Vanities & Mirrors

Plan the vanity and mirror as one bathroom zone

Start with the usable wall, not the nominal cabinet width. Record wall width, available depth, plumbing positions and clearances for doors, drawers, shower screens and nearby fittings. A wall-hung vanity can expose more floor, while a floor-standing model changes the visual weight and cleaning access; storage needs should decide between them before colour and handles.

Treat the cabinet, top, basin and tapware as one specification. Components with the same advertised width do not necessarily share cut-outs, fixing points, tap holes or waste positions. Confirm compatibility from the supplier drawings, especially when combining a cabinet with a separate top or above-counter basin.

The mirror should respond to the vanity width, ceiling height and lighting rather than simply matching the cabinet edge. For shaving cabinets, check recess or surface mounting, wall cavity, cabinet depth and door clearance. Illuminated mirrors and cabinets may also need power planned by a licensed electrician. Browse the dedicated shaving cabinet and mirror range after the available wall zone is measured.

For examples of balancing storage, proportions and the two focal elements, read our vanity and mirror ideas. Use those ideas to shape the layout, then return to the product drawings for final dimensions and installation requirements.
