11. Laminate bench top installation instructions.
1 Position your bench tops.
Place your bench tops into position making
sure that the bench top over hangs the front
of the cabinets 35mm.
2 Make a template for difficult tops.
Make a ply template to fit to walls if
necessary. If in between two walls then mark
& fit one end then the other end measuring
how short the template is and use this to
mark and fit the bench top.
Tip, You can use the lid off the top of the
delivery box for this purpose if you like. The
back edge of the bench tops should be flush
with the back of the cabinets.
3 Positioning of the sink.
Position the sink so that the sink bowls fall
inside the sink carcase.
Tip, Make sure that you allow for the sink clips
to the sides and front of the carcase.
“IE” Standard is 60mm from the front of
the bench top to the sink cut out hole.
4 Marking the sink position.
Mark the sink position at the corners onto the
bench top.
Tip, You can use grey duct tape or masking
tape on the bench top so that it is easier to
see and will later protect the top from
damage whilst cutting the hole.
