Frequently Asked Questions
Why does leaning matter more than weight?
Because of where the force is applied.
At the front edge, furthest from the wall.
Which turns a modest force into a moment.
And basin fixings are close together.
The frame resists rotation, not mass.
Who actually leans on a basin?
Everybody, several times a day.
Leaning in towards a mirror.
Resting on it while washing.
Steadying on it, or a child hanging off it.
None of it is unusual use.
What has to fit inside the frame?
Everything that would otherwise show.
The trap, and both tap tails.
Plus the isolation valves.
That concealment is the point of the basin.
And it sets the frame depth.
What if the trap will not fit?
It is a depth error, found late.
A bottle trap needs real space behind.
A frame shallower than the trap fails.
And by then the wall is built.
Choose trap and frame depth together.
Which traps suit this position?
Space-saver and shallow types.
They exist largely for concealed basins.
At the cost of a reduced seal.
Which matters on an unused basin.
Weigh both before deciding.
Is basin height standard?
Less standard than WC height.
It varies for children and for access.
And for straightforward preference.
It is a real decision, not a default.
Made at the frame, before boarding.
Can the height be changed later?
Only by opening the wall.
The brackets are inside the prewall.
So the tiling has to come off.
Decide it with whoever will use the room.
Rather than taking a default figure.
