Drop-in kitchen sinks, also known as top-mount or self-rimming sinks, feature a lip or rim around the edge that rests on top of the countertop. Unlike other sink types, the sink simply inserts into the countertop.
Drop-in sink installation is typically faster and less expensive than other sink types. The installer uses a jigsaw or other cutter to roughly cut holes into the countertop, and the sink is placed inside the hole. The sink’s rim forms a close seal with the countertop surface.
Yes! This installation type is a great choice if you have a laminate countertop, since these sinks can “drop” into any countertop material. A clean, polished edge around the sink opening is not required.
Advantages of an undermount sink include superior ergonomics and easy cleaning, but requires a polished edge around the sink opening. Drop-in sinks can “drop” into any countertop material. This style also frees up more base cabinet space for storing and accessing cleaning supplies right under the sink.
If you are replacing your existing drop-in sink with a new one, measure the interior width of the sink top at the widest spot, and then subtract 4-inches. For laminate countertops with a backsplash, you can install a drop-in sink that is up to 20 1/2" deep. Consult with your installer to ensure that enough space is left behind the sink for the backsplash, faucet fixtures and other accessories.
You should follow the manufacturer’s instructions for properly cleaning and maintaining your SILGRANIT or stainless steel drop-in kitchen sink. Browse our helpful guides on how to clean SILGRANIT and cleaning a stainless steel sink for more tips.
