The cabinet should be adapted to the depth, width or length or radius of the washbasin bowl. Of course, the cabinet's resistance to moisture is important, so choose a model made of a material resistant to temperature changes and evaporation. What else should you remember?

Choosing a vanity unit for a small bathroom
Vanity units should be as small as possible to fit into a small bathroom. Of course, it is crucial to match the vanity to the dimensions of the cabinet and the opening cut in it. You can choose different types of bathroom cabinets. Freestanding cabinets are bathroom furniture that take up more space, so where space is limited, a hanging cabinet will work better.
You can choose the right countertop sinks for it. Double or even triple cabinets and a bathroom island are of course a solution suitable for a larger bathroom. Bathroom furniture for a small bathroom must be limited to a minimum. Next to the sink cabinet, you can choose a column cabinet.
In order not to have to adjust the dimensions of the cabinet to the sink, you can decide on a practical solution, which is a cabinet with a sink . The functionality of cabinets with drawers is important, so if you have a small bathroom, you should choose a solution so that the sink with the siphon takes up as little space in the cabinet as possible. A sink with a countertop can create additional storage space.
How wide should a sink cabinet be?
When choosing a sink cabinet that will work well in a small bathroom, you should choose its dimensions appropriately. Those with a width of 45 to 60 cm work best. You should pay attention to the number of drawers or shelves. It is worth choosing a cabinet that can be matched with a countertop sink, which takes up less space, so you can use the surface for storing things, both towels and cleaning products. A free-standing sink cabinet is a good choice for a larger bathroom.
A model equipped with legs can add lightness to the arrangement. Hanging washbasin cabinets can have special holes for the siphon and allow for its easy installation. If you have more space, you can choose double washbasin cabinets. A larger bathroom cabinet will allow you to install two washbasins. In this case, furniture with a width of 120 cm will work well. Creating free space between the furniture and the floor ensures greater ergonomics.
You can use it to place a bowl or a laundry basket. The countertop can create a parallel surface with the sink when it is recessed. The material from which the cabinet is made is important. It should be protected against moisture. Even properly impregnated wood will work, although slightly lighter cabinets made of wood-based materials such as MDF are more often chosen. The cabinet should create a parallel surface with the wall. It is worth using grouting to secure the gaps.
What to remember when installing a washbasin cabinet?
Furniture such as wall-mounted sink cabinets should be mounted to the wall. First, it is necessary to prepare the water installation so that the faucet and drain can be connected. Then it is necessary to measure the mounting holes and mark them in one line. Then you start drilling. In the case of tiles, this should be done very carefully. Then you should initially try on the cabinet. If they are not factory-made, it may be necessary to drill holes for the bowl and drain.
Connecting a countertop sink to a cabinet may require making a hole in the countertop. In this case, remember to keep a distance of at least 10 cm from the edge. The elements should be fitted and the cabinet should be screwed together in such a way that the elements do not move. You should also remember to secure the edges of the hole with sanitary silicone. Finally, you need to connect the tap and the drain with the siphon.
