A mounting system for securing a sink to a countertop supported by a cabinet is provided. The mounting system includes a receiving structure configured to be supported under a rim of the sink, a bracket having a first portion configured to engage a portion of the cabinet and a second portion configured to engage a bottom of a basin of the sink, a linking member extending between the receiving structure and the bracket, a first connector configured to engage a first end of the linking member and retain the linking member relative to the receiving structure, and a second connector configured to engage a second end of the linking member and secure the bracket against the cabinet and the bottom of the basin of the sink.

Mounting system for sink

Apron front sink

A sink includes a basin configured to hold water, an apron extending from a front of the basin and having a plurality of walls and a rear surface defining an opening in a front of the apron, and a panel assembly removably received in the opening, where the outer perimeter of the panel assembly is spaced from an inner perimeter of the plurality of walls of the apron.

Apron front sink with interchangeable faces

A sink includes a front wall, a first side wall, and a second side wall. The front wall includes an inner surface that defines part of a basin of the sink, and an outer surface located opposite the inner surface that is configured to be exposed in front of an opening of a cabinet in which the s sink is installed. The front wall includes first and second lateral portions that extend outwardly past the first and second side walls. The first and second lateral portions of the front wall are configured to at least partially overlap a front face of the cabinet adjacent the opening, so as to substantially conceal the opening when the sink is installed thereto.

Vessel sink and method of installing same

A method for making a sink with a supporting structure including providing a sink including at least one basin and a rim extending outwardly from at least one side of the at least one basin, and coupling a support structure in the form of at least one channel to an underside of the at least one side of the rim using a tool. The tool includes a channel support configured to receive one channel of the at least one channels.

Method of making drawn sink having low-profile rim

An assembly process for assembling a basin using a molding tool operable between an open position and a closed position, the molding tool having a female molding insert, a male molding insert, and an insert jig, the female molding insert and the male molding insert cooperating to define a mold cavity when the molding tool is in the closed position, the female molding insert having an aperture, the insert jig having a sleeve and a cylinder, the cylinder repositionable within the sleeve and having an end with an end face and a pin protruding from the end face, includes applying adhesive to the pin. The assembly process also includes aligning the pin with an aperture of a basin rim insert. The assembly process also includes pressing the basin rim insert towards the end face such that the pin is received within the aperture of the basin rim insert.

Method of manufacturing a sink system

An undermount, apron-front sink is provided. The sink includes a basin, a ledge, a rim coupled with the basin, an upper portion, and an apron. The basin includes a first side wall, an opposite second side wall, a front wall, and a rear wall. The ledge is supported at and extends outwardly from an upper end of one of the front wall and the rear wall of the basin. The rim is supported at and extends outwardly from the basin in a substantially horizontal orientation to form a continuous planar surface that is configured to be mounted abutting an underside of a horizontal countertop. The upper portion extends between the ledge and the one of the front wall and the rear wall. The apron is coupled with the basin and includes a right end portion, a left end portion, a front face, and a rear face.

Fireclay apron-front sink with intergrated ledge and self-trimming features

A panel assembly for providing an apron-front aesthetic for a sink installed in a cabinet. The panel assembly includes a mounting body configured for coupling to a cabinet and a cover panel coupled to the mounting body to provide an apron-front aesthetic for a sink coupled to the cabinet. The mounting body may include an opening and the cover panel may be located within the opening. The mounting body may be configured to couple to a portion of the cabinet where a false drawer would normally be located. The panel assembly may include a fastener configured to extend through a portion of the mounting body to engage the cover panel so as to secure the cover panel in place with respect to the mounting body. The cover panel may be generally planar and have a metallic finish or a textured surface finish.

Apron front sink panel assembly

A sink includes a basin configured to hold water, an apron extending from a front of the basin and having a plurality of walls and a rear surface defining an opening in a front of the apron, and a panel assembly removably received in the opening, where an outer perimeter of the panel assembly is spaced apart from an inner perimeter of the plurality of walls of the apron.

A sink includes a front wall, a first side wall, and a second side wall. The front wall includes an inner surface that defines part of a basin of the sink, and an outer surface located opposite the inner surface that is configured to be exposed in front of an opening of a cabinet in which the sink is installed. The front wall includes first and second lateral portions that extend outwardly past the first and second side walls. The first and second lateral portions of the front wall are configured to at least partially overlap a front face of the cabinet adjacent the opening, so as to substantially conceal the opening when the sink is installed thereto.
