As Solid Surfaces NY is a completely custom countertop fabrication factory, norms and set standards for overhangs are flexible and decided on a case-by-case basis. It has been our experience, however, that our clients will often decide on overhangs that fall into the following ranges:
– Doors: 1 ½” to 2” overhang from base cabinet
– False Doors: 1 ½” to 2” overhang from base cabinet
– Flat Panels: 1” to 1 ½” overhang from base cabinet
– Peninsula Eating Bars: 8” to 12” overhang from base cabinet
– Island Eating Bars: 8” to 12” overhang from base cabinet
– High Bars: 8” to 12” overhang from base cabinet (min. finished width 15”)
Please note, the above information is useful as a planning guide only. We recommend following the advice of a designer or a staff member of Solid Surfaces as they will be able to evaluate your specific design requirements.
