Wall Hung Vanity Units
Stylish Wall Hung Vanity Units for Modern Bathrooms
Wall hung vanity units are a smart choice for bathrooms, ensuites and cloakrooms where you want practical storage, a clean finish and a greater feeling of space. Also known as wall mounted vanity units or floating bathroom vanity units, these designs are fixed to the wall rather than standing directly on the floor. This gives your bathroom a more open look while making the area beneath the unit easier to clean.
At Home Bathrooms offers a wide choice of wall hung bathroom vanity units in popular sizes, colours and finishes. Whether you need a compact 500mm vanity unit for a small cloakroom, a practical 600mm wall hung vanity unit for an ensuite, or a larger 1200mm double vanity unit for a family bathroom, you can browse stylish options to suit your layout and budget.
Our wall mounted vanity unit range includes designs with ceramic basins, worktop-style surfaces, sit-on basins, drawer storage and coordinated finishes. From matt white and soft neutrals to darker tones, wood effects, fluted fronts and contemporary colours, this collection gives you plenty of ways to create a bathroom that feels organised, modern and easy to use.
Why Choose a Wall Hung Vanity Unit?
A wall hung vanity unit can make a big difference to the way your bathroom looks and functions. By raising the furniture from the floor, you create a lighter appearance and make more of the visible floor area. This is especially useful in smaller bathrooms, where bulky furniture can make the room feel cramped.
Wall mounted bathroom furniture is also highly practical. The storage drawers or cupboards keep everyday items close to hand, while the basin area stays neat and uncluttered. Instead of keeping toiletries, cleaning products and spare bathroom essentials on display, you can store them inside the vanity unit for a more streamlined finish.
Many customers choose wall hung vanity units because they offer:
-
A clean, contemporary bathroom look
-
Useful storage beneath the basin
-
Easier floor cleaning
-
A more spacious feel
-
Flexible installation height
-
Options for cloakrooms, ensuites and larger bathrooms
-
A wide range of finishes and basin styles
This makes them a popular option for full bathroom renovations and smaller updates alike.
Choosing the Right Size Wall Mounted Vanity Unit
The best wall hung vanity unit size depends on your room, plumbing position and storage needs. Before choosing a unit, measure the available wall space carefully and allow enough clearance for doors, drawers, shower screens and walkways:
500mm Wall Hung Vanity Units
A 500mm wall hung vanity unit is a great option for compact bathrooms, small ensuites and cloakrooms. It provides useful storage without taking up too much wall space. This size is ideal where you want to replace a pedestal basin with a neater, more practical solution.
600mm Wall Hung Vanity Units
A 600mm wall mounted vanity unit is one of the most popular choices for UK bathrooms. It offers a good balance between basin space and storage, making it suitable for ensuites, guest bathrooms and standard family bathrooms.
800mm Wall Hung Vanity Units
An 800mm wall hung vanity unit gives you more storage and a wider basin area while still feeling compact enough for many bathrooms. This size works well when you want extra drawer space without moving up to a large double unit.
1000mm Wall Hung Vanity Units
A 1000mm floating vanity unit creates a more generous focal point. It is well suited to medium and larger bathrooms where you want additional worktop-style space, wider drawers or a more substantial furniture piece.
1200mm Wall Hung Vanity Units
A 1200mm wall hung vanity unit is ideal for larger bathrooms and shared spaces. Many 1200mm designs include double basins or wider storage sections, making morning and evening routines easier for busy households.
Bathroom Finishes to Suit Your Bathroom Style
Wall mounted vanity units are available in a wide range of finishes, helping you match your furniture to the rest of your bathroom design. The current product range shown in the page screenshot includes options such as matt white, white gloss, shadow grey, country oak, midnight grey, matt latte, matt misty blue, matt apricot, textured walnut, green, oak, marble-effect surfaces and black finishes.
White wall hung vanity units remain a popular choice because they feel bright, clean and versatile. Grey vanity units suit many modern bathrooms and work well with chrome, black or brushed brass fittings. Wood-effect vanity units can add warmth, especially when paired with neutral tiles, stone-effect wall panels or soft lighting.
For a more design-led look, coloured vanity units can make the basin area stand out. Soft blue, green, apricot and latte tones can create a calmer, more personal bathroom scheme without overwhelming the space.
Vanity Units with Basins, Drawers and Worktop-Style Designs
When browsing wall hung vanity units, consider how you want the basin and storage to work. A vanity unit with an integrated basin gives a simple, practical finish and is easy to coordinate. A unit with a worktop-style surface and sit-on basin can create a more contemporary look, especially in wider sizes.
Drawer storage is particularly popular because it gives easy access to toiletries and bathroom essentials. Deep drawers can hold larger items, while divided storage helps keep smaller products organised. Some wall hung vanity units include one large drawer, while others feature two or more drawers for better separation.
Before ordering, check the product details carefully to confirm what is included. Some units include the basin, while others may require a separate basin, tap or waste.
Practical Buying Tips Before You Order
Before choosing your wall mounted vanity unit, think about the practical details as well as the style. Your wall must be suitable for supporting the unit, especially once the basin, water and stored items are added. Solid walls are usually more straightforward, while stud walls may need extra support.
You should also check your plumbing position. Wall hung vanity units often need neat pipework planning, particularly where drawers are involved. In some cases, your installer may need to adjust pipework so the drawers can open and close properly.
It is also worth considering:
-
Tap hole position
-
Basin shape and depth
-
Waste compatibility
-
Drawer clearance
-
Unit height
-
Wall strength
-
Matching tall units or storage furniture
-
Delivery times and product availability
Taking these details into account before purchase can help your installation run more smoothly.
Wall Hung Bathroom Furniture for a Cleaner, More Spacious Look
A wall hung vanity unit is one of the simplest ways to make a bathroom feel more considered. It lifts the furniture away from the floor, gives you valuable storage and helps the basin area look tidy. This makes it suitable for almost every type of bathroom, from small cloakrooms to large family spaces.
At Home Bathrooms offers a wide selection of wall hung vanity units in different widths, colours and configurations. Browse the range online, use the filters to narrow your search, and choose the size and finish that works best for your home.
