Undercounter mount sinks mount directly to the underside of countertop material. This installation provides a flush mounting making it easy to clean. To mount a sink in this manner, an undercounter mount installation kit is available separately.
Tile-edge sink corners are squared off to more closely resemble the tiles on countertop. The sink is mounted flush with the tile and sealed in with grout. This type of installation also makes it easy to clean directly into the sink.
Self-rimming sinks have rounded corners and mount on the surface of the countertop material. This is the easiest type of installation, requiring only adhesive caulk to seal the sink in place.
