KNOWING ABOUT BATHROOM CABINET DIMENSIONS

1. Single Sink Measurement

If you want to make a cabinet for single sink in your bathroom, the first thing you need to decide is that for whom it is supposed to be; whether it is for adults or children.

If it is for adults, you need to measure the countertop height and the standard measure is 31 inches.

As for children, you need to make it shorter; 25 up to 28 inches will be great while the width and depth should be the same as the one for adults.



When it comes to the other sides’ measurements, there are also standard dimensions of them.

The first one is the width. Standard bathroom cabinet width is 24 inches, 30 inches, 36 inches, 48 inches, and 60 inches. But it can also be extended more for some specific purposes.

The second one is the height. The height should be ranged from 31 up to 36 inches. Then, the last one is the depth which is supposed to be 17 up to 24 inches at maximum.

2. Double Sink Measurement

For double sinks, you can change the measurements a little bit. For example while the standard width is supposed to be in range of 24 up to 60 inches, it should be extended up to 72 inches.

These measurements will help to make the gap between each sink. Also, there will be more places to put your bathroom needs like mugs and organizers.

In its standard measurement, 17 inches is the minimum measure for bathroom cabinet’s depth. But for double sinks, you need to make it into 22 inches at minimum. As for the height of the bathroom cabinet, let it stay at 31 up to 36 inches.




In case that you want to make double sink cabinet yet one of them is for children, then it’s not the height or the depth you should think about; it is the height.

To make it happen, simply use double sink measurement in width and depth measurements yet use single sink measurement to arrange the height. In this case, it is easier to make two different cabinets though.
