Granite Sink Worktops with Grooved Drainer Cuts

Honed gray granite worktops combine an undermount-sink opening, six shallow drainer grooves and a matching rear backsplash. Compare left and right sink layouts and 1800 or 2100 mm top lengths, with the cutout, groove fall, finished edges and support interfaces on one fabrication schedule.

Honed Granite Worktop with a Cut-In Drainer

30 mm Natural Granite Top

The top is honed fine-grained gray natural granite, 30 mm nominal thickness, with finished edges on the front and exposed ends and a cutout edge prepared for the undermount bowl.

Six Grooves Drain Toward the Sink

Six parallel grooves run 400 mm from the sink-opening edge into the drainer area. Each is 5 mm wide at 50 mm center pitch, with a 1-to-3 mm depth change toward the opening to create a 2 mm fall.

Matching Stone Backsplash

A 100 mm-high, 20 mm-thick granite backsplash follows the rear worktop edge, with worktop, backsplash, finished ends and sink fixing interface numbered together in the fabrication set.

Sink Handing and Worktop Lengths

Three order configurations with the dimensions and supplied components shown individually.

1800 mm Top with Left Sink

The main layout puts the 500 × 400 mm opening at the left and the six drainer grooves to its right. A 650 mm worktop depth leaves 125 mm stone margins in front of and behind the opening.

1800 mm Top with Right Sink

The mirrored layout moves the sink opening to the right and the drainer to the left. The opening size, groove width, length, pitch and fall remain the same on the handed cutting plan.

2100 mm Top with Left Sink

The longer format retains the left-hand opening and right-hand drainer within a 2100 mm top. The additional 300 mm length extends the clear working surface beyond the drainer zone.

Sink Template, Supports and Backsplash Joints

Match the Opening to the Sink Rim

The 500 × 400 mm opening with R 20 corners is the configuration basis. The fabrication drawing carries the final bowl template, rim overlap, cutout edge finish and underside fixing positions together.

Support the Stone Around the Opening

The cabinet and support plan locates bearing surfaces around the sink and along the worktop. The 30 mm stone section, opening corners, groove zone and any field joints are reviewed as one supported assembly.

Coordinate Rear and End Joints

The rear backsplash follows the wall line and worktop length. The room detail identifies wall joints, backsplash ends, adjacent surfaces and any faucet or accessory openings in the top.

Granite Sink Worktop Fabrication Schedule

Top Length and Sink Handing

Identify 1800 mm left or right sink, or 2100 mm left sink. List the 650 mm depth, 30 mm stone thickness and location of each exposed edge.

Opening and Drainer Fabrication

Include the sink cutout, corner radii, edge treatment and six 5 mm grooves. Record 400 mm groove length, 50 mm pitch and the 1-to-3 mm depth profile.

Backsplash and Mounting Interfaces

Schedule the matching 100 × 20 mm backsplash, sink fixing arrangement, support interfaces and any faucet/accessory drilling as separate fabrication items.

Piece Protection and Transport

Number tops and backsplashes by room and orientation. The packing schedule protects cutout corners, grooved faces and finished edges, with piece counts and destination on each crate.

Granite Drainer Worktop Questions

How is water directed from the drainer to the sink?

Six parallel grooves open into the sink cutout. Each runs 400 mm and changes from 1 mm deep at its outer end to 3 mm deep at the sink, creating a 2 mm fall toward the opening.

What sink-opening size is used?

The cutting basis is 500 × 400 mm with R 20 corners. The final sink template sets rim overlap, edge finishing and fixing positions before the stone is fabricated.

Can the sink and drainer be mirrored?

Yes. The 1800 mm top has left-sink/right-drainer and right-sink/left-drainer layouts. The 2100 mm option retains the left sink and adds working length beyond the right drainer.

How much stone remains below the grooves?

At the deepest 3 mm part of a groove, the 30 mm top retains 27 mm of stone. Cabinet support and the sink-opening region are carried on the same worktop assembly detail.

Is the backsplash part of the supply?

The set includes a matching 100 mm-high, 20 mm-thick rear backsplash. Its length follows the top, with wall joints, ends and any returns identified on the room drawing.

What is required for a fabrication quotation?

Send the room plan, sink template, top length and handing, exposed-edge list, accessory holes and support interfaces, and the quote lists the top, drainer work, backsplash, fixings and protected packing.
