1-Door 500mm Freestanding Bathroom Vanity
Designed for compact Australian bathrooms, this 500mm freestanding vanity offers a practical single-door cabinet layout in a small footprint. Available with legs or kickboard, left or right hinge configurations, and multiple cabinet colours, it is a space-saving cabinet-only solution for powder rooms, ensuites and small bathroom renovations.
Space Saving
Compact 500mm Freestanding Design
The 500mm cabinet width is ideal for bathrooms where floor space is limited, such as powder rooms, ensuites and compact renovation layouts.
Its freestanding design provides useful everyday storage while keeping the vanity footprint small and easy to position within tight bathroom plans.
Base Options
With Legs or With Kickboard
Choose the legs configuration for a lighter furniture-style appearance with visible floor clearance, suitable for bathrooms that need a more open visual feel.
The kickboard configuration creates a fuller base and a more built-in look, giving the compact vanity a stronger grounded presence.
Flexible Access
Left or Right Hinged Door Options
The single-door cabinet is available with left or right hinge configurations, allowing you to choose the opening direction that best suits your bathroom layout.
This flexibility is helpful when working around walls, shower screens, toilet positions or nearby fixtures in smaller spaces.
Material Quality
Australian Polytec MDF Board
Crafted with Australian Polytec MDF board, this cabinet is designed to support everyday bathroom use while offering a clean finish across a wide range of colour options.
The vanity is free of glue and formaldehyde, making it a practical cabinet choice for family bathrooms and compact spaces where material safety and finish quality matter.
Note: This product is supplied as cabinet only and arrives assembled. Please confirm vanity colour, hinge side, base configuration and installation requirements before ordering. Colours may vary from batch to batch.
