Bathroom furniture comes in different shapes and sizes. There are standing bathroom furniture, hanging bathroom furniture with washbasins and hanging bathroom furniture with basins.If you choose one on legs, the height is already determined. You often have a few centimetres of play by adjusting the legs. A wall-mounted model does not have a standard height. We will discuss the ideal height for your bathroom furniture in this blog.

There is no single answer to the question "how high should a bathroom unit hang?". This is because the ideal height depends on a number of factors. Tall people, for example, will find it more comfortable if the unit hangs a bit higher. But the type of bathroom unit also affects its height. A vanity units with basin, for example, hangs lower than one with a wash basin.

The standard height of a bathroom unit

We recommend hanging the top of the countertop wash basin or countertop wash basin at a height of 80 to 95 cm. This way, you will make pleasant use of your bathroom unit. Because a countertop wash basin is placed on a worktop, the worktop or vanity units for countertop basin should hang lower than if you opt for a basin. This is because a countertop wash basin is lower than a basin.

To calculate how high you need to hang the bathroom unit, subtract the height of the countertop wash basin or basin from the total height. For example, if your countertop wash basin is 30 cm high and you want to hang the bathroom unit at 90 cm, the height of the top is 60 cm. For a unit 85 cm high, the water pipes should be at about 65 cm. Do you want to hang it higher? Then try to raise the water pipes a little too. For a bathroom unit with a height of 90 cm, the pipes should ideally sit at 70 cm.

As we mentioned earlier, for taller people it can be nice to hang the bathroom unit higher. Of course, how high you hang the unit depends on your height.
