Half pedestals are the perfect addition to a modern bathroom where aesthetic needs to be maintained. A half pedestal adds an optical sense of space in the bathroom, making it feel more spacious. It covers the elements located under the washbasin and finishes the mounting of the bathroom sink aesthetically.
Which half pedestal to choose?
There are many types of half pedestals available in the market that can find their place in almost any bathroom. You can find ceramic half pedestals that are oval, square, oblong, all in various sizes. The market also has glass, wooden, and porcelain half pedestals. Each of these highlights the bathroom's character in a unique way. Style is mainly expressed through accessories, so it is worth taking the time to make the right choice to ensure satisfaction every day.
Ceramic half pedestals are classic, elegant, and aesthetic, making it easy to maintain cleanliness thanks to their sleek shapes. Wooden half pedestals add a warm atmosphere to characterful bathrooms, often appearing in the form of shelves, or irregular shapes that add a romantic touch to the room. Glass half pedestals are delicate, so investing in tempered glass, which is reinforced, is worthwhile. Porcelain half pedestals are delicate and suitable for small basins that do not put too much load on the suspended half pedestal.
Dimensions of half pedestals
It is quite crucial to fit the half pedestal to the washbasin. It's very important to check whether the width of the half pedestal matches the installed unit. The best option is to measure both the half pedestal and the washbasin to ensure everything will fit together. Manufacturers often provide information about which washbasin a particular half pedestal is suitable for.
On the market, you can find half pedestals with dimensions of 40, 50, or even 60 centimeters. Of course, there are also half pedestals available for corner sinks. Everything should be measured and installed properly. It is also worth checking the load capacity of a half pedestal, as it may turn out that the chosen washbasin might be too heavy, and the structure might not hold everything. Therefore, it's very important to appropriately match the washbasin and the half pedestal, as well as to check their load-bearing capabilities, so everything looks and functions well for a long time.
