Tools and Materials
Before You Begin
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Siliconized acrylic caulk must
be used to secure the lavatory to the vanity. Do not use 100%
silicone sealant, which will damage the finish of the vanity.
Observe all local building codes.
Prior to installation, unpack the new product and inspect it for
damage. Return the product to its protective carton until you are
ready to install it.
Make sure the finished wall is straight and plumb, and the floor
is flat and perpendicular to the finished wall.
This vanity is designed to allow most base moldings to pass
behind the vanity. Remove any moldings that may inhibit the
vanity from being flush against the finished wall.
It is recommended that the drawer be removed from the vanity
before beginning the vanity installation. Doing so will ease the
installation process. Refer to the section contained in this guide
for proper removal.
