This section outlines the steps for properly installing your BLANCO Inteos workstation sink. Ensure all required tools and supplies are available before beginning the installation process.

2.2. Frame and Support Build

The Inteos series requires additional cabinet reinforcement. An inner support frame must be fully installed before the sink and countertop. This frame consists of two side supports attached to the cabinet, and a square or rectangular frame that holds the sink and sits on top of the side supports.

1. Measure Cabinet: Measure the inside width and depth of the cabinet where the sink will be installed.
2. Build Frame: Construct the support frame using hardwood. The sink frame should be 1/8" (3mm) less than the measured inner cabinet length to allow for proper fit.
3. Mark Guidelines: Measure from the top of the cabinet gable down and mark a guideline with a pencil, ensuring a straight line from front to back. The height of this line depends on the sink material: 0.08" (2mm) for Stainless Steel and 1/2" (12.8mm) for Silgranit. The frame for a stainless steel sink will sit higher than a Silgranit sink due to material thickness differences.
4. Install Horizontal Supports: Install horizontal pieces of wood along the marked guidelines using silicone and cabinet screws. These pieces need to provide an adequate ledge to support the sink frame. Recommended wood thickness is 3/4" to 3.5". Repeat for both sides.
5. Инсталирајте вертикални потпори: Measure the distance from the horizontal side support to the bottom of the cabinet. Cut four vertical pieces of wood to this length and pre-drill pilot holes. Install these vertical side supports using silicone and cabinet screws. Repeat for both sides.

3. Mark Sink Reveal: Mark the sink reveal along the sides, front, and back. Mark a 1/8" (3.18mm) reveal along the sides for a snug fit of the cutting board. Mark a 1/2" (12.7mm) reveal along the front and back to provide a sufficient ledge for accessories to function properly.
4. Apply Painter's Tape: Carefully place painter's tape along the marked guidelines on the sink rim. Trim the tape in all four corners to match the corner radius.
5. Tape Countertop Cutout: Tape the inside cut of the countertop along the bottom edge. Ensure the tape does not extend underneath the countertop.
6. Нанесете силикон: Apply a heavy bead of silicone to the untaped part of the sink rim.
