Wooden Wall Hung Vanity Units

Wooden wall hung vanity units, handmade to order in our Halifax workshop. Each one fixes to the wall with the floor left clear underneath, the look people often call a floating vanity, and it is finished in a wax that seals the wood against bathroom moisture, so it doesn't swell, lift or peel over time.

We make two designs: one with two soft-close drawers, and one with a drawer over an open shelf. Both come in 500, 600, 800 and 1000mm, or made to your measurements if you're fitting a cloakroom or alcove that won't take a standard size.

More about our Wooden Wall Hung Vanity Units

Why fit a wall hung vanity unit

A wall hung unit fixes to the wall rather than standing on the floor, and that does two useful things in a bathroom. It keeps the floor clear, so a small bathroom or cloakroom feels more open and there's nothing to clean around at floor level. And because it isn't tied to a fixed plinth height, you can set how high the basin sits to suit the people using it. It's the better choice where floor space is tight, or where you want a lighter, more contemporary look than a floor-standing unit gives.

Why the build matters more on a wall hung unit

A wall hung vanity carries its own weight, the basin and the water, all of it hanging off the wall fixings, so how it's built matters more than on a floor-standing unit. A lot of what's sold for this is veneered chipboard or MDF, which absorbs moisture at the edges and the back panel where the plumbing runs. Once the board swells the finish lifts and the carcass softens, which is the last thing you want bearing weight on a wall. Ours are made from wood and finished here for bathroom use, so they hold up where a veneered board gives way, and they can be re-waxed or sanded back over the years rather than thrown out. Where a unit is solid wood throughout, that's noted on its product page.

Fixing it to the wall

A wall hung unit needs a solid fixing. On a masonry wall that's straightforward. On a stud or plasterboard wall it has to be fixed into the studs, or into a batten set behind the plasterboard ,the fixings carry the cabinet, the basin and water, so they can't just go into the board. If you're not certain what your wall is made of, your fitter or plumber will be able to check before it goes up.

Basin, taps and sizes

The units are designed for a sit-on (countertop) basin and supplied without a basin or taps, with the top left undrilled, so you choose the basin, and your plumber drills the tap hole to suit it. Standard widths are 500, 600, 800 and 1000mm, or we'll build to a bespoke width for an awkward space. If you've got an alcove or recess that isn't a standard size, send your measurements before ordering and we'll cut it to fit.
