ᐅ Can a vanity cabinet be mounted on a pre-wall installation?

Normally, the washbasins are mounted on the bolts.

What is normal these days...

Either your washbasin is now hanging quite high or you accounted for this effect beforehand.

Neither, a difference of 5cm (2 inches) up or down doesn’t make much of a difference.
According to DIN 68935, it should be between 85cm and 95cm (33 to 37 inches)... I can measure it this evening.

Neither option really makes a big difference, 5cm (2 inches) higher or lower won’t change much.

Do you have a photo of your mounted washbasin? I am facing the same issue!

The photo is a bit older, but here you go. I completely forgot to measure. However, based on the tiles, you can clearly see that the top edge of the washbasin is around 92-93cm (36-37 inches).

As far as I know (and this is how we did it), at the locations in, for example, the bathroom and kitchen where cabinets are to be mounted, a sheathing of OSB plus drywall or, as a more economical option, a double layer of drywall alone is installed.

It always depends on what was ordered and paid for.

Thank you very much for the photo.
I was actually thinking more of a picture showing the mounting.

I have two washbasins, each 60cm (24 inches) wide. Between them is a socket area of 15cm (6 inches). That means I have a total width of 135cm (53 inches). For this size, or possibly something a little larger, I now want to build a washbasin countertop with two faucets and a shared base cabinet. I have had a pre-wall frame installed for both sinks, from which only the threaded rods and, of course, the drain as well as hot and cold water connections protrude.

Now to my questions:

1. How thick should the metal sheet to be installed be? Is 3–4mm (1/8–5/32 inch) thick sufficient?
2. Should the sheet be made of stainless steel?
3. Does something like this already exist prefabricated from a manufacturer?

Here is how I imagine it: I take a 135cm (53 inches) long, about 30 to 40cm (12 to 16 inches) wide, 4mm (5/32 inch) thick stainless steel sheet and measure where the threaded rods come through and drill holes there. Then I mark the mounting points of the base cabinet on the sheet and drill holes there as well. I countersink the holes and insert flat-head screws with the heads facing the wall. Then I screw the cabinet onto the screws’ threads.

Is this approach feasible, or am I overcomplicating things again?
