Apron Front Stainless Steel Sink

Installation Instructions

1: PREPARE THE BASE CABINET

1. Apply painter’s tape to the cabinets for marking and cutting purposes.

This will protect the cabinet from damage while cutting.

2. Position the template (provided with your sink) on the front of the

cabinet, ush to the top and centered; secure with tape.

3. Trace the template and remove.

4. Using a sharp saw blade, carefully cut the cabinet on the traced line.

d IMPORTANT: The cabinet must be installed, secured, plumb, and level BEFORE

installing the sink.

d IMPORTANT: Schön recommends providing the cabinet maker with the actual

sink prior to cabinet fabrication. Before installing the sink, verify that the

distance from the top of the doors to the top of the cabinet is greater than the

apron front.

d IMPORTANT: Double check the measurement of the cabinet cutout and

make any necessary adjustments by either adding ller strips or sanding the

opening.

1. Cut two lengths of support framing to extend horizontally along the

inside walls on each side of the cabinet.

2. Measure and mark the support mounting locations; ensure the sink rim

will sit at or slightly below the top of the cabinet.

3. Position and level the supports.

4. Secure the supports with construction adhesive and screws (not

provided).

5. Cut (4) lengths of support framing to extend from the bottom of the

horizontal supports to the oor of the cabinet.

6. Secure the vertical supports with construction adhesive and screws (not

provided).

d IMPORTANT: Long screws may damage adjacent cabinets. Ensure the screws

are long enough to secure the support framing, but short enough not to go

through the walls of adjacent cabinets.

d IMPORTANT: A custom sink base cabinet and support framing is required for

proper installation.

d IMPORTANT: Make sure the top of the sink does not extend above the top of the

cabinet; otherwise it will interfere with countertop installation.
