Bathroom Fittings Ideas

Bathroom fittings are the items anchored permanently into a bathroom that complete its design. This may include washbasins, showerheads, flushing cisterns and toilets.

Minimalist design goes hand in hand with industrial style. For an ultra-minimalist effect, consider selecting a sink that features slim legs or is wall-hung for reduced size and presence. Industrial faucets add utilitarian charm with spoked pipes and metal actuator plates that evoke utilitarian charm.

Industrial Faucets

No matter if you live in a converted loft or more traditional home, industrial design works beautifully in the bathroom. To achieve its best effect, ensure it can be seen throughout your space - including faucets and shower valves!

For an authentic industrial aesthetic, choose a solid brass faucet with stylish wheel handles to control temperature and water flow. Inspired by industrial steam pipes for a unique modern touch in your bathroom. Plus, this one comes complete with its own matching pop-up drain to complete the look!

Push-button metering faucets offer another viable option, enabling you to precisely set how much water should dispense in a set time period. They're especially suited to commercial and multi-family residential projects since they help save gallons of water over time; in addition, these affordable devices tend to reduce energy costs considerably as well. These comes come in an assortment of finishes ranging from gunmetal grey through oil rubbed bronze and black for your convenience.

Elevated Sink Faucets

Height is an important consideration when pairing a vessel sink with a bath fittings, as its height could cause splashing while washing hands or not reach far enough to cover the sink basin. Conversely, too low may render it inaccessible or make using it challenging and cumbersome; to achieve optimal results ensure the spout extends at least six inches from its base for best performance.

Your sink's number of holes may also influence which kind of faucet you select. A vessel sink requires just one hole for installation while other styles feature multiple. The number of mounting holes on your chosen faucet configuration should correspond with its number of sink holes to ensure proper fit without leaks or other problems arising. You may even be able to find faucets designed with centerset or widespread hole spacing to cover any unnecessary holes on your countertop with an accompanying deck plate.

Wall Hung Toilets with Actuator Plates

Wall hung toilets offer an appealing solution that free up precious floor space in your bathroom by eliminating the need for traditional water tanks. Not only are wall-hung units aesthetically pleasing, they are also easier to maintain than conventional floor units as all components related to flushing are housed within an easily removable panel in the wall for servicing purposes.

Actuator plates for toilet flushing mechanisms come in an assortment of shapes, materials and designs - from budget-friendly plastic options to the more long-term durability offered by stainless steel options.

Consider selecting an actuator plate that coordinates with the rest of your bath fittings for a coordinated look. Also, look into purchasing an in wall carrier in two sizes (2x4" or 2x6"). These carriers can fit between studs easily, accommodating bowl shapes of various heights as well as different manufacturers' toilets.

Console Sinks with Slab Counters

Searching for the ideal sink can be a difficult process in smaller bathrooms. You must consider style, storage needs and floor space when making your decision; many options require you to sacrifice one or more factors.

There is, however, an effective solution: the console sink. A hybrid between pedestal and vanity designs, this design features both countertop and sink mounted to the wall via two or four legs to maximize storage under the sink while leaving enough room beneath for comfortable foot traffic.

Some console sinks feature legs crafted of the same material as their countertops (vitreous china, fireclay or marble) while others use metal legs made from brass, chrome or gold finishes - providing you with plenty of choices between 18" to 30". When selecting your height preference remember that wall-mount console sinks may require more complex installation processes and not every wall may support them.
