1000mm Short-Projection Wall-Hung Vanity — 395mm Deep for the 1.5-Metre Bathroom

Most 1000mm vanities on the market are 450 to 470mm deep, and in a Victorian terrace bathroom that 70mm is the difference between a room you can turn around in and a room where the door catches the basin. This one is 1000mm wide and 395mm deep — full useful width along the wall, short projection out from it — which is the geometry British bathrooms actually have: a 1.5m wide room still keeps over a metre of floor in front of the unit, and a 700mm working zone is left even when a WC sits alongside. Short projection only works if the storage survives it, so the depth comes out of the front-to-back waste, not out of the drawer: both drawers are full-width metal boxes at 340mm internal depth, which still takes a 300mm bottle standing upright. The fronts are stone-oat matt lacquer at 5 to 8 gloss units, split into two equal drawers with a 3mm shadow gap and one 128mm brushed brass bar pull each. The top is a one-piece glazed ceramic counter with an integrated rectangular bowl, drilled with a single centred 35mm tap hole for a UK monobloc mixer rather than the three-hole widespread pattern a US program would specify. Wall-hung on a steel rail, 150mm clear underneath, Blum TandemBox soft-close throughout. This is a 20-piece OEM/ODM programme for UK and Irish importers, merchants and bathroom showroom groups.

  • 1000mm W x 395mm D x 520mm H carcass — full width on the wall, 55 to 75mm shallower than the 450–470mm units that dominate the size, so a 1.5m wide British bathroom keeps over 1m of clear floor and the door still opens past the basin
  • Short projection without losing storage: both drawers are full-width 340mm internal-depth metal boxes on 30kg runners, deep enough to stand a 300mm cleaner bottle upright — the usual failure point of a shallow vanity is a drawer that only holds towels
  • Stone-oat matt lacquer fronts at 5 to 8 gloss units over a two-coat polyurethane system on 18mm MDF, matched to a supplied sample or to RAL 9002 / NCS S 1005-Y10R; matt rather than gloss because a matt face hides fingermarks around the pull and does not mirror the wall tiles
  • Two equal-height drawers with a continuous 3mm shadow-gap reveal and one 128mm brushed brass bar pull centred on each — a bar pull rather than a knob because a 1000mm drawer front looks unbalanced with a single small knob and needs a two-point fix
  • One-piece glazed white ceramic basin counter, 1000 x 395mm, with an integrated rectangular bowl 480 x 300 x 110mm, soft radius corners, an overflow and a single centred 35mm tap hole for a UK monobloc mixer; three-hole and no-hole (for a wall-mounted spout) versions on the same mould
  • The ceramic top is a single fired piece rather than a stone slab with a bonded bowl: no silicone joint around the rim to discolour, no gel coat to chalk, and a surface that takes a bleach-based bathroom cleaner without dulling
  • 18mm plywood carcass with sealed ABS edges and an 8mm moisture-resistant back panel — plywood rather than chipboard in a short-projection box because the reduced depth puts the wall-fixing load closer to the drawer line, and a wet bathroom is the worst place to find out that chipboard swells
  • Wall-hung on a galvanised steel hanging rail supplied with the unit, with two adjustable brackets that set the 150mm floor clearance and allow the front edge to be levelled after tiling; the rail is fixed to the wall before the carcass goes on, so one fitter can hang a 1000mm unit alone
  • Blum TandemBox soft-close runners rated 30kg with full extension, Blum clip-on concealed hinges where a door variant is specified, or a cost-equivalent Chinese runner set on the same drilling for entry price points
  • UK plumbing interface as standard: 1 1/4in waste outlet, 35mm tap hole, and a 60mm service notch cut in the back panel for 1/2in flexi tails so the trap can sit behind the drawer line instead of inside it
  • Flat-packed in a 5-layer carton with foam corner blocks, the ceramic top in a separate crate with a rigid face board; a 20-piece mixed order lands at approximately 2.1 cbm with the tops crated

Specifications

Programme scopeWall-hung short-projection vanity, 1000mm wide, supplied as cabinet only, cabinet with ceramic basin top, or a set with a monobloc mixer and waste; 600 / 800 / 1000 / 1200mm widths on the same 395mm depth, drawer line and drilling programme, with the drawer split adjusted so every width carries the same pull height.
Dimensions1000mm W x 395mm D x 520mm H carcass; 545mm to the top of the ceramic deck; 150mm clear under the base; drawer fronts 1000 x 250mm each with a 3mm gap; basin bowl 480 x 300 x 110mm; back service notch 60 x 300mm for flexi tails. Custom widths from 500 to 1400mm in 50mm steps against a drawing.
Carcass18mm plywood with sealed ABS edges, 8mm moisture-resistant back panel, 32mm system drilling, glued and dowelled corners; 18mm E1 chipboard available as a cost-down for dry inland projects. Galvanised steel hanging rail and two adjustable wall brackets supplied per unit.
Fronts and finish18mm MDF drawer fronts in stone-oat matt lacquer at 5 to 8 gloss units, two-coat polyurethane over a pigmented primer, oven-cured; Taber abrasion 200 revolutions and a 72-hour 40 degrees C / 90 percent RH cycle with no gloss shift or edge lift. Slab fronts as standard; shaker, J-pull handleless and fluted fronts on the same carcass.
Basin topOne-piece glazed white ceramic counter, 1000 x 395mm, integrated rectangular bowl with overflow, single centred 35mm tap hole; options on the same mould are three-hole (for a traditional mixer) and no-hole (for a wall-mounted spout). Ceramic fired at 1200 degrees C, glaze thickness 0.8 to 1.0mm, load tested to 150kg on the deck.
HardwareBlum TandemBox soft-close full-extension runners rated 30kg as the specified option, or a cost-equivalent Chinese runner set on the same 32mm drilling; 128mm brushed brass bar pulls with 128mm centres; Blum clip-on hinges with three-way adjustment on door variants. Brass finish is a PVD coating, not a lacquer, so it does not wear through at the pull edge.
InstallationWall-hung on a steel rail fixed with six anchors to a solid or studded wall; the rail goes up first and the carcass hangs on it, so the unit can be levelled and the 150mm clearance set before the top is bedded. Two people, roughly 45 minutes per unit including the top; an English-language fitting sheet with anchor specification ships in the carton.
PackagingCabinet flat in a 5-layer carton with foam corner blocks, approximately 104 x 42 x 24cm and 26kg gross; ceramic top in a separate crate with a rigid face board and a non-woven sleeve; basin and tap, where supplied, boxed inside the crate void. A 20-piece mixed order is approximately 2.1 cbm with tops crated, 1.55 cbm cabinet-only.

Product FAQ

Why 395mm deep instead of the usual 450–470mm?
Because the constraint in most British bathrooms is depth, not width. A 1000mm unit at 450mm deep in a 1.5m wide room leaves a metre of floor and the door often fouls the basin; at 395mm it leaves 1.1m and the door clears. The 55 to 75mm saved is not cosmetic — it is the difference between a room that meets the clear-space guidance used in UK accessible-bathroom design and one that has to be re-planned. The trade-off is drawer depth, which is why both drawers here are 340mm internal rather than the 260 to 280mm you get when a manufacturer simply cuts the back off a standard box. If a project has the room for 450mm, order the 450mm carcass on the same fronts and skip this model.
Is a short-projection unit harder to install on a stud wall?
No, but the fixing pattern matters more. A shallow unit puts the load closer to the wall plane and lower down, so the hanging rail has to be anchored into studs or into a solid wall rather than into plasterboard alone — six anchors at 150mm centres is what the rail is drilled for. On a stud wall, two of the six should land on studs; where they cannot, a plywood pattress or a pair of toggle anchors rated 25kg each is enough for a 26kg cabinet plus contents. The rail is supplied with the unit and is fixed before the carcass goes on, so the unit can be hung and levelled by one fitter before the ceramic top is bedded.
Why a one-piece ceramic top rather than a stone slab with a bonded basin?
Because the joint is the failure point. A stone top with a bonded bowl has a silicone ring around the rim that discolours in a bathroom, and a gel-coated composite bowl chalks with bleach-based cleaners. A single fired ceramic counter has no rim joint, no gel coat and no separate bowl to re-seal; the bowl is part of the same piece, so the only sealed joint is the one between the top and the cabinet. The limitation is size — ceramic is fired flat, so 1400mm is the practical maximum before the piece needs a different mould — which is why the 1200mm and above sizes can also be quoted with a sintered stone top on the same carcass.
Can the tap hole be changed for a UK monobloc or a wall-mounted spout?
Yes, and it is set at the mould stage rather than drilled afterwards. The standard top is a single centred 35mm hole for a UK monobloc mixer; the same mould runs a three-hole version at 180mm centres for a traditional bridge mixer, and a no-hole version for a wall-mounted spout where the plumbing comes out of the wall above the unit. Because these are separate moulds, they cannot be mixed within one production run below 50 pieces — inside a 20-piece order, one tap-hole pattern per model.
How does a 20-piece order work across widths and colours?
The 395mm depth, the drawer line, the pull drilling and the carcass construction are identical across widths, so a 20-piece lot can mix 600, 800, 1000 and 1200mm units freely, and can split between two standard colours without a second set-up. A custom RAL or NCS colour starts at 50 pieces in one colour, because a colour change means a spray run and a booth clean. Sample 7 to 10 days, production 30 to 35 days, FOB Ningbo or CIF Felixstowe, Southampton and Dublin; factory is 20,000 square metres with 16 years of export programmes behind it.
