FAQs

What are the exact external dimensions of the unit?

The unit has a width of 600mm, a height of 590mm, and a depth of 450mm.

Are the handles easy to remove if I want to change them?

Yes, the Matt Anthracite handles are typically attached with screws from the inside of the drawer, allowing for replacement with standard-sized handles.

What type of waste fitting do I need for the basin?

You will need a standard unslotted basin waste for the chrome overflow. If you opt for a separately purchased black overflow kit, you will need a slotted waste.

Can I install this unit myself?

Installation requires mounting to the wall. While possible for DIY enthusiasts with the right tools and knowledge of wall types, professional installation is recommended for safety and proper alignment.

What is the warranty period for this vanity unit?

Please refer to the manufacturer's warranty information provided with the product for specific details on the warranty period and coverage.

Is the Walnut finish water-resistant?

The unit is constructed from moisture-resistant melamine board, designed to withstand typical bathroom humidity. However, it is not waterproof, and prolonged exposure to water should be avoided.

Does the basin have an overflow hole?

Yes, all basins are supplied with a chrome overflow as standard. Images may show black overflows for display purposes only.

Troubleshooting

Unit not level on wall

Adjust wall fixings or use shims behind the unit to achieve a level installation.

Drawers not closing smoothly

Check for obstructions within the drawer runners. Ensure the unit is securely mounted and not flexing. Verify Hettich hinge alignment.

Water pooling in the basin

Ensure the basin waste is correctly installed and the overflow is not blocked. Check the basin plug seal.

Melamine surface scratched

Minor scratches may be buffed with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, consider a melamine repair kit or touch-up pen matching the Walnut effect. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

The unit is designed for wall mounting. Ensure you have the appropriate wall fixings for your wall type (plasterboard, brick, etc.). Follow the provided installation manual carefully for secure mounting. The basin requires standard plumbing connections for tap and waste.

Compatibility:

  • Basin Taps: Compatible with standard single-hole basin taps. Ensure the tap reach is suitable for the basin depth.
  • Waste Fittings: Requires a standard unslotted basin waste if using a chrome overflow, or a slotted waste if a black overflow kit (purchased separately) is used.
  • Mirror: No specific mirror is included; any wall-mounted bathroom mirror can be used.
  • Overflow: Comes with a standard chrome overflow. A black overflow kit can be purchased separately.

Care:

  • Clean the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the melamine finish.
  • Wipe spills immediately to prevent moisture ingress.
  • For the basin, use non-abrasive bathroom cleaners. Periodically check and clean the overflow.
  • Ensure the unit remains securely fixed to the wall.
