Free Standing Bathroom Cabinet Under Sink

Product Overview

A free standing bathroom cabinet under sink is a floor‑mounted storage unit positioned directly beneath a lavatory or sink basin. It provides accessible storage for toiletries, cleaning supplies, or linens without requiring wall anchorage, which is advantageous in structures where wall studs are insufficient or where quick reconfiguration is needed.

The cabinet rests on leveling feet or casters that distribute load to the floor, allowing installation on uneven surfaces while maintaining a stable center of gravity. Typical units support a static load of 150 kg evenly distributed across the top surface, making them suitable for heavy‑duty environments such as hospitals or industrial washrooms.

Design and Construction

The cabinet framework is built from formed steel channels with a minimum thickness of 1.2 mm, providing rigidity while keeping weight manageable. Side panels are attached using full‑penetration welds at corners, followed by grinding to a smooth finish that eliminates sharp edges.

Panel thickness varies from 18 mm for standard grade plywood to 25 mm for high‑impact composite, with edge banding applied to prevent moisture ingress. Interior shelves are adjustable on 25 mm increments, secured by steel brackets that resist shear forces up to 50 kg per shelf.

Material Options

Stainless steel AISI 304, brushed finish, suitable for corrosive environments and frequent cleaning with disinfectants.
Cold‑rolled steel with powder‑coat coating (minimum 80 µm thickness), available in RAL 9010 white or custom colors.
Marine‑grade plywood (BS 1088) faced with high‑pressure laminate (HPL) offering resistance to water splashes and impact.
Solid surface composite (acrylic‑based) for seamless appearance and low porosity.

Shelf Load Capacity	50 kg per shelf	Static load, evenly distributed

Typical Applications

In healthcare facilities, the cabinet provides sterile storage for supplies while allowing easy floor cleaning beneath the unit, reducing microbial harborage points.

Hospitality installations benefit from the quick‑release leveling system, enabling housekeeping staff to reposition the cabinet for deep cleaning without tools.

Industrial workshops use the heavy‑duty steel variant to store safety gear and cleaning agents, where resistance to chemical splashes and mechanical impact is required.

Quality Assurance

Each unit undergoes visual inspection for weld continuity, followed by a 10‑minute salt‑spray test (ASTM B117) on stainless steel variants to verify corrosion resistance.

Powder‑coat finishes are checked for adhesion using a cross‑hatch test (ASTM D3359) and thickness measured with a magnetic gauge to ensure ≥80 µm.

Load testing applies a gradual increase to 200 kg on the top surface; deflection is recorded and must remain below 2 mm to pass.

Customization Options

Alternate foot designs: fixed glides, lockable casters, or seismic brackets.
Interior accessories: pull‑out bins, towel bars, or integrated electrical outlets.
Door configurations: single‑hinged, double‑hinged, or sliding panels with soft‑close hinges.
Lengthwise splits for dual‑sink installations, maintaining structural continuity via a central stretcher.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the cabinet dimensions be modified to fit non‑standard sink openings?

Yes, width and depth can be adjusted in 10 mm increments; height adjustment is achieved via leveling feet or optional stretcher plates.

What information is required to obtain a quotation?

Please provide the desired material, overall dimensions, door style, accessory list, and any required certifications (e.g., ISO 9001, CE).

How are cabinets protected during overseas shipment?

Units are packed in triple‑wall corrugated cartons with corner protectors, wrapped in polyethylene film, and secured on pallets with strapping; shock‑absorbing foam is added for corners.
