There are 2 (and only 2) positions to fit an S-Box™ unit:
Either: A - Surface-mounted
Or: B - 'Inset' at -20mm below surface.
A - SURFACE MOUNT
This simplest installation method is to insert it straight into a cut-out hole →
The fitted collar sits neatly on the worktop surface. Its own weight will keep it there. Please do not use any
adhesive or sealant. (A shallow rebate can also be used if preferred to create a flush finish)
OPTION 1
In either of these surface-mount methods, it is also possible to 'personalise' the unit, by replacing the
steel top with a piece of matching material to the work top if required.
Maximum thickness of any material is 12mm. The Collar can be adjusted upwards to relevel it with that
new material. Then please follow counterbalance "re-weight" instructions shown later in this guide.
B - 'INSET' or REBATED – The Unique Custom ("chameleon") Installation)
This method involves the installation of the unit at exactly 20mm below the Counter-top surface so that the
product can be fully disguised into its location with a custom top that matches its surroundings. This is
known as an "Inset" or rebated method. The maximum thickness of this custom top is also 12mm.
In worktop materials of 30mm thickness and above, the installation is achieved by sitting the collar on a
rebate shelf within the material.
For materials of 20mm thickness, installation is achieved by sitting the collar on a "false" rebate, created
by using a second material below it.
