Grommets

This will be indicated by a text note.

The default location unless otherwise noted: Maintain a minimum 1” distance from the edge of the hole to the back/side of the material.

• Dual Grommets: Must be placed a minimum 1” distance from the edge of the hole to any adjacent parts. Ensure they do not conflict with any partition hardware.

• This will allow for strength in the countertop; the closer you get to the edge, the weaker the edge becomes.

If the location is unclear, reach out to the design consultant for clarity.

Use the table below to determine the measurements for the grommet you are installing.

The default location unless otherwise noted: Maintain a minimum 1” distance from the edge of the hole to the back/side of the material.

• Dual Grommets: Must be placed a minimum 1” distance from the edge of the hole to any adjacent parts. Ensure they do not conflict with any partition hardware.

Measure 1” (unless otherwise indicated from DC) + grommet center point from the back of the material. Make a mark.

• For example, if installing a square grommet, measure 1” + 7/8” from the back.

Measure 1” (unless otherwise indicated from DC) + grommet center point from the side of the material Make a mark.

• For example, if installing a square grommet, measure 1” + 7/8” from the side.

Extend markings to intersect

Double check measurements (measure twice, drill once) and confirm there are no obstructions (modesty panels, hardware, wrap panels, etc.) below the cut.

Place the center of the hole saw against the intersection of marks.

Complete the cut.

• Use both hands to stead the tool.

• Do not apply too much pressure as the tool builds speed; allow the saw to cut through the material naturally.

• If both sides of the material will be visible, begin the cut from one side, and complete the cut from the other side using the drilled hole as a position guide. This will ensure a cleaner cut on both sides.

• If only one side of the cut is visible, cut from one side.

Insert the male side of the grommet through the cut hole.

Make a mark on the grommet from the other side of the partition (to mark the depth required for the grommet).

Cut the male side of the grommet 1/8” short of the mark.

Place the grommet bottom side into the hole.

Square Grommets: Secure the grommet by screwing the nut onto the grommet from underneath.

Dual Grommets: Place male end into the female end and snap together.

Use a flat screwdriver and place it through various holes in the hole saw to pry the material off of the center drillbit.

Measure from a vertical reference point (shelf, countertop, floor) to the center of the outlet

Measure from a horizontal reference point (wall, partition) to the center of the outlet

Drill a hole inside each corner of the marked rectangle using a ¼” bit

With a jigsaw, cut along each line to connect each dot using a down cut blade

Square out each corner

Using rag and water or cleaner, wipe off any remaining pencil marks
