Bathroom sinks generally consist of one to three holes that are in the rim, deck, countertop, or wall above the sink. It’s important to select the right faucet type that will work with where you are planning to install it.

After you have determined where your faucet will be installed for your sink, you should make sure to measure the exact distance between the center of the far-left hole to the center of the far-right hole. This way, you are sure to get the right product to fit your sink the first time around.

The following are the different types of sink configurations and the faucet types that are applicable to each:

• If there is one hole in the sink or counter, a single-hole bathroom sink faucet is needed.
• If there are three holes that spread four inches apart (from the center of the left hole to the center of the right hole), a four-inch minispread or centerset faucet will best fit your sink application.
• If there are three holes that spread eight inches apart (from the center of left hole to the center of the right hole), an eight-inch widespread faucet will be your best bet.
