Compact single bowl
The smallest Ergosteel option for compact accessible sink areas where a straightforward single bowl is enough.
Classic brushed stainless-steel kitchen sinks with 120mm shallow bowls, heat-protected undersides and flexible waste systems, designed to improve reach and preserve valuable knee space beneath accessible and height-adjustable worktops.
Shallow stainless steel · designed around seated access
Why a shallow sink matters
A conventional deep kitchen sink occupies a large volume beneath the worktop. For somebody approaching from a wheelchair, that can reduce knee clearance and force the user to sit further away from the bowl.
Granberg Ergosteel reduces the bowl depth to 120mm. The shallower form leaves more usable space below while also reducing the distance somebody has to reach down into the sink during everyday washing, rinsing and food preparation.
Combine that geometry with an open knee space or a height-adjustable worktop and the sink becomes part of an accessible working area rather than an obstacle beneath it.
Find your Ergosteel
The model number identifies the sink layout. Choose around the available worktop space and the way the sink will actually be used rather than simply selecting the largest bowl that will physically fit.
The smallest Ergosteel option for compact accessible sink areas where a straightforward single bowl is enough.
A simple one-bowl configuration with more overall sink space while retaining the same 120mm bowl depth.
Adds an integrated drying surface to a shallow single bowl and can be orientated with the drainer on either side.
Combines a main shallow bowl with a smaller secondary bowl without adding an external drainer.
A versatile layout combining a main bowl, secondary bowl and integrated draining surface. This is the Ergosteel model displayed in Kitchen One.
Two shallow bowls provide separate working areas without requiring an integrated external draining surface.
The largest Ergosteel configuration combines two 120mm-deep bowls with an integrated draining surface. The unit is reversible, allowing the wider layout to be adapted to the orientation of the kitchen.
120mm bowl depth
Bowl depth affects both sides of the worktop. Above it, a shallower sink reduces how far the user needs to reach down. Below it, the bowl occupies less of the space where a seated user's knees and legs may need to go.
That relationship becomes particularly important when the sink is fitted into a rise-and-fall worktop. Lowering a worktop with a conventional deep sink can bring the underside of the bowl uncomfortably close to the user's legs.

Ergosteel sits below the 150mm maximum sink depth identified in Approved Document M guidance for wheelchair-accessible dwellings.
Accessible kitchen guidance
In England, Approved Document M Volume 1 gives specific guidance for kitchens in M4(3) wheelchair-accessible dwellings. It states that the sink should be no more than 150mm deep.
The same guidance also calls for insulation to the underside to help protect a wheelchair user's legs from scalding. Ergosteel uses a 120mm bowl and includes a heat-insulation pad beneath the sink.
One range, two installation approaches
Ergosteel can be integrated into the worktop in two different ways, allowing the same accessible bowl geometry to work with different kitchen styles and worktop specifications.

More than the stainless-steel bowl
A shallow bowl only creates useful space if the waste, insulation and plumbing are considered with it. Ergosteel is supplied around that complete accessible sink arrangement.
A factory-fitted heat-protection pad helps reduce the risk from contact with a hot sink surface where the user's legs occupy the space below.
The waste arrangement is designed to occupy less space beneath the sink than a conventional deep trap arrangement.
Flexible drainage is particularly useful where the sink is installed within an electrically or manually height-adjustable worktop.
The sink package includes the appropriate waste components and overflow parts for the bowl configuration selected.

The accessible geometry does not force one particular kitchen aesthetic. Ergosteel, Trendline and Granite provide different materials and finishes while keeping shallow-bowl usability at the centre of the design.

Kitchen One includes an ES25 1½-bowl Ergosteel sink within the electrically height-adjustable Sidelift 6400 worktop. It is one of the best displays for seeing how shallow bowl depth, flexible plumbing, knee clearance and adjustable working height interact in practice.
