Stainless Steel Spec SheetProduct Description
The Designline Bucket Sink Unit is a low-height, free-standing stainless steel sink station designed specifically for bucket filling in commercial kitchen and catering environments. It sits at a reduced working height to allow buckets to be placed directly beneath the fill point, and is intended for use alongside a wall-mounted overhead tap and a local floor gully rather than a conventional waste trap and pipework arrangement.
The unit is built around a deep stainless steel bowl with a waste outlet in the base, positioned directly over a floor gully to drain away. Above the bowl, a removable perforated steel insert acts as a bucket rest, holding the bucket steady whilst filling and allowing any overspill to drain cleanly into the bowl below. The worktop incorporates a rear upstand to protect the wall surface, and the frame is fitted with flanged levelling feet suitable for mechanical fixing to the floor.
In practical terms, this unit suits the kind of routine housekeeping tasks that every busy kitchen relies on — mopping, cleaning-in-place, and general water collection — without tying up a full-height pot wash or preparation sink. Key practical points to be aware of:
- Requires a wall-mounted overhead tap, supplied and fitted separately
- Drains via the bowl outlet directly to a floor gully — no waste trap or pipework included
- Taps, waste traps, and waste pipes are not supplied with the unit
- Flanged feet allow for solid, level fixing to the floor surface
This unit is well suited to kitchens where bucket filling is a regular task and a dedicated, low-level fill point would improve workflow without consuming valuable sink capacity. It works equally well in back-of-house corridors, pot wash areas, or cleaning bays. For sites with more demanding throughput or where a fully plumbed sink is required, alternative configurations may be more appropriate.
If you are unsure whether this unit will work with your existing tap position, floor gully layout, or drainage arrangement, we are happy to talk it through before you place an order.

Stainless Steel Spec SheetFrequently Asked Questions
- No — taps, waste traps, and waste pipes are not included. The unit is designed for use with a separately supplied wall-mounted overhead tap, and drainage is achieved by positioning the bowl outlet over an existing floor gully rather than connecting to conventional waste pipework.
- The bowl waste outlet sits over the floor gully rather than connecting to it directly, so the gully position needs to align with the footprint of the unit. It is worth confirming your gully location before ordering to make sure the unit can be positioned correctly.
- It works well in any area where bucket filling is a routine task — pot wash rooms, back-of-house corridors, and cleaning bays are all common locations. It is not a substitute for a full pot wash sink, but as a dedicated bucket-fill station it can reduce demand on your main sink run during busy service periods.
