It hangs on two bolts and everything depends on the wall
The best wall-hung basins for 2026
A wall-hung basin transfers its own weight, plus a full bowl of water, plus whoever leans on it, into two bolts in a wall. That makes the wall the first question and the basin the second: solid masonry takes ordinary fixings, a stud partition needs a noggin or a proper frame, and the manufacturer's instructions are the authority on both. Nothing here replaces them. On the ceramic itself, three numbers do the work: width, projection — how far it sticks into the room, which is what makes a small bathroom workable — and fixing hole spacing, which decides whether it can land on an existing pair of bolts. Then the plumbing details that people discover late: how many tap holes are drilled (zero, one or three, and they are not interchangeable), whether there is an overflow, and the waste diameter. We compare width and projection, fixing hole spacing, number of tap holes, whether an overflow is present, waste diameter, material, and weight.
