1200mm Vanities Buying Guide The width is only the start. The basin layout, the depth and the way the unit mounts decide whether a 1200mm vanity works in your room. Who a 1200mm vanity suits A 1200mm vanity is a large single basin or a tight double. Check the basin layout on the product, because the width alone does not tell you whether it has two bowls. Basin layouts at 1200mm At 1200mm the layouts split between a centre bowl, a left or right bowl, an offset bowl and a double bowl.

Check what is included A vanity listing can mean a cabinet only, a cabinet with a top, or a cabinet with a top and basin, and the waste and tapware are usually separate. Read the inclusions on the product page before you compare prices. The tap hole position is set when the top is made, so choose your tapware first, or confirm the tap hole count, before you order. Depth and clearance Standard vanity depth is about 450mm to 500mm, and slimline units are shallower, at roughly 320mm to 400mm. Compact depth units are offered at 1200mm, so check the depth on the product when floor space is tight. Leave about 700mm to 750mm clear in front of the vanity so you can stand and move, and check that drawers and doors open fully without hitting the toilet, a shower screen or the bathroom door. Is it really a double? Look at the size option on the product. A double bowl appears in the option name, so a 1200mm label alone does not mean two basins. A double at this width leaves limited bench between the basins, so if you want clear bench space, a single or offset bowl keeps it. Wall hung or floor standing A wall hung 1200mm vanity leaves the floor visible beneath the cabinet and makes cleaning underneath easier. Wall hung furniture needs fixing to a support beam fitted between the studs, with extra noggins added before the wall is sheeted if the cabinet height calls for it, so decide early in a renovat
