fixture. Initially, mark the selected height on the wall. The optimal height is 80-90 cm. In order for the walls of the bowl to withstand the pressure of the brackets, you need to know their thickness. We measure it and transfer it to the existing horizontal line (height). Then we make marks.

The next stage is to mark the markings for attaching the sink to the wall. Turning the bowl over, we mark on the recesses on the reverse side for installing the frame. In this case, you need to level the washbasin using a level. Because the this work It is quite difficult for one person to complete, it is best to involve someone else in this process. Make sure that all your marked lines match.

According to the markings, it is necessary to make a hole for the bracket and washbasin. Then we drive the bushings into the holes; they should be included with the washbasin. We screw the screws into them. And then you can install the support.

The next step is to install and secure the bowl. We place the bowl on the brackets and make marks to secure it, then drill holes along them and install the sink in its place. It is very important to control the depth of the stud at which the bowl will be installed. The length of the protruding part of the pin should exceed the width of the bowl by 10-15 mm.

If you are making holes on the surface of ceramic tiles, then in order to prevent the drill from slipping, it is recommended to attach a special mounting adhesive tape to the drilling site.

Before inserting the plumbing fixture into place, be sure to apply sealant to the edges of the bowl. For more better protection the junction between the wall and top part bowls, you can attach a special plastic strip. It is attached with silicone sealant. If you installed it correctly, the washbasin will fit snugly against the wall and not wobble.

The washbasin model, which does not have a bracket and is attached directly to the wall, is installed in a similar way. Having marked the mounting location, drill holes for the studs. Keep in mind that the mount will be screwed in, so it should protrude 1.5-2 cm. Another type of installation is to mount the sink on the wall to which the cabinet will be attached. In this case, you need to make sure that the elements of the cabinet will not interfere with the sewer system and mixer. The plumbing fixture is attached to the wall with bolts, and the cabinet is attached to brackets.

Connecting water supply and sewerage

The final stage will be the installation of water supply and sewer system. Before installing the mixer, it must be assembled. This must be done strictly according to the instructions that should be included in the package with the device. Remember that the rubber gaskets must fit snugly into the holes in the bowl and should not be misaligned. Check them also for defects; the gasket should not have cracks. It is necessary to wrap a sealant around the threaded connections of the valve. Then use an adjustable wrench to secure the faucet hoses.

The siphon also requires preliminary assembly. You will not encounter any particular difficulties in this process. The main thing is not to forget about the rubber gaskets and that they fit correctly and tightly to the sink. The outlet hose is inserted into sewer pipe. If the sizes differ it is necessary to use sealing cuff. It can also be sealed with silicone sealant.

After all installation work has been completed, you must turn on the water in the tap and check all systems. If you follow all the above recommendations, then installing a sink will seem like a very simple job. Remember that when purchasing plumbing fixtures, you must check the availability of all fastening parts. High-quality plumbing fixtures are easier to install.

Types of bath sinks

Modifications of sinks differ not only in style, shape and size, but also in the method of installation:

Corner washbasin with wall mounting

• Hanging Plumbing fixtures have a sink fastened to the wall, so the entire mass directly affects both the fastening itself and the wall, which for bathrooms is quite thin, which is not safe. That is why safe fastening of the sink to the wall is carried out only on load-bearing wall structures. The main advantage of this installation is the free space under the device, which allows for a comfortable position near it; moreover, the wall fasteners are independent of other furniture and can be located at any convenient level.

• Sink on a “tulip” type pedestal- stylized sanitary ware has a ceramic “leg”, which is the main support holding the sink with the decorative function of water supply and sewerage communications. To ensure that the plumbing fixture does not move from its place, the sink is fixed to the wall with special anchor bolts, which are not capable of bearing a weight load, but only ensure that the sink is pressed against the wall.

Installing a Tulip type sink by level

• Mounting the sink in the bathroom can be done using a supporting cabinet or tabletop- This is one of the most reliable methods of installing plumbing fixtures, because... its mass acts on a stable, strong furniture design. This type of fastening of the sink to the countertop of the bathroom furniture helps to saturate the space with functionality, because in the niche under the sink there can be shelves that can be used to store detergents and personal hygiene items. One “but” - the cabinet under the sink does not allow you to move freely with a close approach to the sink, i.e. There is a slight inconvenience in reaching the faucet. The solution to this problem lies in choosing sink models with an elongated shape (parallel to the wall) and a side hanging over the cabinet (the cabinet is smaller than the sink itself).

Even shells of the same type can differ:

• Thus, the “seating” places for power fastening the sink to the wall and the holes for fixing it to the wall can differ significantly in the center-to-center distance between the fastening places and in the diameter of the fasteners used. Despite the wide variety of plumbing fixtures and fastening elements for them, the concept of a standard design is also applicable for plumbing fixtures, i.e. can be distinguished whole line sink models from various manufacturers with a similar mounting arrangement.
• The main and most important difference between sinks is the material used for their manufacture, some varieties of which can easily withstand fastening the sink to the wall, while others may turn out to be fragile under the mechanical influence of the metal mount on the sink.
• Sink designs may provide for the installation of a mixer, for which models are equipped with a mounting hole. If such a model is installed with a wall mixer, the technological hole is closed with a decorative plug.

Features of sink mounting

Various models of plumbing fixtures, as a rule, have various ways installation:

Photo of a wall-mounted sink in a bathroom interior

• This is how the sink is attached to the wall: metal brackets . Moreover, the “arm” of the fastener can have several sizes, because depth (width to wall) comes in three sizes. At the same time metal mount it is mounted to the wall using powerful bolts or studs, but the sink, depending on the model, may not be screwed at all, but only placed on mounting brackets. Therefore, for additional fixation in such cases, sanitary sealant is used in places of contact with the wall and bracket frames, which creates an elastic “gluing”.
• Mounting a sink in a bathroom on a “leg” has its own pitfalls, because both the plumbing and the lining of the walls and floors in the bathroom are made of ceramics, which can easily be damaged if hit. Therefore, between the ceramic planes of the sink, walls and floor, install polymer gaskets with gluing with silicone sealant. Only this installation method can ensure the absence of unpleasant ringing and squeaking noises from ceramics when struck inadvertently. It is worth considering that the bulk of the sink should act on the ceramic stand-leg, so fastening and pulling the sink itself to the wall should not cause it to rise on the support (leg), otherwise the sink will simply crack under mechanical stress.
• The easiest way is to mount the sink in the countertop, because the installation is carried out under its own weight into a specially cut-out seat in a furniture cabinet, while it is recommended to use silicone sealant to improve fixation and increase the tightness of the mating seams. The combined sink/cabinet structure usually has sufficient mass to avoid additional fastening to the wall, but if desired, they can always be fixed using anchor bolts.

Conclusion: the choice of sink model, bathroom furniture and mounting fixtures should be carried out simultaneously according to the principle of completeness, because lack of vision of the method and method of installation can lead to problematic situations with the breakdown of fragile plumbing fixtures. If there is a misunderstanding of the principles of fastening a sink, it is recommended that this event be carried out only with the involvement of professionals.

Bracket for a bathroom sink: types of wall mounts and installation

Today there are many types of plumbing fixtures to suit every taste. Among them are “tulip” sinks, built-in, overhead, on a pedestal and semi-pedestal, “water lilies”, and hanging.

For many years now, the most used model has been the wall-hung basin. The secret of its popularity lies in ease of installation, space saving and neat design, because all communications can be easily hidden from view. The variety of forms also speaks in favor of console plumbing devices. They can be oval, round, rectangular, square, angular, or asymmetrical.

A wall-hung sink opens up a usable space underneath where you can place a small bedside table, a washing machine or store cleaning products. It is also easier to clean the floor under it, and due to the fact that it takes up quite a bit of space, such a sink will be a salvation for tiny bathrooms.

Installing washbasins to the wall will not cause difficulties even for people who do not have experience in such types of work. You can attach the sink to the wall using brackets, the variety of which is just as great.

How to choose wall mounts for sinks

The bracket is a detail that you cannot do without when fixing the washbasin to the wall. To use your sink comfortably for many years, you need to know firsthand the most reliable fasteners. In general, there are two main types of brackets: standard and specialized.

The first type of fasteners are made of cast iron or welding steel, which are coated protective layer paints. These parts are used for standard wall-mounted sinks.

The second type of fixtures are available complete with decorative sinks and can have a fancy, unusual shape that matches the style of the washbasin. Such fastenings for fixing on the wall are coated with special coatings made of ceramics or non-oxidizing metals, which perform protective and, at the same time, design functions. Typically the coating is either nickel plating or anodizing. It protects the fasteners from corrosion.

Choosing brackets. you need to take into account the features of the washbasin. If the sink weighs 85 kg, then the characteristics of the fasteners should indicate that they can withstand a weight that includes this figure and even more! Don't forget, you or your child may lean on the sink bowl, which will add a few extra pounds of stress that could cause damage.

Wall mounting structures

• Monolithic brackets are parts cast from cast iron in the shape of the letter “T”. They have a platform and a reinforced base for fastening.
• One of the most reliable bathroom wall mounts is the “girth” model bracket. It looks like a metal frame into which the sink is “inserted.” Due to the fact that the fastening platforms are connected to each other, and do not represent individual parts, such a system is considered the most stable.
• Frame-type fasteners are made of metal. This design can have sliding units that allow you to vary the size of the fastening. Parts of this type are arc, rectangular and sector.
• Steelwork brackets are fastening accessories produced in the form of the letters "L" and "T" and are found in a simplified form from profiled pipes.

It is not difficult to fix such structures on the wall on your own. To begin with, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with standard requirements for installation.

1. Water outlets should be hidden behind the installed sink. Once the work is completed they should not be visible.
2. If the washbasin creaks or wobbles after installation, this is a signal that reinstallation is necessary.
3. If leaks occur, you need to once again check the tightness of the tight connections and treat the pipe joints with sealant.
4. Fixing the sink on the wall should be done only after finishing work has been completed and after the pipeline has been installed.
5. The supply of cold and hot water to the sink must be carried out taking into account the distance between the pipes, which should be at least 15 centimeters.
6. For proper operation of all communications, the sink should be mounted level on the wall. Don't forget to use a level.
7. Before installation, be sure to check the strength of the bathroom wall. It is not recommended to attach it to drywall, as the structure will be very unreliable. If the wall is not very strong, then before installation it is recommended to use cement mortar or supporting frame.
8. A separate faucet for the sink is assembled and installed before installing it on the wall.

How to install a sink on the wall yourself

1. Prepare the necessary tools: level, tape, pencil or marker, drill, brackets. plastic dowels, screwdriver/screwdriver, washers, wrenches, glue and sealant.
2. Turn off the water.
3. Choose a place on the bathroom wall. where the washbasin will hang (usually the height of its fixation is 85 cm from the floor, but it can be varied depending on your preferences) and draw a horizontal line. Align the upper edge of the sink in accordance with the drawn line and mark the places where the fasteners will be fixed. On the side where the sink should touch the bathroom wall. You can find special slots near the washbasin, which must correspond to the location of the fasteners.
4. Drill holes for the brackets where you made the marks. The holes should be slightly smaller in size than the plastic dowels.
5. Blow dust out of the finished holes, pour a little glue into them and hammer in the dowels.
6. Install the fasteners that will hold the sink.
7. Coat the part where the sink will be adjacent to the wall with silicone sealant.
8. Secure the sink to the brackets.
9. Connect the siphon and sewer system.
10. Check the work for strength by trying to tug the structure from side to side. It should not wobble or creak. Turn on the water and check whether the installed plumbing structure is leaking.

Brackets for wall-mounted bathroom sinks are an essential installation accessory. Therefore, when choosing a particular mount, you must pay attention to its characteristics, as well as its design. The bathroom will become a favorite place for household members if every detail is matched to each other in accordance with the general idea.

Sink brackets and other fastening elements

The sink bracket is one of the most important elements for attaching the sink. Plumbing is making serious steps forward, developing, improving in every sense. And shells are certainly no exception. The variety of solutions is also increasing, resulting in different mounting methods for them. As practice shows, wall mounting for a sink is one of the most popular ways to install this product these days.

How to attach

Since wall fastening methods provide additional comfort and allow you to get closer to the plumbing itself, we will consider two main types of such fasteners.

Installation diagram and mounting points for a wall-hung sink

1. The washbasin is installed by cutting into the hanging shelves. This installation for the sink allows you to simultaneously provide the function of a cabinet and a countertop, which the shelf performs. The result is a fairly compact, functional, practical cabinet with washbasin. By the way, the tabletop or cabinet itself, depending on the location of your plumbing, is attached to the walls with brackets. If we are talking about a small bathroom, corner solutions, then mounting fittings are used for fastening.
2. Fastening with sink brackets. It should be classified as an even more common method than the first. Such designs can be used intelligently from a design point of view, plus the fastenings are almost invisible. That's why such sink-to-wall mountings are so popular among customers.

How to ensure reliable fastening

A high-quality installation for a sink will be provided that several fairly simple conditions are met:

1. The wall must be of sufficient strength and thickness. Installation is not allowed if we are talking about installation in soft walls, or on partitions made of plasterboard. If we are even talking about overhead brackets, then the anchors must have at least a length of 40 millimeters. This suggests that on thin walls Under no circumstances should hanging plumbing fixtures be attached.
2. Various sink brackets can be made from different materials, causing their stiffness to differ from each other. It is very important that the sink installation is carried out using brackets that are designed to support the plumbing fixtures you have chosen. The fasteners may look the same, but in reality they are designed for different loads. Some will fit under steel sinks, but ceramic products will not be able to withstand them.
3. When buying sink brackets, be sure to consider them design features. We are talking about shapes, sizes, compliance with various devices, products. Exist universal solutions, however, there are also specialized fasteners.

What types of brackets are there?

Today there are a lot of sink mounts. You need not only to choose the right washbasin, but also to ensure its reliable adhesion to the surface. And for this, high-quality sink brackets are suitable.

1. Specialized. They are used when attaching certain models. That is, they cannot be used under every washbasin. As a rule, such fasteners are offered complete with designer, original plumbing products, which are made in non-standard form. At the same time, such fastenings of the sink to the wall are complemented by special decorative and protective coatings. They are made of non-oxidizing metal and ceramics.
2. Standard. Of course, with the help of such sink fasteners, standard plumbing solutions can be installed on the wall. However, here it is important to take into account the fact what is the load-bearing capacity of the structure and what are its dimensions. Standard brackets for sinks are made by casting using cast iron. There are also products made of profiled steel, made by welding with the application of protective paint.

Modifications

We have already decided what the fastenings can be, that installation for a sink is a popular installation method, and also that brackets are in many ways suitable for a washbasin. Therefore, let’s figure out exactly what modifications of sink brackets are found today.

• Monolithic fastenings made of cast iron. They are distinguished in the shape of the letter T, they have a reinforced base and mounting platform.
• Welded from steel. As a rule, they are made in the form of the letter T or G. Although there are simplified options that are made from a square-shaped profiled pipe.
• Frame types of fastenings. They are met with sector, arc, rectangular. Some models are equipped with sliding units designed to adjust the size of the fasteners. When installing a sink, two such brackets are installed under it at once.
• Covering. This looks like a large metal profiled frame, onto which the washbasin itself is mounted directly. They are reliable and stable.

Remember that when choosing brackets for a sink or washbasin, you should take into account the maximum loads that can be placed on your plumbing. If the washbasin weighs 50 kilograms, do not take brackets designed for 75-100 kilograms. After all, you can rest your entire weight on it, as a result of which you will have to make repairs, and maybe even change the sink.

Fastening process

In fact, attaching sinks to the wall is quite simple.

Modern steel sink brackets

1. To ensure optimal comfort, it should be 80-85 centimeters from the floor level. But if you are a short person, or vice versa, the situation can be changed. Stand in the bathroom and try on what level you would be comfortable performing the procedures at.
2. The softer the wall, the deeper the hole should be, as well as its diameter. It’s not difficult to check the hardness of the wall; to do this, you can use a small-diameter drill and drill a hole, which will then be hidden behind the sink. If the drill goes in easily, then we recommend using a larger and longer drill to fasten the brackets. Of course, you will also need the appropriate dowels. Therefore, first check the wall and then buy fastenings.
3. Drilling should be carried out to the base under the plaster, or rather into its depth. Only after drilling into brick or concrete can the depth be stopped. Otherwise, the brackets will only hold on plaster layer. It won't support the weight of the sink. Experts recommend choosing anchors whose length ranges from 5 to 12 centimeters.
4. A polymer plug, that is, a dowel, must be inserted into the hole, after which you can begin installing the anchor and fixing brackets.
5. If the bracket is securely fastened, it should not move under heavy load. Arm yourself with the same pliers and pull the bracket to the sides. If you can’t move it, then you did everything right.
6. Once reliability has been checked, you can begin fixing the washbasin itself. A reliable fastening for the sink is now provided to you.

As you can see, the brackets are very useful, irreplaceable elements when installing sinks, and more. It is important not only to choose strong, reliable fasteners, but also to choose them in accordance with the plumbing that you plan to install. At the same time, the installation of the sink will be done quite easily; you won’t have to involve specialists.

Make sure you have the necessary tools at your disposal. After all, without it, installation for the sink will be impossible. Your main tools will be a screwdriver, a drill with a set of drills, a hammer, and pliers. Armed with well-chosen fasteners for the sink to the wall, you can get to work.

Sink brackets to the wall

The original design of sanitary facilities should have not only design elements, but also functional devices with optimal location in space. Thus, different models of sinks differ significantly in the method of fastening, which Lately The wall type is gaining more and more popularity.

Methods for wall mounting a sink

Wall mounting of the sink allows you to get close to the plumbing fixture with a convenient location, and there are two main types of fastening devices:

• The sink is mounted by cutting into hanging shelf, which serves as a convenient tabletop or cabinet. As a rule, a tabletop or cabinet has its own specialized fastenings, which can be in the form of brackets for mounting on a large “open” wall. At limited space premises, when the sink is installed in a corner or a small opening between plumbing fixtures, the shelf-table top is attached point-wise to the walls using mounting hardware. Fastening the sink using the countertop is highly reliable.
• Mounting on sink brackets to the wall is an equally common, and even more popular, technology for installing plumbing fixtures, because... The fastening itself is very often not particularly striking, and designer designs even add their own charm to the overall interior. Hanging sinks is a very old invention that can be easily improvised with pipes or rods driven into the wall, but you always need to take into account the weight of the plumbing fixture and the strength of the wall itself.

For reliable wall mounting sinks, several conditions must be met:

• First of all, the wall must be strong and thick enough, so such installation on plasterboard or other “soft” walls is not allowed. Even overhead brackets for a sink to the wall require anchors at least 40 mm long for reliable installation.
• The brackets are made from various materials and have different hardness, i.e. ability to withstand a certain weight. Thus, most lightweight fastening structures are not able to withstand the load from a ceramic sink, but are intended for the installation of metal plumbing fixtures.
• When purchasing wall brackets for sinks, it is necessary to take into account their structural features, i.e. the size and shape of the interface with the plumbing fixture, because There are various non-universal modifications.

Types of sink brackets

Wall mounts for sinks must withstand a significant weight load with a margin, so they are made from various metals and are divided into two categories:

Installation process of a wall-mounted sink

• Specialized fasteners that are produced specifically for a specific sink model. These are, as a rule, designs of designer plumbing fixtures that have a special shape. Such brackets must be included with designer model sinks, and can be in the form of pins with a specially curved shape, “hugging” the shell of a pipe or interweaving of rods, profiled welded structures. Fastenings must have a decorative and protective coating with specialized (ceramic) paint or a thin layer of non-oxidizing metal (anodizing, nickel plating).
• “Standardized” brackets for a sink to the wall are designed for the installation of standard plumbing fixtures, and it is necessary to take into account the load-bearing capacity of the structure and its dimensions. Fastenings are made of cast iron by casting or from high-quality profiled steel by welding, followed by protective painting.

Modifications of mounting brackets can be divided according to design features:

• Monolithic cast iron fasteners are manufactured in the form of T-shaped posts with a reinforced base and fastening platform.
• Welded steel structures in most cases also have a T- or L-shape, while there are simplified modifications made from a square profiled pipe.
• You can also find brackets in the form of frames: rectangular, arc, sector. At the same time, some models have a sliding unit for adjusting the size of the fastening. A pair of brackets are installed under the sink.
• The fastener models that “encircle” the sink are a large profiled metal frame, into which the sink “fits.” Due to the rigid ligation between the platforms fastening to the wall, such fastening is characterized by special load resistance, because under external pressure, the possibility, as in other models, of shifting a single “foot” bracket is eliminated.

The choice of bracket model must take into account the likelihood of extremely large weight forces on them and the method of fixing the sink on them, because Simply placing plumbing fixtures on supports cannot be safe.

Attaching sink brackets to the wall

• Using brackets for a sink to the wall, it is quite easy to install plumbing fixtures, and the general principles of installation are taken as a basis:
• Usually, for greater convenience, the sink is located at a height from the floor of about 800-850 mm, but adjustments to this parameter in any convenient direction are allowed.
• Before fixing the brackets to the wall, the hardness of the wall itself is checked, for which purpose the marking of the mounting holes is carried out with a screwdriver, nail or other sharp object. If the wall surface is found to be quite soft, then it is necessary to increase the drilling depth and fastener diameter as much as possible.
• Drilling mounting holes while controlling their depth, because soft plaster will not allow the brackets to be securely fastened. The drilling depth should ensure that a hole is created in the plaster base (brick or concrete) to a depth of at least 30 mm. That is why installation anchors are individually selected from 50 to 120 mm in length.
• IN mounting holes Polymer specialized plugs are tightly inserted into which metal anchors are screwed in to secure the wall brackets for sinks.

A securely fixed bracket should not move under significant load. Only after this can the sink be placed on the brackets with fixation, which can be done either with additional clips or with the help of plumbing sealant on the mating planes.
