Hi we are getting our bathroom done and have a gap of 75cm between the wall and door where we want to put a vanity unit and sink.
Would you get a 600 unit or 700 to fit in the space?

I'd really value your opinions.

Is the 75 to the door, frame or architrave? I think I'd go for 600 anyway as too small a gap by a door can seem awkward as you walk into a room, and to make it easier to clean.

If overall room size get a wall hung unit: will make whole room seem
a lot bigger.

Meant to say if overall room size is small.....go wall hung for everything you can: basin, loo, cupboards etc

But don't you have to build a fake wall to put the support of the wall hung vanity in?

I guess if it were just a stud wall you might have an issue but I have never had to do it:, and I have refurbed quite a few. What I did do when there were young kids in house is put thin legs hidden under the bulk of the vanity unit to give extra support. Invisible unless you got on your hands and knees and looked for them but we were worried about kids clambering on top.

Thanks we'd considered wall hung but going for floor standing as three heavy handed men in the house lol.
The room isn't really small prob average but where we want to move the sink to the gap is 75 to the architrave. So trying to picture what would look best.
