help finding kitchen sink ?!
 

All,
I am looking for a stainless steel sink to fit a 480mm x 960mm hole.
Does anyone know what dimension of sink I will need for this ?? most web
sites state the actual sink size - lots are 510 or 500 X 965. What will
fit this hole ??

I think it works out to be sink size is same as drainer board size, plus
50mm all round.

So if the sink is 500mm X 500mm then you say that the drainer is 500mm X
500mm as well, then add 50mm all around these sizes for the roll that sits
on the worktop around the hole.

The example here would then give you:

500mm sink + 500mm drainer + 100mm for the overlap = 1,100mm (1.1mtrs) for
the length of the sink.

500mm sink and drainer + 100mm for the overlap = 600mm (0.6 mtrs) for the
width of the unit.

Hope this makes sense. :-))

Dunno where you got the sizes from

If you only 'think' you know the answer why not leave it to others who 'do'

Now now children! Any more of this and you will have to go back to the
caustic soda.

How does it work out then ? I'm only going by experience of my own findings
in this, so I'd really like to know how you would work out what sink fits
inside a hole of certain size. Or would you just buy a new sinktop and hope
it fits ?

I would have thought something like this might have been easily
answered with a quick trip to a DIY shed where they've got sinks on
display. A quick shufty with a tape measure and you've got the answer,
shirley?

The store staff will probably be happy to help if there is a sale
looking likely :)
