American Standard Lakewell Wall-Hung Cast Iron Service Sink With Plain Back and Rim Guard - AMS-7692000

The Lakewell is a wall-hung service sink, and the wall hanger is included with it. There are no legs or floor supports in the package, so the wall behind it has to be structurally capable of carrying a loaded cast iron basin. On stud framing that usually means adding blocking or a steel carrier-style backing before the hanger goes up.

No. This is the plain back version, meaning the basin has no integral splash panel behind it. If the sink sits against a finished wall you will want tile, FRP panel, or a separate stainless splash guard behind and above it, since faucet spray and mop splatter will hit bare wall. American Standard builds this basin in a plain back configuration specifically for installs where a wall-mounted service faucet and a separate splash panel are being used.

What ships is the cast iron basin with its stainless rim guard and the wall hanger. Faucet, trap, strainer, and supply stops are all separate. For a janitor closet most specs pair it with a wall-mounted service sink faucet with vacuum breaker, pail hook, and hose thread spout, plus a P-trap sized to the sink's drain outlet. Plan the rough-in with those items selected, because the faucet mounting is in the wall and not on the sink.

Enameled cast iron with a glossy porcelain finish, plus a stainless steel rim guard on the front edge. That rim guard is the part that matters for mop sink duty, it takes the impact of buckets and mop handles that would otherwise chip the enamel at the most exposed edge. Cast iron with a porcelain surface also cleans up after chemicals and cleaners better than a painted or coated basin.
