Farmhouse Kitchen Sink Double Bowl Apron Sink
Two equal bowls behind a flat steel apron
What This Product Is And Who It Is For
A double bowl apron front sink in stainless steel: two equal bowls, a low divider and a flat apron that shows at the front of the cabinet.
It is bought by kitchen brands and cabinet manufacturers selling farmhouse and shaker ranges in a metal finish rather than fireclay.
The apron is part of the fabricated body, so the front face and the bowls are one unit.
Why Buyers Specify It
Wash and rinse separated
Two equal bowls let one side hold soapy water while the other stays clear for rinsing.
Apron takes the wear
The exposed front takes the knocks that would otherwise mark a painted cabinet door.
Lighter than fireclay
A steel apron sink can go into a standard base unit without the extra support a fireclay sink needs.
No glaze to craze
Fireclay aprons craze and stain along the front edge. Steel does not.
What It Fixes In A Buying Programme
Fireclay aprons are heavy and need extra support
A steel apron sink drops into a standard base unit.
Painted cabinet fronts get wet and mark
The apron takes the splash instead of the door.
One large bowl gives nowhere to rinse
Two equal bowls keep washing and rinsing apart.
Who It Is For
- Kitchen furniture brands who need an apron sink that fits their standard carcass
- Importers stocking farmhouse ranges in metal as well as ceramic
- Distributors serving independent kitchen fitters
Technical Features
- Two equal bowls with a low central divider
- Flat exposed apron front
- Brushed interior and apron face
- Tight corner radius for wiping out
- Sound-deadening treatment on the underside (specify at order)
Where It Ends Up
Farmhouse and shaker kitchens
The apron detail is the point of the style; steel makes it available in a metal finish.
Cabinet manufacturers' own ranges
Fits a standard base unit, so the cabinet range does not need a special carcass.
Rural and holiday-let kitchens
Heavy use, and nothing on the front to chip.
Utility and boot rooms
Two bowls are useful for anything that is not dishes.

Materials
Fabricated from stainless steel sheet — 304 for the interior and the apron unless a different grade is agreed.
Underside treatment for noise and condensation is available; say whether you need it, because it changes the packing weight.
Customisation Options

- Apron height and overall width to your carcass
- Corner radius, from tight to fully rounded
- Sound-deadening pads and anti-condensation coating
How It Is Made
Cut and fold
Bowls and apron are cut from sheet and folded up as separate elements.
Weld the corners
Every internal corner is welded and then ground back so no seam shows inside the bowl.
Join the apron
The apron face is welded to the bowl assembly and dressed flat.
Brush and treat
Interior and apron are brushed in one direction; the underside is coated if ordered.
Quality Control
- Both bowls are water-tested independently.
- The apron is checked for flatness against a straightedge — a bowed apron will not sit square in a cabinet.
- Weld lines are inspected inside the bowls before brushing.

Use Guide
Step 1
Confirm the cabinet aperture before ordering; apron sinks are fitted to the carcass, not cut into the worktop.
Step 2
Support the sink on rails, not on the worktop edge alone.
Step 3
Use one bowl for washing and keep the other clear so rinse water drains away.
Step 4
Wipe the apron dry after washing to avoid water marks on the brushed face.
Farmhouse Kitchen Sink Double Bowl Apron Sink — Frequently Asked Questions
Will it fit a standard farmhouse cabinet?
It is made to the aperture you give us. Send the carcass drawing and we will build to it rather than asking you to adapt the kitchen.
Can we have unequal bowls?
Yes — 60/40 and 70/30 splits are produced from the same fabrication.
Is the apron the same steel as the bowls?
Yes. The apron is part of the fabricated body, not a clip-on panel.
