How to install a dishwasher in laundry?

Hello there, 

 

Our kitchen is too small to install a dishwasher so we’re looking into installing a dishwasher in the adjacent laundry. 

Are you aware of a bracket that is strong enough to wall-mount a dishwasher or a front loader washing machine, so that either the dishwasher or

washing machine can sit on top of each other? I’ve attached a photo of the space - the fridge would go. 

Any help would be most appreciated! 

Thanks so much :smile:

Re: Installing dishwasher in laundry

Hello @yaz 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's wonderful to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about installing a dishwasher in your laundry. 

 

Before I make any recommendations, would it be possible for you to post a few photos of your kitchen? This will give our members a chance to assess the available space in the area. Perhaps we can then make recommendations on a possible location for the dishwasher.

 

I'm currently unaware of a dishwasher bracket, however you can build a strong table reinforced with steel brackets. I suggest using SpecRite 2400 x 900mm 32mm Timber Panel Pine Glulam FJ in conjunction with Zenith 14G x 75mm Galvanised Hex Head With Seal Timber Screws

 

Please remember to wear personal protection such as gloves, goggles and a mask if you decide to build the table.

 

We look forward to seeing the photos.

Thanks so much for your help, Eric! Most appreciated. We’ve had the kitchen assessed by a plumber and it’s not possible without a full kitchen renovation, which we’re not interested in doing at this stage. Your recommendation of a table is a good one.
