Kitchen Fixtures

A kitchen sink may be a basic necessity in your home, but the designs that are available today are far from basic. Choosing a kitchen sink and related fixtures such as faucets and handles requires you to make decisions about:

• Materials--kitchen sinks can be crafted from stainless steel, acrylic, cast iron, fireclay and other non-porous materials (not glass, however)
• Bowls--choose one, two or three-bowl sinks for your kitchen
• Shape and size--choose a shape that aligns with your cabinet and counter design. Shapes such as corner sinks can help you work with a smaller or more unique layout of your room
• Style and color--choose the styles and shades that complement the overall style of your home

Kitchen Sinks Are Just the Beginning

Once you have chosen the type of sink that will suit your needs, fixtures and accessories can help you round out your kitchen and contribute to your personal style. Faucets are available in one-handle, two-handle and pull-out spray configurations and can be wall-mounted or mounted on your sink or counter. Lotion and soap dispensers can be built into your sink and counter area for added convenience. A separate hot water dispenser and water filter are other additions to consider when selecting your kitchen fixtures. The styles for accessories such as these range from the traditional to very elegant.
