APRON SINK APPLICATION STEP 1 - Choose a Mounting Style Exclusive Heritage apron sinks are designed to be installed with the front of the sink protruding out about 3/4” beyond the front countertop edge. Choose a mounting style from Figure A, B or C. Discuss the best mounting style with your customer as counter design can vary.
APRON SINK APPLICATION STEP 4 - Create Template and Cutout For best finish, a proper template and cutout for the countertop is recommended. Exclusive Heritage provides a generic template as a guide only, carefully measure the actual sink for an accurate cut out. (Figure 4) CUT TING TEMPLATE • For the apron option, a 1/4” reveal is recommended. • For the flush mount or built-up mount styles, use the outside edges of the sink profile for tracing the lines to create the countertop cutout.
APRON SINK APPLICATION STEP 6 (CONTINUED) A) For the apron option, apply small beads of silicone adhesive around the top edge of the sink. (Figure 6.2) • Place and align the countertop on top of the sink. With a rubber mallet gently tap the countertop in place. • Some silicone adhesive may squeeze out around the sink edges. Promptly clean up any excess by following the instruction on the sealant’s label. Figure 6.

OUR STORY The late 1930’s and early 1940’s were a period of turmoil and uncertainty. Many of the lifelong dreams of hard working men and women came crashing down as World War II took its toll. My grandfather was one of many men who took pride in what he could create with his bare hands, his vision and his imagination. As an accomplished carpenter for most of his life, he knew the characteristics of great furniture making. He appreciated detail, fine tools, intricate inlays and master craftsmanship.
OUR PRODUCTS There are so many interesting ways to bring together today’s tools with our traditional craftsmanship skills. Imagine how inspiring the creations must be. We value quality, history and elegance to bring you today’s diverse product lines. Although each piece is unique, it carries the tradition of the noble pursuit of my grandfather and others of his same generation.
