IMPORTANT
To install this product, the wall must be opened to the studs. This installation might require custom
placement of studs relative to the position of the product in the room. Please read carefully th e
instruction related to your lavatory model.
1. WALL PREPARATION
The Wall-mounted Lavatory is designed to be wall-mounted and needs special wall preparation.
1. Make sure that walls and floor are straight and level.
2. Determine the desired location of the lavatory.
3. The distance between studs is determined by the lavatory size you purchased. Refer to
diagrams below to find the correct stud position to mount your lavatory.

2. STUD PREPARATION (for metal stud preparation, see p.10)
Once you have positioned the studs to the correct center-to-center distance for your lavatory
model, you can choose your lavatory’s height. The recommended height would be to position
the bottom of the bracket arm at 31 13/16” (80.8cm) from the floor to achieve a 34 1/2" total
height with the lavatory (SEE GRAPHIC ON P 6). Once your height is set, mark a level horizontal
line on the studs to represent the bottom line of this arm. Repeat this step on all studs requiring a
bracket.
Distances measured from center bracket, tolerance of +/- 1/8’’ [0.3cm]

3. BRACKETS ATTACHMENT
Secure in place the wall bracket as deep into the wall as possible. We recommend each
bracket be positioned 1” deeper than the wall covering using 6 screws #10 or #12 (not
provided) for each bracket. Repeat the bracket attachment installation with all brackets
required for your lavatory model.
IMPORTANT
Make sure the brackets are perfectly level.
NOTE

decorative trim, follow the same procedure.

4. DRYWALL PREPARATION
Once all brackets are mounted in place and with the correct distances between them
(specified for your lavatory model) you can finish the room’s drywall installation and paint.
Finished wall should be built around the exposed arms of the wall brackets in place, tight holes
should be cut around the bracket arms.
IMPORTANT
It’s recommended to test the lavatory with decorative trim assembly fitting over the installed
wall brackets before closing the studs with drywall.

RECOMMENDATION FOR INSTALLATION OF BRACKET SYSTEM TO WALLS CONSTRUCTED
WITH METAL STUDS
The appropriate mounting hardware and the following guidelines need to be used to properly
reinforce metal studs for the installation of Wetstyle wall mounted bracket systems and to maintain
product warranties.
IMPORTANT
It is important to always use a qualified contractor when wall mounting lavatories or vanities. Units
that are improperly installed may fail. Product warranties are voided when the product has not been
properly installed.
METAL STUD REINFORCEMENT OR REPLACEMENT
The metal studs to be used for mounting need to be strengthened by either a) inserting wood
studs that run the entire length and width of the metal studs, or b) to replace the metal studs
with wood studs and brace them at the top and bottom. Wood studs must be 2" x 4" or greater,
smaller studs are not suitable. It is important to have a qualified contractor to determine the
correct size of the wood to create a secure fit and ensure safety.
FOR EXISTING CONSTRUCTION
Remove the wall covering from floor to ceiling to expose the entire length of the metal studs
that are to be used. From this point, reinforce or replace the metal studs to be used followin g
the procedures for above.
OPTIONAL METAL TUBING MOUNTING REQUIREMENTS
In place of wood studs for reinforcement, metal tubing can be installed. Metal tubing must be
minimum 2” x 3” Thin Walled Steel Tube that run from top to bottom and properly braced .
Different tubing thicknesses are available so it is important to have a qualified contractor to
determine the correct thickness to create a secure fit and ensure safety. No additional wood
studs are required for reinforcement.
